Seeing a spe- Icialist takes months and months and sometimes a year or two if you need surgery. The health situation in Kuwait is completely unsatisfactory. We are a rich country that helps other countries build hospitals, and yet we are unable to confront our own health situa- tion and fix it for the benefit of all people who live in Kuwait - expats or citizens. I’m not making this up - it could take you years to get an appointment for a surgery. Until then, you could be dead and this will only speed up the queue for the next patient in line. Every residential area has a clinic, but when your health condition requires a spe- cialist, then they will send you to the hospital, and appointments can take weeks or more. If the specialist decides that you need an operation, then the long wait can kill you.

WITH AN ILLUSTRATION, AND REMARKS BY D. G---- . THOMAS HAILES LACY, 89, STRAND, LONDON. REMARKS. To resist oppression is a duty that we owe to ourselves and to mankind. He who tamely submits to insult and injury, though he claim the merit of passive fortitude, forges chains for himself and his fellow men. We mean not that resistance which accompanies the word with the blow. It is the ruffian's characteristic to oppose brute force, when the evil demands discretion and policy. To choose the right means, and the proper time for employing them, belongs to the reflecting mind. No man is a Coward who smothers his resentment till its exercise becomes most effectual. The best part of moral courage is timely forbearance:— " I did not slab him,— For that were poor revenge !" While thus we advocate resistance against tyranny, we would not intrust with the illiterate the means, or the degree. To resist lawful authority is the peculiar privilege of the vulgar, who forget that their station, however humble, in society, is upheld by its due main- tainance; for gradations in fortune are as natural to man, as in stature or intellect:— " Order is heaven's first law ; and, sins confess'd, Some are, and must be, greater than the rest,— More rich, more wise ; but who infers from hence That such are happier, shocks all common sense." Your jack tar is not the most efficient legislator.

    CAMPAIGN PICTURES OF THE WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA (1899-1900) Letters from the Front A. G. HALES Australia's Appeal to England. We grow weary waiting, England, For the summons that never comes-- For the blast of the British bugles And the throb of the British drums. Our hearts grow sore and sullen As year by year rolls by, And your cold, contemptuous actions Give your fervent words the lie. Are we only an English market, Held dear for the sake of trade? Or are we a part of the Empire, Close welded as hilt and blade? If we are to cleave together As mother and son through life, Give us our share of the burden, Let us stand with you in the strife. If we are to share your glory, Let the sons whom the South has bred Lie side by side on your battlefields With England's heroes dead. A nation is never a nation Worthy of pride or place Till the mothers have sent their firstborn To look death on the field in the face. Are we only an English market, Held dear for the sake of trade? Or are we a part of the Empire Close welded as hilt and blade? If so, let us share your dangers, Let the glory we boast be real, Let the boys of the South fight with you, Let our children taste cold steel. Do you think we are chicken-hearted? Do you count us devoid of pride? Just try us in deadly earnest, And see how our boys can ride.

  • Martha Willis, the Servant Maid
    MARTHA WILLIS THE SERVANT MAID AN ORIGINAL DOMESTIC DRAMA IN TWO ACTS. DOUGLAS JERROLD. AUTHOR OF Black Eye'd Susan—The Rent Day—The Prisoner of War—Doves in a Cage—The Schoolfellows—Time Works Wonders, &c. &c. &c THOMAS HAILES LACY, 89, STRAND, (Opposite Southampton Street, Covent Garden Market). LONDON. ADDRESS TO MARTHA WILLIS. IT is the object of the present drama to display, in the most forcible and striking point of view, the temptations which in this metropolis assail the young and inexperienced on their first outset in life—temptations which, if yielded to, inevitably conduct their victim to wretchedness and shame. It being the peculiar province of the Stage to " hold the mirror up to nature "—to deter by example, and to warn by precept—it is trusted that the present drama, which abounds in strong and highly-wrought pictures of real life—which contains characters whose originals are to be met with in almost every street in London, will be found not only worthy of the attention of those to whose situations in the world it more immediately applies but also interesting to those patrons of the theatre who are desirous of finding in a drama skilful combination of powerful, yet naturally wrought incidents, and vivid portraitures of men and manners as they really are. One of the greatest geniuses of modern times has said, " Truth is strange —stranger than fiction." This great metropolis teems with persons and events, which, considered with reference to their dramatic capabilities, beggar invention—every knave has his mystery, every dupe his sorrow, every street its romance of real life.
