good or evil, it retains its form. Po-

destiny of individuals but of nations.

Patients are brought into one of the

attended to by one or more of the
second year members of the staff,
assigned to ward or room if needed,
and if in any way seriously injured, are
placed under the observation of the
head physician. If able to talk,
patient is asked his name and the
name of some of his friends. Later
on the ward physician will get ell such
information as he needs to assist him
in making a ad1iagnosis or in determin-
ing on methods of treatment, but at
no time is he asked the size of his bank

On Easter Sunday every church in
Australia donates to the hospital in
its district, at its Offering, both at
morning and evening service. Many
people who never go to church any
other day, do so on Easter Sunday, in
order that they may contribute to their
local hospital. In the afternoons at
all the parks there are open air music
al concerts, where people have also an
opportunity to contribute. All this is
duplicated by the general government.

The Evidence Was Unsatisfactory.


Z VENATOR PROCTOR, of Vermont,
Y who particularly likes to tell sto-
* ries showing the humorous side of
M legal proceedings, relates the fol-
q lowing with reference to an Irish
4 man who was being examined as
to his knowledge ola certain shooting
affair:
"Did you," asked the presiding mag
istrate of the witness, "did you see the
shot fired?"
"Oi did not, sir" responded the Celt,
"but OF heard it foired."
"That evidence is not satisfactory"
replied the magistrate stearnly; "step
down."
The witness left the box. No sooner
had he turned his back on the judge
than he gave vent to somewhat de-
risive laugh. Enraged at this con-
tempt of court, the magistrate called
the Irishman back to the witness box.
"How dare you laugh in that manner
in courts" demanded the judge, angri-
ly.
"Did you see me laugh, yourhonor ?"
asked the Irishman.
mo, but 1 distinctly heard you
laugh" came from the irate judge.
"Such evidence is not satisfactory"
rejoined the Celt, quietly, twinkle
coming into his eye.
"Whereupon," says Senator Proctor,
'every one laughed, including the
judge."-The Searcblight.

served with exquisite politeness, and
get the best there is in the house, while
those who do not tip have to wait and
get the worst there is. If you 60 into
strange restaurant and wish to be
served we'll and quickly, just put your
hand into your pocket, draw out a
dime or quarter, and lay it beside
your plate when you give the order.
The effect will be instantaneous-and
to your satisfaction. It's sheer brib-
cry, but it's justified under existing
circumstances. N
If the tipping habit has once taken
hold of people, there seems to he
nothing that can stop it, Last year
several hotels in New York, and one
of the best Chicago hotels, posted
notices in all their rooms, stating that
none Of their help was permitted to
accept q tip, and that they were well
paid for their services by the manage
ment; at the same time asking the
guests to support them in their
crusade against tipping by not offering
tips to their employees. Not a month
after that notice had appeared, it was
noised about that those particular
hotels had the worst help in town.
This was a palpable untruth, and the
managers of the hotels were con-
vinced that they had good help. and
paid no heed to the slanderous rumor.
Nevertheless, their trade began to fall
off; in three months after they had
been posted, the notices were removed;
and soon after the business resumed
its old routine.

which is doing a good business, but
which ii SO small that taere are only
two walters. Each of these two, in
stead of receiving wages, pay every
week twenty marks five dollars) to the
proprietor. Notwithstanding this fact
those two walters must do a good busi-
ness in tips; for they have been in this
place many years, and one of them has
refused to sell out to another waiter
who offered him three thousand marks
for his job. Many such cases could
be cited; and it is said that similar
conditions exist in several New York
restaurants.
The largest tips in the world are
probably paid by Americans who visit
Paris; for, besides the usual tips, they
have to pay commissionnaire who
takes them around to pleasure and shop
ping expeditions But even now tht

try reaches far into; the millions JUS
