AN APPRECIATION.

Last Friday will be recalled as an
ideal spring day. Not only was it en-
ioyable intrinsically, but 1t inspired
George Fitch to write some lines
which will give pleasure to all who
read them. They appeared originally
in his column in the Peoria Herald
Transcript under the heading Ar
Appreciation of Yesterday and are as
follows:
To work on such day in spring;
To spend this sparkling, throbbins
thing
Behind a desk or door or hall
In bringing dollars into thrall
Would be like using rubies. red,
To patch chimney overhead;
Like wasting wine to clean street;
Like using lace for cleaning feet;
Or planting corn In bisky hooks
Or feeding fires with old books.
The day was just a jewel lent
By nature for our wonderment
To wear or hide or throw away;
What did you do with yesterday?

Too Many Doctors.

Burlington Hawk-Eye: The cry is
going up in various sections of the
country that there are too many physi-
clans in this country. 1t is something
like Germany, where the universities
continued to turn out physicians and
lawyers at such rate that the coun-
try had an educated proletariate" on
its hands, which proved difficult
proposition. Here, unit recently, there
seems to have been room in abund-
ance for every new doctor. The vast
immigration, the amazing increase in
the population, made an enormous
number Of new doctors necessary. But
the diploma factories have been grind
ing over time and now we actually
have more doctors than the country
requires, or that can make respect
able living here.
For there are many here who de-

may well be taken for granted
and that use OF the word in

q good one, and the young men who

they will please set an example for

HE WATCHES OVER ISRAEL.
He watches over Israel and sweeps
The fullness OF His mercy into one
Great ocean Of eternal deeps;
No helm need I-no guide,
When at my side
Is set the Maker of hundred suns.
He watches over Israel, nor sleeps;
Lest should stumble in the closing
dark
Like some poor leper as he creeps.
BY rugged rut or notch,
Without His watch,
NY faltering feet would never reach
the mark.
He watches over Israel and keeps

He slumbers not, nor sleeps.
In all my little flight,
BY noon or night,
know that He will lead me to repose.

in which she declares that mo other

women in their exquisitely soigne ape

near Bedford while narrowing in the
field, which prompts the Waterloo Re

This is the third similar acciden,

raging farmers should quit plowing
and save a repetition OF these harrow

Why not quit narrowing also If they
would avoid narrowing experiences
