WOMEN AS DocroRs. = Machenz


WOMEN AS Doctors. = Mackenzie
writes in the Philadelphia Saturday
Night.
It was the fashion in England to ridi-
cule the American idea Of women being
allowed to practice medicine, but it trans
pired that Elizabed Blackwell was an
English lady; we don't like to say how
old a lady she really is, but she was born
at Bristol in England. on February Sd,
1921. Commercial losses compelled her
father to bring his family to this country
where he died when his daughter Eliza
beth was only seventeen years old. Is
would be long story to relate how she
struggled to help her mother and orphan
ed brothers and sisters, until, at last, at
the age of twenty-six. she went through
a private course of dissection and mid
wifery under Drs. Allen and Warrington,
Philadelphia, (honored be their names y
while applying for admission to yarions
medical olleges-twelve ofthese refused
her, bat she was admitted IN lS47, TO the
Medical College of the University of
Geneva. New York, where she went
t rough the whole course of medical stu
dy, ana graduated in 1917. being the
first woman who ever received the degree
OF Doctor OF Medicine. After pursuing
her studies in the hospitals of Philadel-
phia, London and Paris, she established
herself In New York in 1851, as physi-
clan to woman and children, published a
book on the physical education of chilli
ren, and opened, in 1857, hospital for
wome. over which she presides, assist
ed by her younger sister,, Dr. Emily
Blackwell, who graduated NJ d. III 1854
aud also went through series of clinical
studies III Europe Both sisters have
very large and lucrative practice. There
is a regular female NJ. ID in Philadel-
phia, happily married and highly esteem
ed by all who know her, whose annual In
come from her profession cannot be less
than $50, 000 There is no. good reason,
albeit lhere is much prejudice, why pro-
perry instructed female NJ. D.s should
bot look after the health of other woman
and that Of their own children.

Thirdly, the question of national edu-

ing obtained the elective franchise, the
laboring man will NOW ask the candidate:
before voting: 'sWill you agree to estab-
fish in this country some general system
of education by whichthe children of our
country may have fair chance of being
instructed?' Mr. Bright then referred
to the fact that with no war, and no pros
pect of war, Parliament had appropriat
ed s26, 600, OOO-about $l30,000, 900
for military purposes, and only few
hundred thousand pounds for education.

New Rules for Base Ball.

The following, which we clip from the
Harrisburg { Pa. Patriot and OniOa, will
be of interest to our base ball players in
the present crisis
The Tyrolean Base Ball Club, of this
city, having become demoralized by the
recent contest. has adopted the following
rules, which they recommend to the fra
ternity everywhere:
|. No one weighing over three hundred
pounds will be allowed to play. gse
=. Express wagons will be on hand to
carry the players from base to base
). No player will be allowed more than
three men to help HIM to his home base
4. Any player occupying more than
htteen minutes III going from one base to
another will be counted out.

Cooperative Industry.

The system of cooperative labor is
doubtless the true solution Of the en-
reimbursement of labor from the oppres-
sion of capital 1t requires Intelligence,
honesty, and industry On the part of
those who engage in it. With these, it
is sure to succeed. A correspondent of
the Hartford, Connecticut, Courant, thus
describes a cooperative enterprise In
Mortified. the western part Of the town
of Litchfeld, Conn.
''It seems that some twenty years ago,
number of workmen in the knife factos
tories throughout the state struck for
higher wages feeling sure that their en-
ployers reviewed the hons share of the
profits. The demand was not acceeded
to. Instead of ioafng around idle, and
conspiring to prevent others from work
ing. as it is fashionable now a-days to do,
these men mostly English and Scotch
assembled and talked over the situation,
and concluded to go into business for
themselves One of Their number re-
connoitered found an old unused mill on
little brook in Mortified, and made a
mer who owned It was to take his pay IN
pocket knives. They counted up their
capital, any found it to consist of an
even So apiece, the fund of those who
had only two or three dollars being pleced
out by those who were the fortunate pos
SCISSORS of seven or eight. They appoint
ed out of their number a President of
the company, invested this capital in the

on time and went earnestly at work.
They were generally sober and industri-
ous-those who were otherwise dropping
out of their own weight, and giving place
to better men. The business succeeded.
The capital was largely increased, Divi-
dends were declared The profits instead
ALL The old shop was enlarged. The
workmen capitalists gathered their fami
lies about them, and each built himself a
snug white cottage along the road leading
up the adjacent hillside. Some Of the
past officers have proved unworthy or in
and the company has met its
share Of mishaps, but the general result
has been prosperity The stock largely
increased. cannot be had for anything like
par. The workmen drive to think for
themselves, are mostly hepupncails, anu
they form as pleasant picture of trift,
skill, sobriety and comfort, as one could
encounter in weeks travel. Several of
the original proprietors are still found at
the polishing wheel, and as each man has
a personal interest In the excellence of
the work, there are in the market no bet
ter or handsomer knives than those pro-
duced by the Mortified Knife Company
Why should not other workmen Of every
craft profit by the experiment p

A Delicate Position.

One OF those annoying. yet ludicrous
accidents, which Will happen In the best
OF families. occurred on Sunday, not over
thousand miles from Louisville. A
dry goods clerk mad an engagement to
take his ladylove out buggy riding. Ear
~ 10 the morning he appeared before her
father door with one OF those spider
like vehicles, which are probably con-
structed with view Of ascestaining how
light a buggy can be made, and at the
same time seryiceable.
The lady IS sweet sixteen, beautiful and
just little bit of what is termed fast. y
She is full Of life, fun and frolic, and is
decidedly fat, Weighing about one humid
red and forty-five pounds As the young
gentleman drove up, his lady love was
standing on the top step at the front
door, with her venerable father, who had
his gold specs elevated on his forehead,
IN order to get a distant view of his fu-
ture son-ln-law.
Adonls jumped out of the buggy, pre-
paratory to assisting the young lady in,
but she suddenly took one of those strange
freaks to which the dear sex are all sub
ject. The buggy was standing about four
feet from the steps, and considerably below
the steps uponwhich stood the young lady.
She probably wanted to convince her low
er that she was not clumsy if she wasfat.
and thought this would be a good time
to show him her agility. Be that as it
may, she gave aJump, and landing in the
center of the buggy. IF she had stopped
there all would have been well, but. alas !!
the thin boards OF the bottom of the bug
gy, unable to stand the pressure, gave
way, and the young lady continued her
descent
There was piercing scream plung-
ing horse with a young man holding to
him 4; a bundle of muslin in the buggy,
and two little. gaiter boots pointing to
within SIX inches of the ground under it.
.Paterfamilias came to the rescue and de-
tached the horse from the buggy. He
then got up on one side, young man on
the other, and they attempted to raise
the young lady up. "Oh, stop, stop !!
you are killing me, she cried. ' sup
The boards had broken in the center,
and the long, sharp splinters extended
downwards, and when they attempted to
raise the young lady out of her predica-
ment these sharp splinters would catch in
her, pshaw! Did you ever see a wire
mouse trap? Ii not 60 and get one, stick
your finger through the entrance tunneS
and try to pull it out You VIII then un-
sderstand the sad fix that our young lady
was II on Sunday morning.
The old man comprehended the situa-
ton in moment. He told the young
man to get down sad break the spiinters
off. Young lady screamed 20, don t."
and young mar wouldn't t. At this stage
of the proceedings practical neighbor
came up with Ratchet, and the Young
lady was soon extricated from her unplea-
SAINT situation aud disappeared behind
the front door.

Listening to the thrush's tone,

Decked with buds and blossoms gay;
But upon this autumn afr
Floats voice, which seems to say,
