occasion for some OF the usual tributes TO the

were distributed they were last week, and there
was nothing novel or noteworthy about the per-
formance beyond the interest In the opera indi-
Gated by a crowded house, a special manifestation
Of kindness for Miss Fremstad. which has been
well deserved. and rather singular apathy toward

France now joins the penny post COM
munity, and will presently be carrying letters
all over the republic and to all her colonies for
the equivalent of two cents of money
letter In that she is following the example OF
the United States and the United Kingdom
which have long successfully practised such a
system. Such transportation of letters certainly
seems cheap enough at present. and there may
not soon be any effective call for further
changes in that direction. But lesson which
America may well learn Of other countries is
that of the parcels post, and 1T may be that
some day there will be devised a practical
method of establishing international postage

doctors need rest the same as all other human
beings. and do their best work only when
