HIS CONFESSION OF FAITH.

"I suppose" said the Governor, seeing was
determined TO have phrase, well have to say
that am practical altruist" and we let it
go at that.
On the wall in the Governors Office, at
Sacramento, just where his eyes rest upon 1t
whenever he raises them from his desk, is
card bearing in large type what take to be
his confession OF faith; it is more eloquent OF
the man than anything can say of him.
81 am not bound to win, but I am bound
70 be true: am not bound to succeed, but 1
am bound to live up to what light 1 have.
81 must stand with anybody that stands
right; stand with him while he is right and
part with him when he goes wrong
Even when we talked of war and woman's
suffrage it was impossible to get him away
from the safe ground of experience
81 am opposed to war, of course" he said,
but have been compelled many times in my
life to recognize that well directed punch is
the only effective remedy
Of woman suffrage he spoke almost with
enthusiasm you can say from me that the
experience of California is conclusive. With
out the votes of the women much that we
have accomplished would be impossible. II is
what we were speaking of before-practical
altruism Women have always been altruists,
and they have always tried to work up what
they believed into healthier and more COM

Associations.

All experience evinces that human sentiments are strongly affected by as socfations. The recurrence of anniFer- saries or of longer periods of time nat ura11y freshens the recollection and deepens the impression Of events with which they are historically connected Renowned places also have a power to awaken feeling which all acknowledge No American can pass by the fields of Bunker Hill, Monmouth and, Camden as if they were ordinary spots on the earth's surface. Whoever visits them feels the sentiment of love Of country kindling anew, as if the spirit that be Ionged to the transactions which have rendered these places distinguished still lowered round with power to move and excite all who in future time may ap- proach them.-Daniel Webster

fHavana,s Pathetic Little Door.

This little door is one of the en- frances to La Casa Bene6cencia, the large and well regulated orphan asy lum of Havana. The passerby might easily take it for coal hole if coal were generally used in Cuba, for when the door is closed there is nothing to indicate it's use. On opening it, how ever, one finds a revolving circular box divided into three compartments. It does not need a very vivid fmagi- nation to picture the drama that has been enacted here on many occasions. A woman, her head covered with black shawl, her arms holding a bun d1e to. her breast, hurries along the narrow street. She reaches the little door. Glancing furtively about to see that no one is looking she opens the door and, shaken by stihed sobs, kisses for the last time the baby she is about to renounce She places the child in the circular box, gives it turn and hurries on. Inside one of the Sisters of Charity hears the tinlxIe, of a bell. It marks the arrival of newcomer in La Casa Benef1cencia.-B Herald

 NEW FREEDOM FOR

The Federal quarantine against fhe heof and mouth disease in Connecti- cut will be lifted tomorrow from the counties Of Fairfield, I.itchheId, Mid dlesexy New London, Holland and Windhan and all territory outside of five miles of any affected premises in the counties of Hartford and New Haven will be made an exposed area, according to Information received from the bureau of animal industry yesterday.

state and the charter of the. city of Bridgeport give the board Of health unlimited powers in making rules or orders which they may deem neces- ,dren in and out of school.
 Section 2552 of the general statutes tregarding violations of the orders of the health authority reads as follows: Every person who shall violate any provision of this chapter, or any legal order of health officer or board of health for which no other penalty is provided, shall be fined not more than five hundred dollars ,or be imprisoned not more than six months, or both.''
 Dr. Sherman has been examining school children for several years. Her appointment to this work was brought about by the board of health and she conducts it under their direction Most of the school teachers are in sympa- thy with the dental clinics which are conducted, but they are not in synpa- thy with the work which pr. sherman is doing.
 .sTo use a. slang expression, said one teacher. yesterday, ttDe Sherman has bug on adenoids and tonsils. I venture to say there are few persons in this region but who have throat trouble in some form or other and yet thies trouble is not serious but merely a condition caused Tby climate.
 T wish that some physician would look down pr. Shernnan's throat once. Dr. Sherman takes a child, stands it
 up in the light, pushed a. tongue de- pressor into it's mouth and then writes out card recommending an operation or othe rtreatment, as the case may be-.
 Although there has been no apparent friction many of the teachers are of the, opinion that the board of health has placed many unnecessary restric- tfons on the schools and that these re- strictions interfere with the school work The same condition has existed since the time when compulsory vac cination was the rule. One teacher voiced her opinion in this fashion yes terday:
 Look at the Catholic parochial schools in this city. Their teachers are not hampered by the fads and frdlls Of persons who have become fan atica1 over hygiene and yet you will 4nd that the standard of health is just as high. among the pupils of the 1 Catholic parochiaI schools as it is among the pupils of the public schools"
