The Fees Of New York Physicians and
Dentists

A WRITER from New York to a contem-
porary says:
A physician in good practice will re.
ceive patients at his Office four hours
daily, and make calls for about the same
length of time, From ten to twenty call
ers aud half 81 fliahy house patients
would be fair average; the fees would
be 81 and s. each. At these figures it
would not be hard to make up an income
of $50, 900 or more. 1t is said of DR.. Will.
lard Parker, | believe that, having been
called out of town TO attend patient, he
returned bill of 5000, and when It was
disputed be showed by his books that his
daily receipts were much over that sum-
Surgeons single charges are much larger
than those of physicians, though the in
comes OF the latter are probably the high
est. For ordinary ettehdanGe their rates
are about the same or say $5 visit
From $25 upward is the charge for op-
eratlons. For setting an arm or leg $3.50
would be asked, larger undertakings being
in proportion. For case requiring a
delicate operation and six weeks con,
stsnt attendance, sofietimes two or three
times a day, $1,000 was lately asked by a
leading surgeon. In another instance.
where a wealthy gentleman Yves badly
jammed by railway Gar, he was attended
by DR.. james II. Wood, who made about
a dozen visits, without any important OPP
Grafton, and sent in bill OF $4,000, which
was paid. This is exceeded by DIR. Car.
nochan, who charged 42 1000 for an opera
tion alone, while another surgeon is said
to have received $4,000 from one patient.
The prices charged by dentists are
quite as high as those of physicians. A
man of ordinary reputation In the pro.
fession will ask from % to $40 for pull.
ing single tooth, Willie MIR. Atkinson,
one of the most fashionable dentists, is
reported to charge $40 for simply ex-
amining PERSONS teeth, and $25 an
hour for operating upon them. Many
people, refuse to pay these fancy prices,
but IL ie coiilihoh thing to have to pay
from $40 to $100 for dentists bills. Most
practitioners of any reputation have en-
gagentehts far ahead. Ten days is short
time to wait for your turn, while friend
OF mine who went TO Europe in the mid
die of last October, on applying TO her
dentist for treatment, was told that he
could not give hef in hours heed dhtii
February, or nearly four months in ad-
vance. Dentists are kept busy all the
year round, and seldom have any leisure.
Their practice is combining and not
healthy, but it is very profitable Their
incomes range from $1,000 to $4,000 a
year.

WIN Not Act with the OnlCe.Seekors.

At largely meeting of del.
egates from the several farmers clubs of
Jackson County, ILL.,, on Saturday, reso-
lutions were passed deprecating the
efforts of certain political schemers to
capture the farmers movement, ,disapprov-
ing of the Independent political-party &C
tion of the "State Farmers Association"
and declaring that they will not send del.
egates to the political State convention
recently called by the Advisory Board"
caucus at Bloomington. 1t is very evil
dent from this, and from other advices
we have from various parts of the State,
that the handful of sorehead politicians
and scheming office-seekers who imagine
that they can readily bamboozle the farm
ers into anything they choose to propose
are destined to meet with disappoint-
ment.-Chicdgo Journal

Closets in the House.

HAVING suffered some for closet room
at one time and another, or for places to
stow away things, have had c0nsidera-
BILE sympathy with that man who said
that when he built house he should be-
gin with big closet and make additions
to that. When speak of closets my hus-
band understands me, but Immediately
begins to talk about modes of ventilating
closets, and | have only gradually grown
to understand his strong sense Of the
necessity for closet ventilation. Having
for several years hung the clothing of the
family in rooms where there was free
circulation of air, am surprised when
go into the well-hnished clothes-rooms
qet us call them close rooms) in some fine
houses TO find how dead and unwhole.

Liver and Blood Diseases.

ny r. v. PIERCE, NJ. d.
A healthy liver secretes each day about two
and half pounds Of bile, which contains
great amount OF waste material taken from
The blood When the liver becomes torpid or
congested II fails to eliminate this vast
amount OF noxious substance, which, there
fore, remains TO poison the blood and be con-
veyed TO every part OF the system. What
must be the condition Of the blood when Il is
receiving and retaining each day two and a
on this poison through other channels and
organs-the kidneys, lungs, skin, etc.-but
these organs become overtaxed In performing
this labor In addition TO their natural func.
tions, and cannot long Withstand the pressure,
but become variously diseased.
The brain, which Is the great electrical CEN
ter OF all vitality, Is unduly stimulated by the
unhealthy blood which passes to 1t from the
heart, and II fails to perform it's Office health
fully. Hence the symptoms OF bile poisoning,
which are dullness, headache, incapacity 10
keep the mind on any subject, impairment OF
gloomy forebodings and irritability OF temper.
The blood itself being diseased, as II forms
the sweat upon the surface Of the skin, it is
SO Irritating and poisonous that IL produces
| discolored brown spots, pimples, blotches
and other eruptions, sores, boils, carbunces
and scrofulous tumors. The stomach, bowels
| and other organs cannot escape becoming af-
fected sooner or later, and we have, as the
result, costlveness, piles, dropsy, dyspepsia,
diarrhea. Other symptoms arc common, as
| bitter or bad taste In mouth, internal heat,
palpitatlon, teasing cough, unsteady appe-
tite, choking sensation In throat, bloating of
stomach, pain in sides or about shoulders or
back, coldness of extremities, ETC., etc Only
few of the above symptoms are likely to be
present In any case at one time. The liver be-
ing the great depurating or blood cleansing
| organ OF the system-set this great "house-
keeper OF our health" at work, and the foul
corruptions which gender in the blood and rot
out, as 1t were, the machinery of life are
gradually expelled from the system. For this
purpose my Golden Medical Discovery with
very small doses daily OF my Pleasant Purga-
tive Pellets arc pre-eminently the articles need
ed. They cure every kind Of humor from the
worst scrofula TO the common pimple, blotcl
or eruption. Great eating ulcers kindly heal
undeT their mighty curative influence Viru.
lent blood poisons that lurk In the system are
by them robbed of their terrors, and by their
perseyering and somewhat protracted use the
most tainted systems may be completely reno.
vated and built up anew. Enlarged glands,
tumors and swellings dwindle away and dis
appear under the influence of these great re-
solvents.

same time very telling one. he made the first
i've miles by In. 5m. 35s and the next five by 2h.
I'm. 1888. and still circling the arena
with the peculiar lorm OF stride which appertaIns

TO overcome the feeling and get TO WORK again.
His hitieth mile scored at 1oh. 3srn 30s. when
he once more went to his couch on the track and
rested 40m. 25s This somewhat long lay-od
seemed TO refresh him considerably and he started
