"Change Your Physician"

The following aneodote, says the Ledger
Monthly, is related OF DR.. Rujean, the
most celebrated man of the medical pro-
fession in his time:
A certain great lady came to him in
much distress about her daughter, and the
physician began the investigation of the
case by asking:
why what ais herr"
"Alas DOCTOR" replied the mother, "I
cannot tell; but she has lost her humor,
her looks. her health. Her strength con-
sumes every day, and We fear she can
not live"
Why do you not try TO induce her to
marry some worthy young man?'
ALAS, doctor, that We would fain do,
and have offered her as good a match as
ever she could expect
rs there no one else that you think
she would marry?"
'Ah, doctor that's what troubles us; for
there is a young gentleman whom she
loves, but her father and I can never con-
sent to have her marry him.
why, look you madam replied the
doctor gravely, being among his books in
his library, then the case is this: Your
daughter would marry one man and you
would have her marry another. In all my
books find no remedy for such disease
as this. Change your physician and con-
suit the young man she loves. If he is
an honest fellow his advice will be better
than mine"

Sha mrOck Time.
From the Gael.


'Tis shamrock time, and the wild, wise
swallow
Pursues the summer on eager wing.
Now April woos them, and all things fol-
low,
Take flight and follow the feet of spring.
But we, in stranger lands sojourning,
Like fiedgings far from their forest nest,
Are filled with mourning and wild heart
yearning
To the soft green isle of the golden west.
Oh my heart doth follow
The sweet spring swallow,
AS it wings it's way DER the ocean foam,
Where the shamrock's sprlnging,
The thrush is singing
His song of spring in my Irish home
Earth's deep heart answers to-day with
daughter,
But we, we nor laugh nor smile;
For we are only fain to follow after
The wild wind winging unto our isle.
To-day down many leafy alley
The whitehorn blossom is odorous;
Ger many a violet-purple valley
The lark is singing, but not for us.
Oh! fair, We say, was the land our mother;
Her smile was sweet, but it was not
ours;
We sowed the vineyard end vale; another
Sat as lord in her children's towers
it;
They took the harvest, twas ours the
toll;
Her name was fair, but her foes DETAINED
it;
We ploughed, but stranger held the
soil.
Small share have we in the strangers
city.
The scott of scorn and the stony street.
There's never a kindly glance of pity.
Our tears embitter the bread we eat.
We sing no song, but in dreams We fol-
low,
Take flight and follow. or bond or free,
The seaward sweep of the wild wise swal-
low.
The west wind winging 20 lands DER
sea.
Oh. my heart doth follow
The sweet spring swallow,
As it wings its way DER the ocean foam.
Where the shamrocks sprnging,

Obeyed the Court.

Judge Fitzgerald of Los Angeles, consid-
cred one of the foremost jurists on the
coast, is, at the same time, one of the
most particular of men in all things con-
corning the decorum of the court room,
says the Arizona Graphic. A score or
more of years agone he was appointed by
the President to the bench of the district
that includes Pima and Cochise counties.
He found, on coming to Tucson, that for
mality was almost unknown in the court
room. If the days were warm the attor-
neys and attendants dispensed with coats.
This, to him, appeared particularly dis
respectful He announced that smoking
in the dourt room would not be tolerated
and that coats must be worn under pain
of the courts displeasure. The grand jury
was called. Among the jurors summoned
was a brawny miner who appeared in his
usual costume, a dark blue shirt and over
alls.
What do you mean?" Numbered the
magistrate. "by appearing in this court
room in your shirt sleeves! Where is your
coat?" "At home, Judge" mildly return
ed the juror Then go and get il. No,
not word sir!'' glaring down upon the
man as he attempted to speak. GO home
and get your coat. sir, or I'll commit you
for contempt The miner went silently
out. He didnt return that day nor the
next, and the judge, after issuing a bench
warrant for him, sWore in another juror.
About two weeks thereafter the original
miner, dressed as the court demanded,
again stepped within Judge Fitzgerald s
range of vision. To the irate magistrate
he rendered the explanation that his home
and coat were both in Harshaw noun
tains, near the Mexican border, over 100
miles away. and that he had but obeyed
the order of his honor in going home af-
| ter his coat.

INDIANA GOLD DEMOCRATS.

The gold Democrats of Indiana favor
keeping up their organization. VIII the
gold Democrats OF the other states follow
their lead. and will the National Demo-
cratic forces put out presidential ticket?
These are questions which will be an
swered doubtless in the very near future.
1t is probable that the Indiana god DEM
ocrats have an understanding with the
gold Democrats in other paris OF the coun-
try. It is hardly probable that they would
have taken steps towards keeping up their
organiza lion if they had not had assur-
ances of support from gold Democrats in
all parts Of the country.
1t is not matter of great conse-
quence. however, what course the gold
Democrats decide TO pursue 1t is about
certain that if they We're to nominate a
national ticket they could not poll as large
vote as they did in 1895. In that year
their ticket received about 900 votes.
The support their ticket received, how
ever did not show their full strength. A
great many voted the Republican ticket.
The Indications are that the great ma
jority of those who broke away from their
party in 1885 because they did not fully
approve the Chicago platform, are now
back in the party ranks. The gold stand
ard law which has just been enacted re-
moves. in their opinion, all danger of free
silver coinage. The fear of silver mono
metallism led them 90 form a new political
organization. That fear having been re-
moved there is no good reason why they
should not resume their old relations with
the Democratic party.
There are a few of them of course who
do not intend TO go back to the Demo-
cratic party. Ultimately they will land
in the Republican party. They are the
ones probably who are now trying to
breath life into the moribund organ
ization of the gold Democrats. Their pro-
ceedings will attract some attention, but
win not cause any uneasiness in the ranks
of the Democratic party. The indications
now are that the Democratic party will
begin the national campaign this year
as united and harmonious as in any year
in its history.
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1900-03-16

In this era Of new ideas and startling
inventions old jokes still retain their
youthful vigor, says the Philadelphia Post.
Nor are they confined TO minstrel perform
ers and monologue artists on the vaude-
vile stage. No less a wit than Joseph
Hodges Choate, the law partner of Will
liam Maxwell Evarts and the present am
bassadOr from this country to the Court
OF St James, recently found a very old
joke useful and appropriate.
\ reporter called to see him.
Mr.. Choate is a busy man" said the
clerk
so am l." responded the reporter.
Let me take in your card?"
Never mind the card. He knows me-"
Without further parley he opened the
door and confronted Mr.. Choate, who was
talking with a visitor.
Good morning. Mr.. Choate," said the
reporter, cheerily. II am a reporter"
Mr. Choate looked at the intruder curl
ously. Take a chair, sir" he said qui-
city.
Il want to see you about this story"
showing a clipping from the Morning -.
All" returned the lawyer, with his pc
cular gentle chuckle, I'm glad to see
you. Please take two chairs"
1t was an old, old story, but Mr.. Choate
did not hesitate to use 1t.
