Phxsfcians, Deaths.

AS an example of how malicious and
seemingly innocent is German propa.
ganda In the United States may be
cited the rumors and the actual facts
about mortality among the allied
physicians at the western front.
Recently the actual statistics were
produced, which showed that the bat
tie risks Of a physician are scarcely
more than those Of civil life. Between
the beginning of the war and June 20
1917, only 1876 French and English doc
tors have been killed, 707 wounded and
60 cut down by disease.

Valentines are important" teased
Ethel, for she liked the quiet little
gray man who had been bookkeeper
for twenty-five years in a downtown
warehouse. Mr.. Roots bachelor quar-
tiers at the top of the house had been
spoken of as model Of comfort by
the men of the Munson boarding house
but the women would have it that the
little man must be lonesome, and
among themselves they had secretly de-
cided that 1t would be a fitting TO-
nance If Mr.. Root married Miss Ida
Wingfeld, the schoolteacher who sat
at the end Of the table.
Miss Wingfield, once pretty, now
pale and tired, with rather distin-
guished air lent by her abundant gray
hair. always played Mr.. Roots accom-

Ethel Raymond eagerly.

opportunity is opened up in which
we can show our nobler and catholic
outlook.
Let us show that we are nobler
than they are-let us cut from under
them the hypocrital platform OF
Empire, and go for our Irish chivalry
of right, right for Belgium and
France. defending our old friends
and we will, before the court of the
world, win our own feedom also.
This l most honestly believe-and
now say because l do not think any

SIR FRANCES VANE URGES IRISH
MEN TO FIGHT FOR FRANCE
AND BELGIUM,
A Letter to the Irish Papers.

A Letter to the Irish Papers.
Sir-I think you will realize, for
reasons of supreme Importance, have
not moved lately in the Irish question.
Yet in every case 1 have given it to a
Government which seems to be inca
pable of realizing the mental attitude
of the Irish race. have by letters
and personal influence of other kinds
tried to make the truth prevail. l
have tried to make OF clear to them
that the difficulty in Ireland is not to
make them fight, but, alas, to prevent
them from doing so. That the Irish
will fight for an ideal, and not for an
imperial policy-a trade return. That
their old ally, France, invaded-that
Belgium, small nation, suborned by
military force--are now, as in 1914,
inspirations to all Irish patriots.
have asked the Governments to al
low me to go among my friends-not
as British officer-but as one who
is known as man who did not per-
NIT Irishmen to be killed without a
protest-as one who held up the flag
of Home Rule in English elections,
and as having the best of guarantees
among all good Irishmen, grand
father who fought in '9S-to bring out
all that is virlie in Ireland to fight for
Belgium. France and freedom. In
this, however, / have not allowed
them to camoufage me.
