The Province Of Physicians.

=
The physician Of the future will find
his greatest service in prolonging hu-
man life. The asylum and the poor.
house are not to be regarded as shin.
ing lights Of advanced. political econ
omy, but there is something in life
besides mere political economy, and
the prolongation Of existence is re.
garded as one Of the chief functions
both of the: medical profession and Of
public charities. On the other hand,
says the Scientific American, it must
be considered that there is distinct
economical loss in cutting of from
existence man before he has run
the full course of his career. TO train
a man for usefulness requires now
fully a quarter of a century, and it
seems only fair that. he should. have
at least twice that time for; the mani.
festation of his activities. If. there.
fore, he be cut off at IS, 40 or As the
community is robbed: of service to
which 1t is entitled.

consider the matter, why shodld Il b
so severe? Let it be sensibly short
and comfortable-and then as pretty
as you are a mind to make it. The
one refer to was part of a neat gray
outfit; the skirt short enough not to
need holding up at muddy crossing,
heavy enough not to blow in the wind
and make indfscreet display of ankles;
the coat was a trim bolero, which dis
played at the back and down the
front an engaging white wash-silk
waist. The hat was cheerful with
rosies, quite enlivening on the dark,
rainy day.
The other short jacket noticed was
part Of a tailor snit Of blue cloth. It
was trimmed with wide bands of black
braid, which climbed up the back and
gave the short-wa;sted effect so sought
after these days; there was touch on
the sleeves and narrow vest down
the front of heavy cream-colored lace,
picked out in red and blue embroidery.
With the short sleeves long heavy
black gloves were worn. The hat was
gray blue. m ......
But to return to our ':princess"
theme. Crepe de chine is an admira-
bic material to choose for an evening
gown made after this favored, model.
A. charming pale blue was recently
seen trimmed rather sparingly with
white lace. So many people make the
mistake Of piling yards of lace on a
gown and getting something for re-
ward that is f,lssy and over-elaborate
The one speak of, which looked sim
pie and modish, is what is called a
corsage princess; it was stayed above
and to quite a depth below the waist,
by many rows of shirring. A low
Eecked and short-sleeved bolero
formed the bodice, the bolero, rounded
off prettily and coming well above the
waist. A sort of fichu of lace outlined
the little coat, and a bit Of lace was
introduced in the slashing Of the short
sleeve

"Tel! me, dear Uncle,' said little
Dilly, as he glanced up from the Con.

what is politics?"

served Uncle George, genially, from
the depths of his easy chair, where he
had been reading the latest play of
George Bernard Shaw, which he now
surreptitiously concealed with slight
blush, rs synonymous with many
words In the English language, such
as graft, crookedness, and the like, In
addition to some even harsher cpl
thets, for fuller description Of which
I must refer you to Messrs. Plat and
Depew''
But, dear uncle" said little Dilly,
with puzzled air, Gin my dictionary
it is defined as that part of ethics
which consists in the regulation and
government of nation or state for the
preservation of it's safety, peace and
prosperity
do not move me to ribald laughter,
Dilly, as my nervous system is some.
what shattered at this moment I am
forced to admit that your dictionary
intended to deal with the question
properly, but it has fallen far short of
the requirements. To be more explicit,
my dear boy, politics, while original.
ly scheduled to daily along the prim.
rose path you mention, has in fact
fallen a long way behind, and is now
hopelessly off the track. When your
chronological compendium refers to
ethics in that manner it does SO with
many due reservations. Politics has
nothing to do WITH ethics. In fact, the
two are as widely separated as a col.
ored collector of revenues would be
from Texas governor. Politics Is
not condition, billy; it is game.
There are two great political parties,
my dear boy, and the burning ques.
ton Of one is: How much can we
steal?' while that Of the other is,
Grab it before it's all gone You
will at once observe where the ordi'
nary citizen obtains his rights. Vul
carly speaking, it strikes him in the
region of the fifth cervical vertebrae
A brief reference to your beloved die
tionary will reveal to you that ethics
may be described as morality. Even
the most rabid politician has never the
nerve to class himself among the high
ly moral. Roughly speaking, the poll
tician is wise guy, and he usually
knows enough to seek refuge in a
mansion when it rains, though some
times, under the steady downpour, he
makes a mistake and gets in the
wrong house and is unable to get out
until term of years has expired"
els all politics crooked, dear
uncle?" asked Dilly, anxiously.
"No, not all, my boy" replied Uncle
George. There may be- some de
scription Of it that is as pure as the
driven snow. You will not discover
that description in the United States
however. At times the vile. and icen
tious press has limited at anomalou:

petty jealousy. This same press. ha!
