When a Mans SICK.

1t Is when we are sick that we MAXI
the hardest call on our philosophy Of
lie. 1t Is the most >..hhsicult of menta
feats to be resigned to physical suffer
Ing and incapacity. There have beef
cheerful sick men in history, like
Alexander Pope, it is true, but the,
were and are few and far between
julius Caesar, for instance, proved to
be a very querulous man when h
was sick.

ed States" says Mrs. de Veyra. Il do
not mean to infer we are perfect, for
we are not. My people have most of
the defects, suppose, that other hui
mans have, but at the same time we
are far from the people that many
Americans have been made to believe:
Not only are we Christian people,
but our race has history that we are
not ashamed of. Throughout the Phil
ippine Islands the people are now
working earnestly to improve them
selves and their conditions so they will
be prepared to take over their own af
fairs. We all love America for giving
us chance to help ourselves and for
having promised us our independence,
which is one of the dearest desires of
the entire citizenship of the islands,"
To American women whose ideas of
Filipinos have been founded on Sun
day supplement descriptions of wild
tribes, Mrs. de Veyra's gentle manner
and evident culture have been a reve-
lation. She is sought by women's clubs
because of her charming manner as an
impromptu speaker on the subject
nearest her heart-the women of her
country.
At recent Washington gathering
she gave in perfect English a concise
account of the work of a woman's club
in Manila which supplies milk to the
babies of the poor and trains mothers
to care for their young children. She
told of another woman's club which
has branches all over the Philippine
Islands and which maintains day
nurseries for the children of the work
Ing women, provides Christmas cheer
for the lepers, the insane and the con-
victs, and gathers data to influence leg
islation for the benefit of Filipino wo-
men and children.
The four little De Veyras, shown in
the picture, having attended the pub
lie schools In Manila, slipped right into
the same grades in the schools of
Washington. Even little Mary, the
baby of the family, speaks three Ian
guages-her native tongue, Spanish
and English.
