PEOPLE AND THINGS.

A number of little : hospitals on
wheels for service in big cities is a
scheme favored by DR.. Frances Dick
inson, of Chicago, who says in her be-
lief hundreds. of lives have been lost
in Chicago because the hospitals are
stationary. What she would like to
see is a series of hospitals on wheels,
each as large as a department store
truck, and in appearance resembling a
house boat. The forecastle should be
fitted up as a dispensary, with the
operating room aft. This hospital on
wheels should be heated. lighted and
propelled by electricity, and would
carry a crew consisting of a surgeon
and two graduate nurses.

Dear Marie: 1 read your department

of the afflicted class who must always

ters to you can not restrain the frolics
of their mustang humor. With such
I have neither sympathy nor patience.
To my mind the two great evils of our
day are excessive levity and excessive
work. It's no time for joking; serious
problems are pressing and clamoring
for solution. For example, there is the
woman question, for which you are doing
so much. The funny man will persist
in making light of woman; he will in
sist on calling her the afterthought. the
postscript of creation. Every one knows
that he has no authority for saying that

smart looking shoes that they have grown
to be immensely popular.?H One of the
chief reasons for this is that the shoes

LIFE GUARDS.

The Life Guards are two regiments
of cavalry forming part Of the Brit
ish household troops. They are gall
liant soldiers, and every loyal British
heart is proud of them. Not only
the Kings household, but yours,
ours, everybody's should have its
life guards. The need of them is
especially great when the greatest
foes of life, disease, find allies in the
very elements as colds, influenza,
catarrh, the grip, and pneumonia do
in the stormy month of March, The
best way that we know of to guard
against these diseases is to strength
en- the system with Hoods Sarsap-
ariIla-the greatest of all life guards.
It removes the conditions in which
these diseases make their most sue
cessful attack, gives vigor and tone
to all the vital organs and functions,
and imparts a genial warmth to the
blood. Remember the weaker the
system the greater the exposure tc
disease. Hoods Sarsaparilla makes
the system strong.

A DYING (
Poor old Paul Kruger!

Only a few years ago he was prac'
tically the dictator-almost the abso.
lutte monarch-priest Of a people.
Now-whipped, and in exile, with
his power gone, his old comrades
dead OF broken, his people the sub.
.jects of an ancient enemy, and his
own heart broken at last-he is rag.
ing UP and down like a toothless old
lion held in captivity far away from
the smells and sights and sounds OF
that lions native land.
Listen to what he said the other
day-Oom Paul, the Boer Puritan,
the hurler of Biblical texts, he who
was wont to rely upon the Word as
much as upon the Sword, even as
did Oliver Cromwell
"There is no JUSTICE" said he, Gin
either God or manw
Consider what must be the extent
of his mental misery and his spirit
AGt oSOIJ "1Ch OOh1 dO4 IAIlISOT
denies the justice of God!
Observe that he has no doubts. no
h~esitations concerning the Justice of
his own cause. 1t is because he is
so absolutely sure that cause was
right, that he doubts Gods justice.
This difficulty, we opine, sooner or
later, confronts nearly every man
who has habitually spoken for God
as well as for himself. Neither are
Jobs common.
But there is no more pathetic fig
ure on earth to-day than this old
burgher with his resolute insistence
that he was right-th that God and
men were wrong, and he was right!
For Napoleon, dying at st. Helena,
we may feel a certain pity, but not
that degree of pity which goes out
towards n who has always fought
and struggled with an uncommon
religious faith and fervor to buoy
him up; for Napolean's faith was
always greatest in Napoleon. "God
is on the side which has the strong
est batta1ions, said Napoleon. "God
is ON the side of the Boers," said
Kruger at the beginning of the Trans
vaal war. Indeed, there seems to be
a certain danger of miscalculation in
making these sweeping statements
as to the exact disposition of divine
sympathies in national embroglios.
There may be Plans, the entire out
lines of which r not to be made
visible to mortal eyes, and which in
vOlve much apparent injustice in
their working out, regardless of hui
man viewpoints and convictions,
prejudices and shibboleths, and
which will proceed from seeming in
justice to seeming injustice for cen
1uries, resulting at last in justice.
But all that men can do is to fight
for what they see. And when they
fight and work as consistently and
as bravely as has Dom Paul Kruger
it is certainly not the part of lesser
men and weaker people to do more
than admire them in their strength,
and pity them when they become
broken. And, in the picture galleries
Of all time there is no more pathetic
sketch than this restless, old South
African lion, yearning and raging
and dying far away from the veldt
his eyes will never look upon again.
