TO GOOD THROUGH EVIL.


II War with all its stern realities
Shall waken man from idle dreams
and speed
His soul to higher planes from whence
he sees
In fuller light his own and neigh
boris need:
II War shall cure us of that spirit
sloth
That shackles effort for the COM

And urge US onward 10 a firmer troth
With loftiness Of aim and brother

Then all its sunerinss will prove but

And all its sacrifice shall worthy be,
And through the ruin black and bitter
pain
Well press undaunted on to victory.

Dlckensians had the pleasure Of seeing

graver. the author of several pictures
for "A Christmas Carol and 1.-THE
Chimes"
It was from Mrs. F.. Lynn Linton. W.
]. LintOn's wife. that Dickens bought
GadshiIl place. but there Is apparently
no record that Linton ever visited
Dickens there. It cannot. in fact. be
determined whether this new portrait
was done from life or not. 1t evident.

Discipline.

'The discipline in base hospitals in
France precludes social relations be-
tween nurses and enlisted men. This
is occasionally carried to extremes. as
evidenced by the following incident. A
certain nurse was found ringing the
doorbell of the officers quarters early
one morning. When asked what she
wanted. she replied that the villa In
which she and the other nurses were
quartered was on FIRE. After the fire
had been eStinguished. she was asked
why she didn't give the alarm at once,
instead of running the long distance to
the Officers quarters. Her reply was !:
we aren't allowed to speak to enlisted
men. From the Journal Of the

Can shyres, b Cured,

What is the remedy for shynessi I
What is the shy man to do in order
that he may be shy no longer7
The remedy is simple. and Is to be
found by consideration of the cause
The shy person Is shy In the presence
OF strangers only. Let him have no
opportunity of meeting strangers. and
let the opportunity be abolished not
by abolition of the meetings, but BY
abolition of the strangeness. In other
words, shy persons are those who In
early life had not practice and no e1-
perience in meeting strangers. and so
having the attention OF strangers d.
rected to them and attracted to them.
II the meeting with strangers becomes
customary 1t loses Its strangeness.
