Who's Gambetta?

"Your improvised chiefs of the ma
tional defense are simply SO many
knights Of the pavement" (chevaliers
du pave), said Bismarck to Jules Favre
at their interview at Ferrieres fort
night after the fall of the second empire.
Bismarck was not absolutely within the
truth, though he was very near to it,
but in this instance he reflected the feel
ings of the courts Of Europe with regard
to the men whom we now complacently
term "the founders of the third repub-
lic." Europe had heard of Jules Favre
himself, of Jules Simon, of Garnier-
Page, of Eugene Pelletan (the father Of
Camille Pelletan), but Gambetta, Pi-
card, Ferry, Glais- -Bizoin and half doz-
en- others, who suddenly professed to
pick up the sword that had fallen pow
erless from the hands Of the marshals of
France, in order to stem the tide Of for
eign invasion, they did not know. It is
doubtful whether the French them
selves, outside of Paris, knew much
about their self elected would be saviors.
When on the 9th of September, 1870,
Victor Hugo, his son and daughter,
Nine. Drouais, and several friends left
Brussels for Paris, where the poet ex-
pected triumphal welcome, their train
was brought to stop ut Maubeuge by
the side of another containing part of
Vinoy's army that had escaped the dis
aster of Sedan. Men and horses were
huddled pellmell in cattle trucks, the
men silent and depressed, brooding over
their unexpected and blastlike defeat.
Hugo tried to cheer them. He leaned
out of his carriage and shouted: "Vive
la France! Vive la republique" but
there was no response, not even when
Nine. Drouais told the men who was
speaking to them. On the platform,
though, just as the train moved once
more, franc tireur waived his kept and
yelled: "Vive la republiquei Vive

Victor Hugo and Politics.

Victor Hugo, in spite of everything
that has been said to the contrary, was
distinctly not republican at the outset
Of his career, and it is more than ques-
tionable whether he would have ever
become the blatant one he did if Louis
Philippe and Louis Napoleon had con-
sented to take him at his own valuation
as statesman. Beranger, who was a
republican pure and simple, notwith-
standing his supposed share in the es-
tablishment Of Louis Philippe on the
French throne, summed up Victor
Hugo's republicanism in one line. One
day, shortly after the February revolu-
tion which overtopped that throne-as
it would seem forever-an acquaintance
Of Beranger met him coming out of the
Palais Bourbon. II shall feel Obliged"
the poet said. "if you will see me home,
for do not feel at all we'll. Those vio-
lent scenes inside there are not to my
taste.''
This, pointing to the erstwhile resi-
dence Of the illegitimate daughter of
Louis XIV by Nine. de Montespan, bet
ter known as the widow of that mis-
chievous dwarf Louis, third duke de
Bourbon Conde, the small minded and
small bodied son Of the great Conde. 81

but not one such as we are having in
there" And his hand pointed once more

his interlocutor. "Victor Hugo is in the

HAVE YOU NEURALoIAf


Something About That lfaddsning III That
Flesh IL Heir To.
Though It may appear strange to rs
who think we are familiar with the
commoner forms of neuralgia, or nerve
pain, such as toothache, headache and
the like, IL is not easy always to say
whether the pain we are suffering be
really neuralgia pure and simple.
In point of fact, neuralgia is q name
for a condition rather than disease,
and only implies that in the course Of
tbs nerve in question there is pain that
is not caused by any disease Of the parts
supplied by that nerve or Of the nerve
itself.
The causes of neuralgia, then, are to
be found in conditions outside Of the
trouble itself. For instance, there may
be tumor pressing upon the nerve and
continually irritating it. In the same
way foreign bodies, such as bullets, may
set up persistent neural lsia. Ends Of
nerves, by becoming involved in the
contraction of scar, may become suf1-
ciently compressed to give rise to un-
bearable pain. Sometimes veins that
are near nerves, or follow their course
through long, bony canals, become suffi-
ciently distended to irritate the nerve.
Or there may be poison in the blood,
like malaria, arsenic or lead, which, by
lowering the general vitality Of the
body, contributes to general nerve
weakness and irritability.
In large proportion of cases the real
cause of neuralgia is so general as to be
quite obscure. The exciting cause-or
occasion-of single attack of neural
gia is usually getting chilled or over
exercising the part subject to the COM
plaint
AS many Of us know by experience,
the course Of an attack Of neuralgia is
extremely varied. The pain may be con-
tinuous, remittent or intermittent, tenn
porary or persistent, located at one spot
or diffused over large area, and may
be shooting, aching or burning in char
acter.
By way Of treatment we may use To-
cally any good liniment, blistering, hot
lamentations or electricity. Iron and
quinine are Of the greatest value inter-
nally, especially where the system is
run down or there is malarial taint
in the blood. Antirheumatics must, Of
course, be resorted to in cases Of rheu-
matte origin. In these latter cases there
is nothing like absolute rest and regular
and nourishing diet.
Morphine or other opiates should be
used but sparingly in neuralgia, and
never in cases Of debility or old age

KATIE AND THE oLO GUITAR.

The sweetest strain that ever
Ny raptured ears have heard
know that memory never
Can lose single word
Was on balmy evening
That crowned a summer day
When Katie tuned the old guitar
And sang my heart away.
The happy starlight beaming
Upon her lily throat
Set wistful fancy dreaming
With every haunting note.
Il was no idle ballad,
No senseless modern lay;
With "Bonnie Annie Laurie" 10,
She sang my heart away.
And when the song was over
And Katie breathed a sigh,
She, too, could boast lover
Who would lay him down and die.
Twas then told my secret,
And still ! bless the day
When Katie tuned the old guitar
And sang my heart away.
