A SAD STORY

An Edinburgh paper relates a
sad story of a young couple, who,
tired of alternately carrying their
infant, walked causually into a
shop and purchased a mail-cart.
AS they came out and passed
along the street they were unable
to understand the amusement
which their progress gave to the
passers-by. When they got home
they found the shopman had for
gotten to take the advertisement
off the front of the cart. 1t con-
sisted of a large card bearing the
words "Our own make.

Of Representatives
In a speech which was given very
close attention and was frequently APP
plauded.
AT one time" said Commissioner
Gabaldon, Congress had before It no
less than thirty resolutions expressing
sympathy with the aspirations of the
Irish people, II not actually urging Eng
land to grant independence to Ireland
AT that time, also the FIlipInos were
knocking at your door. Out OF the
womb OF war, many European repub-
lies were born, and America has re-
1olced to uphold the same. And yet
the claim Of the Filiplnos Is still I'm.
needed. Must there be exceptions,
then, in international justice?
My plea, gentlemen OF the Amerl-
can Congress, is that you ignore no
longer the repeated requests of n de-
serving people for an independence
that rightfully belongs to them. The
granting Of independence now affords
the United States golden opportunity
to give to the world unanswerabIe
proof Of Its sincerity, its consistency
and Its altruism. 1t will be the great.
est example of square dealing In the
history Of the ages.
DO not think we are not appre-
clative Of all you have done for us.
We are. America has truly treated
the Filipino people as no other nation
has ever treated an alien race in all
history. The high points of the Amer.
lean policy In the Philippines have
been consistently inspired by altruism.
We know that you were actuated in
your labors by the desire to contrib
ute to our own welfare.
"And we love you perhaps most OF
all for your solemn promise to grant
US that which we hold dearer than life
ltself-our freedom. Independence is
our national ideal. 1t Is our all alb
sOrbing aim. 1t grows stronger every
hour. For the spirit of nationalsm
never dies. Much less can 1t be sub
dued. We believe thar we can never
hope to he sturdy nation If we are
to rely forever on the magnanlmity of
the United States.
"America's task in the Philippine
Islands Is finished What you have as
sumed as your sacred obligation in
that part of the world has been full
filled. A people with medieval sys-
TEN Of institutions has been trans
formed into conscious nation, In
bued with all that is modern in the
activities Of nations. And If you give
us independence our gratitude to you
will increase thousand fold; 1t will
last forever II you keep faith with us.
There Is but one issue in the Phil.
lppine question, and that Is: Is there
today a stable government on the Is.
lands7 In the Jones law you promised
independence upon the establishment
of such stable government. Your
own Governor-General has officially
reported that there is a stable gov
eminent In existence today, and we
also have submitted plenty Of evidence
to substnntiate its existence. There.
fore, we hope and expect America will
now carry out Its pledge"

ACCOMPLISHED THE TASK

A lady who had been i'll and
under medical treatment for some
time without getting any better
became very distrustful OF her
doctors skill, and therefore wish
ed to dispense with his services
and to try another man in his
stead. She had not, however, the
temerity to inform him Of this,
so she communicated her state OF
mind to her maid, a gem from the
Emerald Isle.
"Lave i'm to me, mum, lave
i'm to me-" said Bridget.
By-and-by the doctor knocked
at the door, and Bridget opened
it about an inch.
Every sorry, sor," said she,
"but We can't come III to-day,
docthor!"
Cant come in? Why mott"
"'The misthress is too i'll fer to
see ye to-day, sor!'
A good story is told, showing
the rapidity with which things
move nowadays. A certain ser
want went to her mistress and
gave notice. "I'm going to be
married, ma Jam" ''To whomR"
asked her mistress. "Do you
remember the funeral you allowed
me to go to three weeks ago,
ma am? Well, I'm going to marry
the husband Of the corpse" 1t
subsequently transpired that the
widower took a fancy to his
fiancee as "she was the only cheer
full party there. "
After a period Of six months
of widowhood, Bridget consented
to again enter the married state.
A few weeks after she was led
to the altar her former mistress
met her on the street dressed III
deepest mourning.
"Why, Bridgct' she exclaim.
ed, for whom are you in blackY"
"For poor Tim-my first hus-
band, mum. When he died | was
that poor | couldn't, but ] said
if liver | could | would; and me
new man, Mike, is as ginerous as
a lord. "

replied "Lor' no ma am, it's only

Little Alice always said her
prayers regularly before going to
bed. One night, however, as she
rested her head on the pillow, she
remarked, in questioning way:
Mamma, my prayers are so
much longer than the one nurse
says in the morning. Can't l say
hers when I'm tired2"
"Does the nurse pray in the
morning?" asked the mother, with
a puzzled look.
eyes, said Alice, sweetly.
"she says, Lord have I got to
get up?'"
A small boy entered chemist s
shop the other day, and passed
over the counter a paper, which
contained the following, evident
ly in the handwriting of the I'M
washed arab who had brought it
in:-
"2 penywerth of borricks."
1t was at once surmised what he
required, but to make sure he was
asked what it was for, to which
inquiry he gave the following re-
play

Class of '2l Graduated from Douglas High School
 Exercises Held.

Objects and results of high school education were very clearly explained by Territorial Comnis. sioner of Education L. D. Henderson in his address at the commencement exercises of the Douglas High Sctool graduating class, held in the Cen gregational church last evening.
 The memorization of dates, rules and other similar data are but minor objectives compared with cultiva' .r of correct ideas and principles and the general broadening of the iaind he said. While 75 per cent grade is sufficient to enable studeit to pass from one grade to anothe., he should ever strive for the utmost efficiency as the only sure way to be thoroughly successful, he added
