LIBERALTrY OF PHYsICIANs.-It has
always been said that physicians would
disparage any remedy, however valuable,
which they cid not originate themselves.
This has been dsproved by their liberal
course towards DR. j. G. AYERS prepa-
rations They have adopted them into
general use in their practice, which shows
a willingness to counteHGlce articles that
have intrinsic merits which deserve their
attention This does the learned protes-
sion great credit, and effeetuatiy contra
diets the prevalent erroneous notion that
their opposition to proprietary reaeeles
is based on their interest to discard them.
We have always had condolences IN the
honorable motives of our medical men,
and are glad to find it sustained by the
liberal welcome they accord to such rem
edies as AVER & Cos inimitable remedies,
even though they are not ordered in the

PRACTICAL BENEvoLENcE

The Young Mems Christian Assoeia-
ton did good thing the other day
one of the coldest days of the winter.
They made coffee, steaming hot and very
strong, and depuhZed men to stand at
convenient places and give 1t to the dri-
vers of street cars. The poor fellows
standing all day on the front platform,
exposed to the fury of the elements,
found q mug of coffee not only grateful
but useful. It did more to warm them
than the lightning whisky they were IN
the habit of taking, and it is pleasant
fact to record that the next day conee
shops were more freely patronized by
the car dryers than the whisky mills
Possibly the Y. N. q. A. desired to show
how superior coffee is to whisky. II was
a good and Thoughtful thing TO do, at all
events.
By the way, the car dryers have about
the worst lives ANY laboring men inlthe
city. They work from fifteen to seven
teen hours day in all sorts Of weather,
and receive therefor the magnificent pay
of $2.15 per day. And they take the
chances Of being killed by roughs, or
freezing to death, and various other uu-
pleasant things, is 1t any wonder that
they strike once in whilep Il Is a
shame that men should be compelled to
work at such fearfuly exhaustive labor
so many hours for such Insignificant pay,
particularly when the corporation owing
them are making money by the cord, but
what can they do They have to live,
and should they all quit, their places
would be filed in days time. There
are too many men out of work In New
York to enable labor to successfully dis
puie with capital. II the Y. N, O. A
could only Induce the corporations tc
