SOLITUDE.

Laugh, and the world laughs with y° u ; , . Weep, and you weep alone; For the sad old earth must borrow . its mirth. It has trouble enough of its own. Sing, and the hills will answer; Sigh, it is lost on the air; The echoes bound to a joyful sound, j But shrink from voicing care. Rejoice, and men will seek you; Grieve, and they turn and go; They want full measure of all your pleasure, ... But they do not need your woe. Be glad, ar.d your friends are many; ’ Be sad and you lose them all; There are none to decline your nectaf’d wine, ’ But alone you must drink nips gall. Feast, and your halls are crowded; Fast, and the world goes by, Succeed and give, and it helps you live, But no man can help you die. There is room in the halls of pleasure For a large and lordly train, But one by one we must all file on Through the narrow aisles of pain. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

PERTINENT POINTS IN PALMER’S SURRENDER.

Here are a few plain and fundamentally important facts in connection with the coal controversy, strike and settlement: r ' 1. The coal miners repudiated valid wage agreements, many of which would not expire until April, 1920, and demanded a 60 per cent increase in wages, with other concessions. 2. The operators refused. to grant the demands, but offered to arbitrate. 3. The miners refused to arbitrate and ordered a strike. 4. President Wilson denounced the strike as unjustifiable and unlawful, and called upon the miners to return to work. 5. Attorney General Palmer brought an injunction suit upon the allegation that the strike was unlawful, and secured a mandatory writ ordering cancellation of the strike order. 6. The strike ordeF was cancelled, but the miners did not return to work —which return was -the chief purpose of the suit. 7. While the miners were thus engaged in what the president and the attorney general declared to be an illegal act, the attorney general negotiated with them concerning compliance with the law made terms satisfactory to them by which their return to work was secured. 8. These terms included a concession of a material part of the .strikers’ demands, the appointment of a tribunal satisfactory to them to lletermine what additional concessions should be made, and conveyed an implied forgiveness of the illegal acts already committed. 9. Although the operators had offered to arbitrate all the demands, as 'made at the time of the threatened strike, the attorney general granted part of the demands and then insisted that the operators had agreed to arbitrate the remainder, which they had never offered to do.

„ 10. If the agreement of the attorney general shall stand, the miners gain at least the concessions already made, and may gain much more through the arbitration, forced upon the operators, thus demonstrating that unjustifiable and unlawful acts are profitable—in other words, that dishonesty is the best policy. 11. If the attorney general’s agreement shall stand, the department of justice thereby establishes the policy of negotiating terms with criminals—for the attorney general declared the strike criminal, 'but said he preferred to prosecute the case in the civil courts. 12. Success of the unjustifiable and unlawful acts of the striking miners will be due notice to all class interest that the way to win is to repudiate agreements and imperil the public welfare, thereby forcing the government, through its duly authorized, agencies, to yield at least* k part of the demands and make agreements that may give to the law-breakers all that they ever expected or hoped to secure.

SAME OLD STUFF.

Paris, Dec. 27.—The German is slowly finding his way back to Paris. How he evades the passport regulations and enters Paris is something of a mystery, but he is here and quietly but qnobtrusively preparing to resume business at the old stand. You find him in certain hotels and restaurants frequented by Germans before the war. It is not a novel experience today to hear German spoken in a dining room and it evokes nothing more than a raising of eyebrows. German magazines are making their appearance in the newspaper kiosks. In fact, some of the stands along the boluevards now display as miny publications from Berlin as frOpr New York, despite the fact that 0 thousands of Americans are spending the winter in Paris or passing through the French capital en route to other'countries. They have been playing German music in the Paris concert halls for several weeks with only mild protests. The question of studying German has aroused considerable discussion, but the ayes seem to have it. The need of writing and speaking the language of a country whose frontier borders on your own and with whom you must, whether you like it or not, carry on business, .is overwhelming sentimental arguments. Every school in Paris teaching foreign languages is swamped with students learning German. And among them are hundreds of men who only a little more than a year ago faced the Germans across No Man's Land.

DR. OSLER, NOTED PHYSICIAN, DEAD AT AGE OF 70.

Oxford, Eng., Dec. 29.—Sir William Osier, noted physician, who has been ill for several weeks, died here this evening. O— — Although Sir William Osier was known to be seriously ill at his home in Oxford, where he has been regius professor of medicine since 1904, recent advices Tiad given hope for his recovery. “ Sir William, who passed tils seventieth birthday last July, was stricken with pneumonia in ’November, but later was reported convalescent. A fortnight ago, however, reports reached this country that he had taken a turn for the worse. Cabled ’advices shortly afterward announced his condition somewhat improved, while on Christmas day a message from him was received at the Johns Hopkins hospital in Baltimore in which the famous physician announced he was “making a good fight” after an empyema operation. Dr. Osier was professor of medicine «t Johns Hopkins university from 1880 to 1904. He was born in Canada in 1849. Dr. Osier startled the world in 1905 by declaring .in his farewell address at Johns Hopkins that little is by a man over 40 years of age and that men of 60 should be retired or chloroformed. He was then nearly 60 himself. His statement created such a furore that he wad later constrained to deny that he had made it, but the “Osier theory” was actually held responsible for many suicides of men over 6fl> for years later. Dr. Osier’s mother lived tb the age of 100.
