THE FLEETING SHOW.
Some of It's Facts and Fancies.
written for the JOURNAL AND COURIER. 1

TREASURES.
Mr.. Walter Besant, who has discussed
the subject of women and work with more
vigor than Judgment, has still something
very kind and courteous and appreciative
to say of one class of workers, namely,
those willing and unselhsh ones who used,
until the world grew wiser, be spoken of
contemptuously as ''old maids"
Writing about single women he says:
"The noble work-the eelf- sacrificing
work-the truly unselfsh work-that is
done by thousands of single women We
must all acknowledge with the deepest
gratitude and admiration. Everywhere We
come upon them, working now for their
married sisters or their brothers-veritabls
Pillars of the House; now for the poor;
now for the sick; now for the young; now
for those, vast army, who want a little
help to tide over troubled time; now for
the Church-always for other people.
There is no one whom the world, which
too often takes as . right the most COM
plete sacrifice of it's workers, ought to re-
| spect and to revere so much as the single
woman who gives up her life-her
thoughts, her heart, her time-for the sake
/ Of Others"
Most of us have known ono such person
| as is here described, and of some Of them
.tths world was not worthy" or at least
/ that corner of II in which their lives were
set. They toiled early and late, they were
| spent in the service of others, they receiv-
ed in return only shelter and food, receiv-
ing whatever else was occasionally bestow-
ed 90 evidences of afectionate generosity
of the part of those for whom they were
literally wearing themselves ont. No
money estimate WAS ever placed upon their
/ services, nor did they ever realize, any
more than they whom they served, how In.
dispeneable were their services to the fam
Ny veal. When they died they were
greatly missed because Of the inconveni
ence to which tho household was subjected
by the loss Of Its busiest, Its ever reliable
worker. Such single women there viii
ever be, 30 long as eel6shness prevails ir
the makeup of some characters and unset
6shness predominates In others. But pos
sibly they will be better understood ani
more thoroughly appreciated as society
passes from the half-civilized to the civil
lied and enlightened state.
The very thing that Mr.. Beeant deplores
the ambition Of women for work and thei
continual and effcacious pushing out int,
!, new fields of endeavor, is helping to plac
the single woman In very comfortabl
and even enviahle position. Even th
name once used in reproach and ridicul

MAKE IT PROSECUTOR TOO.
The Register initiates the curious action
of the jury in the Lee case and shakes
hands with the cool young Canadian who
has been 80 unlucky ss to be twice caught
in tho immediate nsighborhood of crime
and SO lucky as to be twice legally cleared
Of any fault but that of being too devoted
to a philsnthrop:c profession. And the
Register goes even further than the jury
did. It not only finds DR.. Lse not guilty
and shakes hands with him, but It fnds
the officers of the law who have prosecuted
him guilty.
This is indeed turning of the tables
The sworn officers of the law, who have
had almost as much experience in dealing
with crime as the Register has, and who
became convinced from the testimony laid
before them that 1t WAS their duty to pros
ecute DR.. Lee, are now judioislly and
judiciously told by the Register that they
don't know their business and that they
haven't used their power and their respon-
sibil,ty sright. This intelligent and i'm
partial decision hasn't, of course, all the
weight that decision by the Supreme
court of the State would have, but 1t may
rank q little above Superior court
decision, for, as the Register has
recently shown contempt for the Superior
court, 1t is supposable that itdid SO because
1t felt more competent to do the right
thing than that court is. As We do not
wish to be found In contempt of anything
that feels entitled 10 have contempt of the
Superior court We shall not say that the
Registers addition to the jury's verdict Is
at all wrong, but we shall dif6dently and
respectfully call its attention to fact or
two which may have some influence In
mitigation of sentence. Prosecuting Off
GERS have to do the best they can with
what 10 laid before them. They can
not always wait to ask the advice
of the Registers Masters of Arts
who sit In solemn. and Solomonic
Judgment on men and things. And they
cannot foresee In any given case that the
defense will have the powerful assistance
of the Register. So they must do the best
they can in their poor, feeble way and
hope that even If they cannot win the sp-
proval of the Register, they may be able
to win the approval of their own made
quate sense of duty.
We hope 1t will not always be thus.

MKnIQAL MOTIFS.

It gives us pleasure to record that at
last the true easus belli, 80 to speak, has
been discovered. That dread and fashion
able disease appendicitis is not caused by
cherry stones, grape seeds, orange seeds,
or any other seeds. The bacteria are not
In 1t. What then Is the trouble7 1t is, Ii
is the grip. "a prominent physician"
who has cut off many vermiform appen-
dices says that grip produces cstarrhsl
condition of the vermiform appendix that
finally, in some cases, induces the state of
acute Inflammation to which the name ap-
pendicitis is applied. This seems entirely
reasonable when the resources of the grip
are borne in mind. We move that appen-
dicitis be laid to the grip for awhile. The
grip deserves the worst that can be said
of 1t.
With minds satisfied with An explanation
that explains, let US turn once more to the
contemplation of the beautiful bacteria,
some 200 ,000, 900 or so of which have late
Iy been found in q church communion
cup. The scientific people at Johns Hop.
kins university, who perhaps know as
much about the bacteria as anybody, offer
| us crumb of comfort. At the last month
| ly meeting of the Scientific Association of
the Johns Hopkins university Professor
Ira Remsen rose and thanked DR.. Barker,
who in the course of his address had
shown that the body is amply able to pro-
tect itself from bacteria. Professor Rem
sen said that the fact that the bacteria were
not 30 fearful and their effect not so dead.
ly should become known to those who are
afraid to drink water and almost to
breathe the air for fear of the bacteria
DR.. Barker said that there are bacteria oil

of us, and that the body hai
