The country is being cleared quietly
tor the necessities and luxures OF Eng
lish) humanity" The foolish Young
people who go away without adequate
cause are at once sacrificing themselves,
lnJurlng their country, and playing at
the expense OF both the game OF the
enemies OF both. The old, blind, and
afflicted generally are left at home in
numbers out OF all natural proportion
to the remnant OF the population; the
effective portion OF this remnant have
to support another population in poor
houses and hospitals, swarm of Off
Gals in those institutions, an armed po-
lice force quite ten times too numerous
for the requirements OF this compare
lively crimeless country, and hungry
crew OF landlords and agents; and in
addition to supporting all those non
producing people, must bear portion
OF the cost OF unjust wars from which,
whether successful or not, this country
never derives any advantage. What re-
mains after these payments, if anything
remains, we are permitted to enjoy and
expected to be thankful for. The
United Irish League is striking at every
root and every branch OF this whole
system, and in nothing is its action
more praiscworthy than in its direct
efforts and the whole tendency OF its
policy to keep the young people at
home.

swell In neckwear and shirts all the
novelties Of the season are shown; the
same beautiful colors that are so mark
ed in women's wear are shared by the
men.
The Easter decorations in the Big
