THE PooR CHOIR BOY.
Too Many Sermons Are Turning Him
Into Heather.

Too Many Sermons Are Turning Him
Into a Heather.
From the London Telegraph.
In pictures and In story books cathedral
choristers seem the perfection of limo
cence and contentment, but 1t appears
that their lot-especially that of young
boys-is not altogether such a happy one
as artists and authors attempt to make
out. A movement has therefore been in
augufated for the amelioration of the fate
of these youthful cherubs, not only in ca
thedrals, but in parish churches and pri-
vate chapels which have their choir
schools where the lads are resident. The
chief grievance they have is that they
are compelled to listen to so many ser
mons that they first become listless and
Indifferent, and ultimately are quite de-
moralized through too much theology.
Such a result is, indeed deplorable. No
greater calamity could befall youth than
to be preached into a state of infidelity
Most people find one sermon week quite
enough, even with the nepenthal aid of
forty winks during Its delivery; what then
must be the WEAKNESS of young choris-
tiers who have two sermons on Sunday
besides others on holy days and on spe-
cial occasions, funerals, dedication serv-
ices and such like? This continual SER
monizing simply sends the lads into a
state of collapse. Admittedly, it is. diff
cult to find a remedy, because the dis
courses have to be preached and the choir
has to sing, and it would be unseemly to
permit the latter to march out the mo-
ment the clergyman entered the pulpit
or TO allow them to slumber through the
sermon. The only remedy feasible appears
to be a diminution of the choir, except on
Sundays, which would give the lads an
OCCASIONAL relief from a surfeit of theol-

When yellow fever made its appearance
among the troops around Santiago every
man Remained at his post and faced the
dGnger without hinching. Men from the
North who had never seen the disease ac-
cepted the detail for duty in the fever
hospitals without a word OF complaint
THE first and most important duty #
the military surgeon Is to prevent dis
ease This can often be done more effect
lively by example than by precept. The
military surgeon must be known in camp
as a gentleman, not only by officers, but
BY every man under his charge, If he ex-
poets to be respected and to do justice
to his high calling and responsible position.
The first and most important duty of
the military surgeon during active war
fare is to prevent disease and unnecessar y
suffering by giving early advice and re-
sorting to timely precautions. The loca-
lions Of camps, policing of the same, the
water supply food and clothing are sub
jects which must receive his early and
earnest attention In this work he should
receive the hearty corporations of the
officers in command, and IL this is not
the case, he has the moral and military
authorities to do it. 1t was not the mcdi-
cal department, but the arrogance or stu
pidity Of the commanding general OF the
invading army that is responsible for the
extensive outbreak of yellow fever during
the Cuban campaign This experience is
sufficient to teach commanding generals
that 1t Is unsafe IN the future 10 allow
such an example as an inprudence OF this
kind, giving rise to inexcusabe slaughter
and indescribable suffering viii meet with
