 Hoots would greet the American public man who suggested that the country should celebrate the tooth anniversary of Perry's victory on Lake Erie with bated breath and whispered humbleness' out of respect for the feelings of Canadians.
 Canadian public men need not be toadies in their funkey fears that Ontario will wound the susceptibilities of the United States In her observance of the one hun dredth anniversary of Queenston.
 Canadians are big enough to cherish no susceptibilities that can be wounded by United States commemoration of every battle in which brave men died that their nation might live.
 Americans are also big enough to de- splse the craven spirit of Canadians who seem to be afraid to commemorate Brooks victory lest they offend the Amer jeans.
 Queenston Heights is not the place. and the tooth anniversary of the battle is not the time for a military demonstration. The Queenston Heights centennial should be honored as sacred festival of British Canadian patriotism. The value of the centennial will be measured by the ideals 1t exalts, the ideas it promulgates, not by it's array of swords or bayonets or can non. These exalt no worthy ideals and suggest no high ideas. It would be dis honoring to the memory of Brock, Brant and other patriots who died for Canada to let the Queenston Heights centennial pass unmarked by public demonstration of national gratitude. It would be still more dishonoring to leave the prepara- tions for such celebration in the hands of public men who seem to cringe and crawl and whine in an agony of fear that something may be said or done to offend the United States.

 I hated to be in the ward. dreaded going out of It, even to the medicine room. I did not want to look at Burke and yet I was afraid not to, for fear the gray shadow might creep upon him unawares. My feet carried me hither and thither about my work. my hands per- formed their appointed tasks, my brain was clear again and in control. l was like an automatic piece of machinery which will run its course although the hand that wound it and set 1t going may never again have the power to do so.
 The hours wore on. Burke ate his sup per with relish. But I was not treasured by this and the surgeon did not encour age me to build on hopes that might prove to be false. Some poisons are slow in their action. It was a wrench for me to go off duty leaving him with a night nurse who was in ignorance of any spe- cial need for watching him carefully. But l went without word. The surgeon made me. He promised to look in on the ward often until midnight, when, if no symptoms had developed, the danger would be past.
 I got up in the early morning, a mild spring one. and with my textbooks went out on the lawn. When the breakfast bell rang I went into the dining room, not because I was hungry, but because if stayed away somebody would ask why, and I did not wish to be questioned. I gulped down a few mouthfuls and then headed for the ward, but as I was usually first on duty my haste excited no cnfnmanf

 The home was connected with the hos pital by passageway on the ground floor. I hurried through it and rang for the elevator to tako me up stairs. As l waited for it, two orderlies carrying a covered stretcher came down the stairs and passed me on their way to the morgue. I had to bite my lips to keep back an exclamation Only too well did l know who 1t was that was deadl
 Arrived at the door of the mems med ical, I tried to cross the threshold, but it was as if invisible hands pressed me back. At last I forced myself to enter. Looking neither to the right nor the left I went in to get the report from the night nurse She was busy, applying a poul- tice, so I waited for her at the head nurses table. Against my will my eyes sought Burlse's bed-it was, as l had feared, vacant.
 I determined to get through my morn- ing's work somehow, medication and all, anyway until the mad rush of getting ready for rounds at 9 o'clock was over, and then, when there was a Hull I would go down to the superintendent's office and make clean breast of the affair Further than that my mind refused to travel What would become of me neither knew nor cared.
 Just then there emerged from the lava lofy tne usudl morning procession or such patients as felt equal to performing their own ablutions. As they filed past me each bade me "good morning. and responded as in a dream until my glance fell on the last one in the line He was only a grizzled, red-eyed old man. but I could have kissed the hem of his coarse gray bathrobe, for to me he was an angel of light, trailing clouds of glory behind him. I detained him, my hand on his arm, until I could find voice to speak to him.
 Why, Burkel You-you are feeling pretty well today? You are up earlyr'
 Yes, Miss, he replied, beamingly That there new medicine you give me yesterday has fixed me up fine. I ain't had such a good night in years hopes I'm ter take 1t regular"
 Regularly? Oh We'll hardly think so, Burke. It might lose its effect, you know. But I'm glad-very glad-that it did you goodr'
 When I asked the first assistant that day for an explanation of the happy out come of my mistake, he attributed it to the fact that BuFkes muscular tissue 1 had lost its absorbtive quality-unless 1t was that nitro-glycerine is less dan gerous drug than is supposed-but after that conversation neither he nor the house seurgeon ever alluded to the sub ject of 1t again.

PeFIa Collier French.

The depths of sorrow We cannot tell
At the loss OF those we love so well,
And while they lie in peaceful sleep
Their memory We will always keep,
Three loved ones of mine have gone
before
And she has gone to meet them
On that bright and beautiful shore
Clothed with a crown and golden
stem.
A stroke of death did end their time;
Short was their life, sharp their pain
This world is but fleeting line,
In heaven they meet again.
J. D. and a. meet at Heavens gate
With her beautiful crown of gold,
Her tired soul to leate
In the bosom of her Makers fold.
Grave where Is thy victory,
Death where is thy sting.

Why Musicians Wear Lonu Hair.

"Why do musicians wear long harp
said the barber. "Pshaw, | thought
everybody knew that. They wear long
hair to protect their ears, of course
their sensitive ears. All depends, with
musicians, on the ears, the same as
lall depends on the eyes with paint
ers. And the ears OF musicians are
delicate, liable to take cold, liable to
aches. infiammations and what not.
So they protect them with long hair,
and you have no more right to laugh
at the name of pianist or violinist
than at the protective shields and
pads of your favorite haIfback"
