A Queer Diagnosis.

A celebrated Dublin physician was Sir Dominic CoErigan,, who was as much famed for his brusqueness to- ward patients as for his skill. In the course of some "reminiscences William Charles ScuI1y told story of the doc tor which is quite well worth quoting s.I was taken to see him." says the writer, several times, but he always treated me with the utmost kindness. However, a highly respectable maiden aunt of mine had a different experi- ence. She went to consult him. After sounding her-none too gently-and asking a few questions he gave a grunt and relapsed into silence. Then after a short pause of meditation he said, Well, ma'am, it's one of two things-either you drink or else you sit with your back to the fire.

IT am accompanying him so that if he is arrested to serve the six months I may take up his dates and finish his course of lectures. But we are doing
 more than this. We are looking over the ground in the United States for a movement among the boys and girls of the country. We hope to organize "a million boys and girls into boy and girl scout movement.

We want to put up against that movement spirit of patriotism in which these boys and girls will be scouts to some purpose. In which they will dissem- mate Socialist literature throughout the country and engender in the hearts and minds of these boys and girls really patriotic spirit. By patriotism of course don't mean merely shout the liberation Of millions of wage slaves in this county. mean a movement, to lift the total sum of in teIligence and culture in this country. A movement to enable the working class to really express life in all it's phases. And we will have our badges and our buttons We will gather these boys and girls in ghoups in every city in the United States. We will organize them and let them elect their officers and it may be we will drill them. We are not afraid of the mill tary spirit. We are only afraid of the use to which the military spirit has always been put and to which it Is very likely to be put under the Seton-Thonpson movement.
