"A Girl of the Mountains"

A small sized audience gathered at
the Opera house last evening to wit
ness a play called "a Girl of the
Mountains" The story of the play
deals with the career of a girl who
grew up in the mountains and after
some bitter experiences in the city
went back to the mountains again.
One person who witnessed last nights
performance remarked that the noun
tains would be a proper place for the
whole show, though perhaps this was
putting it a little too strongly.
The company was small and made
quate. Some of the scenery, however,
was very good, that in the third act
being particularly SO.

DR.. Philips address, says:
DIR Philip dwells on the fact that
it seems, in the light of modern OBJ
servation, that tuberculosis is cons
monty contracted in childhood, and e
this conclusion be correct the problem
to be faced is of a totally different
complexion and proportions from that
which was previously conceived.
THE point is how to prevent tuber-
culosis from attacking young children.
'Dr. Philips viewss-are not quite in
accordance with those generally held.
He thinks it is by no means proved
that bacillus containing milk is the
most fruitful cause of injection In
childhood, but is strongly of opinion
that everything appears to point con-
clusively to the relatively airless con-
ditions of home and school life as chief
etiologicel factors.

THAT human life is cheap ply held in this land is abundantly seen, but the most startling evidence is found in the statistics of railroad and mining accidents. Making full al lowance that railroading and min ing are naturally hazardous occu- pations, and allowing also for the cirelessness of many workers, the ftct remains that adequate precau- tions are not taken to safeguard human life. In both occupations the number of people killed and wounded each year far exceeds, b Dth actually and relatively, the casualties of any European coun- tSy. the excess being from two and a half to three times as many The one and only thing to remedy such a condition is to put the sacrednrsr oi human life above the dividends on stock.

Are You Marking Time ?

Over the gateway of an old castle is a sun dial and around the dial is these words:
 1 mark time, d6st thou?
 1 am a shadow. SD art thou.
 In keeping with the second line is Edmund Burke's estimate of man-"W hat shadows we are, and what shadows we pursue" The closing days of the year make us feel that in some measure we are as shadows creeping over the face of time. And yet it ought to be possible for us to answer af1irma- tivel y the combined statement and question, II mark time, dost thou ?" Most certainly we can do this when we live the true life-the life of clean character and of service to others, doing the best we can as we know how. The man who has done that during the year now ending may not be altogether satisfied with himself, but he may rejoice that he has had some share, how ever humble, in helping the world to be better. In truest sense the man who does that is far mere sub- stantial than a shadow.
