Incompetent Doctors.

With the exception of one college in
New York and two in other states, says
Barnes Educational monthly, any one
may become a medical student without
preliminary examinations in anything,
moral character not excepted. Stu
dents are often graduated at the close
of two years. study, and in some insti-
tutions the course of instruction is even
nations for diplomas are not at all
rigid, knowledge even of chemical
analysis not being required. There is
not single doctor in one of the coun-
ties in western New York who can con-
duct a decent chemical analysis, or
even tell whether his nitrate of bismuth
does or does not contain arsenic. A
doctor recently stated on examination
that the proper dose of prussic acid for
a child two years old was from four to
six drops! AS general thing, doctors
in rural places, and in some of our
cities as well, stick to the antiquated
remedies and outrageous doses. We
think our educational journals ought to
stir up the young doctors to more dill
gent habits as students. Each one of
them should have his chemical labora-
tory, where he daily should conduct
such chemical analysis as sickness de-
mands. If doctors were little more
enterprising and pushing, we should
know something more concerning such
diseases as typhoid fever, diphtheria,
scarlet fever and measles. Call two
doctors in succession to a child attacked
with one of these diseases, and the
probabilities are they will give you
contradictory explanations and totally
different remedies. This is no recon-
mendatiOn to the medical profession.
Because doctors are not scientific, the
practice of medicine is not conducted
on scientific principles, and medicine is
not to-day a science. 1t is a practice,
we admit, much to the honor of sensi-
tive tastes. The day will be hailed
with joy by a diseased world when this
practice is conducted on scientific prin-
ciples. We laymen would like to know
many things our medical advisers will
not tell us, simply because they cannot.
Let us have some light on these diseas-
es lurking unsubdued in all parts of our
land. 1t is your duty to enlighten the
world, and if you are the students you
should be, some of you will bless this
humanity of ours by telling exactly
what will cure certain diseases, and
why it will do so. You should be paid
to prevent as well as cure. We would
rather give you twenty-five dollars to
keep us well, than ten to cure us when
sick.

good boarding places there.
Just a word more. Husbands and
brothers, if you cannot go away your
selves, let your wives and sisters, shut
up in the house, over steaming suds,
hot stoves, in sweltering kitchens, go
and get rested. Live on bread and
milk, if necessary, for week or two
weeks, but let them go. The change
will be beneficial to all parties. The
pale, worn and haggard look that will
leave them, the sparkle that will come
back to the eye, and the flush that will
recOlor the cheek, to say nothing about
the sunshine they will shed in the home
circle as the result of their going, in the
months to come, will more than repay
you for your expense and incOnveni-
ence. Let them go, we say, and go
yourself, if you can. Count health and
cheeriness above every other gain. And
you cannot have either without they
and you have an occasional respite from

Y Two farmers in Santa Clara coun-
ty, Cal, are having a queer law suit.
One had a fine artesian well on his
grounds, yielding water enough to irri-
gate large strawberry beds and an
orchard during the dry season. The
other day well sunk on the adjoining
property struck the identical vein of
water which supplied the first, and
effectually checked it's flow. Land
owner No. then instituted suit for
damages for injury to his well, while
No. 2 claims that the well he dug, and
which No. l considers as injurious, was
dug on his own property and therefore
was not an injury which No. 1 could
ask redress for. The case is still hotly
contested.

That Ordinance.

We havn't seen it and don't know
who made it, nor how far its provis-
ions are inexorable, or may be modi-
fed by those who administer it in fa-
vor of goodish sort of poor people.
1t is explained by the City Marshal
to require him to collect IS from any
person who gives any meeting or en-
tertainment, where a fee is charged
foradmission. He accordingly made
sundry and divers applications to us
to pay SIS for each evening of the
lectures of Prof. johnson, on the
Land of the Midnight Sum-" or, as
we demurred to such payments, he
insisted we should stand betwixt
him and all harm for not collecting
the said sums of money, we agreed,
before witness to make such indem-
nifty whenever it becomes necessary.
If resident city pastor in Olympia
cannot hold a meeting in his own
church for religious or literary pur-
posses and charge an admission fee
to meet necessary expenses without
being annoyed by demand for S.
by order of the City Fathers then
We conclude Olympia ,cW be a
good place to emigrate from at con.
venient season. It is within the linn
it's Of the conceivable and possible
that a law might be framed that
would discriminate between taxing
the gains of showmen, on the boards
of theatre or menagerie, and such
services as are proper inside the walls
of a Christian church.

wrapped his mantle about him and
quietly stole aboard the Zephyr, to
