From Parsons Weekly.

From Parsons Weekly.
ITO enumerate one-tenth of the queer
decisions under which people suffer" said
a popular physician to Pearson's Weekly
representative, who was seeking some in
formation on the subject would take a
much longer time than either you or l
have 10 spare. However l can tell you of
one or TWO strange decisions which occur
10 me. In times of hysterical excitement,
especially like the present when the contin-
entail outlook is not as agreeable as it
might be. the number of deluded persons is
very materially increased. A war scare
creates no end OF harmless lunatics-per-
haps il would be better TO say that il
brings their idiosyncrasies out-who per-
senate mighty warriors and profess to be
eager to lead The troops, despite the fact
that pop-gun is about the most terrible
instrument they have ever handled.
At the present moment there are sew
eral people going about who imagine them
selves 70 be the German emperor; while if
England had a war with Russia there
would certainly be a few Tsars walking
Up Regent street. The reason of this is
that weak minded persons are very apt to
imagine themselves TO be anybody who is
attracting attention al the moment mus,
during the Tichbourne trial, there were
several Tichbournes in the world. Even
during the progress Of a big murder trial
some shaky individuals appropriate the
name OF the prisoner and apply IL to them
selves in instructed outburst of self

WHAT POLITICS DEMANDS.
Lots OF Sacrifices. but They Should BE En-.
dured.

0ureu.
Politics so often deals with ignoble things
things OF the earth, earthly" things
of tho pocket, Of the sewer, Of the gutter;
with disagreeable people, disagreeable
places. Patient labor, self denial, sacrifice
are needed. Comfort, pleasure, ~luxuries,
necessities must be given up to insure sue
cess. Rebuffs, insults, calumny, ridicule,
defeat and disaster must be met and over
come. This Is the environment, these the
factors, which confront the earnest, patri'
otto man.
The prospect herein outlined Is not en-.
oouraging. No wonder that young men OK
refinement, of ambition, of honesty, of as
piration, glowing with patriotic purpose,
eager to serve their fellow men, shrink
from the heroulean task confronting them
here. But this is the place, and here are
the materials, where and with which great
souls have labored and have been victori-
Gus. Liberty, Justice, equality, education
and progress in every direction have been
set free from just such elements as these,
or worse than these, and have emerged
shapes of glory and strength to gladden.
