English Medical Union.

combination among members of the
same trade or profession being one Of
the most prominent features Of the age,
1T is not surprising to learn that the no.
tion of a medical union should be in the
air. According to medical correspond
ent of The Times, the scheme now un-
der consideration proposes to combine
the entire profession in union pledged
not to accept less than fixed minimum
fee from any patient~yho is not either
q subscriber to general provident fund
or entitled to poor law medical relief.
That the doctor is hard worked
member Of a noble profession who de-
serves all he is paid-and, we may add,
is not always paid all he deserves-will
be conceded by every fair minded per-
son to be beyond dispute. But, with re-
gard to the question of medical union
on the lines proposed, two objections at
once occur. In the first place, it would
be extremely difficult, not to say practi-
cally impossible, to unite all the mem
bers of a calling which includes thou
sands OF persons in union based upon
uniform rate of payment. Many strug-
CLING practitioners would be found who
would always be glad to take what fees
they could get, and they would do SO.
Secondly, any hard and fast rule Of that
kind would be impossible to enforce.
The relations between doctor and pa.
tient are SO complex and patients in
comes are of such infinite variety that
it would not be practicable to fix an ir-
reducible minimum of payment
The practice of the profession is to
charge patients according to the rent
they pay for their houses or other indi-
cations of their financial position, and
that is so eminently reasonable system
that one does not either expect or desire
to see it abandoned. A profession which
deals with the issues of life and death
cannot be treated on the same footing as
an ordinary calling. When one is i'll,
one sends for the doctor, and the doctor,
when sent for, comes without consider
alton on either side as to the precise
amount of the fee. That is human ma
ture, of which, we are happy to say,
doctors have quite as much as other
people. On the whole, we are not very
sanguine as to the success of a doctors
trade union on the basis proposed
London Times.

While King George Of Greece was

Denmark, had cut his name with a dia-

mediately cut his name. Then came the
kaiser, who added his name to those of

be heard clear round the world. Mr..

Canals Easily Wrecked.

The ease with which ship canals may
be rendered useless in time of war has
always been brought forward as an ar
gument against dependence being placed
on these waterways for strategical pur-
poses. An illustration to the point has
happened in connection with the North
sea-Baltic canal, the German fleet which
is to take part in the coming naval ma
neuvers being unable to pass through it,
as ordered, on account of Danish yes
sci which was sunk at the south end of
the canal some time ago blocking up

and Color Effects.

For many seasons past if = gown was
made with revers, the number used was
always two. Invariably these revers
were an exact counterpart of each other
Not only in coloring and design were
they alike, but they were the same size
and placed on the gown directly oppo-
site one another.
Now the best dressmakers are no
longer partial to two revers. Either one
Or three are used on the most fashiona-
BILE gowns.
One large revers is regarded as very
chic. It is usually Of the same material
as the bodice and is richly braided or
covered with lace.
When three revers are used, they are
always graduated in size. The first re-
vers is the smallest, the other two acting
as its background.
They look best in three tints of one
color, but all sorts of very pretty color
effects are possible with them.-New

The Sad, Sad Sea,

"What makes the sea so sad, motherp"
Whispered a little child.
"Why do the pillows sigh and break,
And why arc the waves so wildp"
"The rivers run down to the sea
With all their grief, my lad,
And flood the sea with their misery,
And that's why the sea is sad.
"The Hudson goes with Gotham's woes,
And Paris chokes the Seine.
The Danube blue and the dark Thames, too
All hurry to the main.
Losing the song of the running rill,
But keeping all that's bad,
They flood the sea with their misery,
And that's why the sea is sad"

Blow, winds, your rage but shakes the tree
And roots it surer in it's placel
Scatter your rain, ye Clouds and free
The buds that wait your frowning gracei
Roll down, river, to the sea
And widen in your onward race!
Peace through a sunny span may keep
His garden in some quiet glen,
While others sow for him and reap
And tend his hocks on moor and fen.
Tho flowers of peace are death and sleep.
The strife of living makes us men
All, joy it is to win the goal
BY tireless work and dauntless will
Yet may the life rise orbed and whole
From clouded hopes and loss and i'll.

And failure SO is victory still.

One lesson which in every wind is blown
One lesson of two duties kept at one,
Though the loud world proclaim their enmity,
OF toll unsevered from tranquility;
or labor, that in lasting fruit outgrows
Far noisier schemes accomplished in repose,
Too great for haste, too high for rivalry.
Yes while on earth a thousand discords ring,
Mans senseless uproar minging with his toll.
Still do thy quiet ministers move on,
Their glorious task in silence perfecting,
Still working, blaming still our vain turmoil,
Laborers that shall not fail when man is gone

Ballads Manufactured by Loyal College
Poets to Urge on Their Team to Victory
or Rally Them In Defeat-Some of the
Best That Have Been Sung This season.
One of the most interesting features
Of all the big football matches and one
in which many Of the spectators take as
mitch interest as in the game itself is
the cheering and singing of college
songs that goes on before and during
the progress of the game. Every year
before game the poets of the different
colleges set to work to evolve new songs
to inspire their teams on to victory.
This year the number of songs has
been more profuse than ever, and much
time was spent BY the students in learn
ing the words and airs of their new
ballads. Here are some of the lyrical
gems at the Yale-Princeton game in
New York. The Yale men sang this to
the tune Of "Hold the Fort:''
Line up, rushers; line up briskly;
Line up with will!
We have always beaten Princeton,
And we always will.
CHORUS.
Hold the ball, for Hinkey's coming:
Fincke will signal still;
Benjamin goes through the center
Win we must and will!
Baird will try in vain to drop kick:
Chadwick rushes through;
Hildebrand is fun for Rodgers:
Cochran s looking blue.
Bass and Connor tackle surely,
One at either end;
Chamberlain holds fast at center;
Murray will not bend.
Murphy makes hole at tackle;
Hine will make his gain;
Princeton tries to stop Yales rushes,
But she tries in vain.
Line up, rushers; line up briskly;
Line up with a will!
We have always beaten Princeton,
And we always will.
