THE GENERAL PRACTITIONER.
He must not walk his rounds, for fear his
patients think him poor
And dearly do they love to see a carriage
at their door
And if his horse is fat, "He must have lit
work to do"
And If it's lean, the reason is. He starves
tho poor old screw"
Should he cali upon his patients every day
when they are III,
His motive plainly is ITO make a great
big ooCtOr's bill"
If he visits them less frequently-thus
lcss'ning their expense
The chances are he'll be accused Of willful
negligence.
He must work all day and half the night
and never say he's tired,
For the public look upon him simply as a
servant hired;
And should he take n holiday, he'll find
when he comes back
Some patients have resented II by giving
him the sack"
Concerning money, he must seem indffer-
ent to be,
and folks will think he practices for pure
philanthropy;
When we hear about him boasting OF the
guineis that he earns.
We wonder II they all appear in his in
como tax returns.
About his own Affections he must never
say a word,
The notion Of a doctor being i'll is SO alb.
surd.
ANA when, perhaps from over-work, he's
laid upon the shelf
His sympathizing patients say, "Physl-
clan heal thyself"

HISTORIC 81, PETERS.
An Old Colonial Church In New hent Ne"'
Providence Forge.

PROVIDENCE FORGE. VA" March
o.-Speclal.-Among the oldest colonial
churches in Virginia is, ! suppose. 81
Peters. 1t is situated in New Kent
county. about eight miles from ProT OIL
dence Forge. and is Immediately on INC
old stage road that leads from Rlchnlonu
IN WILLIAMSBURG. This ROAD Is men men
toned I'm history, as undoubtedly IL "a"
a great thoroughfare in colonial uayS,
and the sight of handsome equipdses
dashing along was not unIrequen' ~
doubt George Washington, Thomas Je1erss =
con patrick Henry and many more OF
Virginia's most illustrious sons nave lIe-
ouently journeyed along this broad road'
en- route to the old capital ,
4 look at the old church SHOWS pIdiHiS
that il was built in the good old days
when durability was more sought altei
than now. And although 1t has stooI
the storms of nearly two centuries anu
undoubtedly It's massive walls nave peeH
shaken by the roar Of cannon, as II mas
stood through several wars, sun u loohs
as calm and peaceful as If 1t had he'er
known else. -.
The old church is still in a good state
of renairs The interior, while IL has
been somewhat moderniZed. is very i'm
nosing. Near the front entrance is a
narrow flight of stairs, that lead up
TO one or more small rooms. and this.
| was told was where the rector lived
i'm early days. 1t was truly. gloomy,
am still little dubious about 1t, but such
seems to be the impression.
Like most colonial churches. II has a
burying-ground about it, and likely many
of Nirgina's noble sons and far
daughters are resting there.

ADMIRAL BEARDsLEE AND PEARL
HARBOR.

Editorial ignorance of Hawaiian
politics and geography has placed
more than one American writer In
ludicrous position and subjected
this country to not little misrep-
resentation. That a certain amount
of this is not due to malice of fore
thought is evidenced by the follow
ing from the New Orleans Tines
Democrat, leading paper Of the
South:
We publish in our teIegraphic col
umns rumor which cDmes via Vic
toria that Admiral Bea rdslee has taken
possession of Pearl HaTbOr aud de-
clared a pIOtectOrate over the Ha-
waiian Islands. Even in these days,
when E. gland is parceling out Africa
and Asia between herself and other
powers, this rumOr is incredible; fl st,
because Pearl Harhor has been coded
to the United States for a coaIing sta
ton, and secondly, because 10 Is so
we'll known to England that the
United States regards her Interest in
Hawaii rs predominant. II the unex-
pee ed has happened, and if the Brit
ish flag has actually been raised over
Hawaii, the act of tn Admiral will
be di-owned by the British Cabinet
as soon as IL is fficIally Informed of
il. Any other course would provoke
the people of the United States to
dangerous extremity.
Had the above appeared in the
New York Herald we should imme-
diately infer that James Gordon
Bennett had just returned from
Europe, and in the usual over
turning Of his editorial force had
put the elevator boy in the editors
chair. 1t will be a good many
years before the good Yankee Ad-
miral, Beardslee, raises a British |
flag over Pearl Harbor. 1t appears
that the Admiral has been to Pearl |
Harbor once during his stay here.
He with party of officers went 10
Ford's island pheasant shooting,
remained over night, had good
time and returned much refreshed
by the twenty-four hours outing.
And the Hawaiian flag still holds
sway over Pearl Harbor. If an
editor doesn't know his
oHn Admiral it is perhaps severe
TO condemn him for what he does
not know about Hawaii.
