What Doctors SlbOa}d Know.

An exchange which devotes special at
tention to sanitary affairs suggests that
the several hundred young physicians
just graduated should supplement their
studies by course in hygiene. The adj
vice is eminently good, but many man
will open his eyes in astonishment when
he realizes that physicians need any such
counsel; it seems as strange as to advise
business men to study arithmetic or
preachers to peruse the Bible. The plain
truth is, however, that while the medical
schools teach young men how to allevi-
ate pain and heal the sick the greater
art of preventing disease is in its infancy.
How many physicians are competent to
discover whether the atmosphere of a
residence is pure or poisonous by reason
of imperfect drainage? How many can
detect impurities in drinking wAter-one
cl the most prolific causes OF death In
country homesp Have death-dealing hot
air furnaces been banished from any con-
siderable number of homes by medical
adviceP Have many families been in
structed by, their respective physicians
upon the necessity and methods of home
ventilationp Is the family food supply
and the manner of preparing it fire.
quent subject of professional advice? All
these are matters of the gravest impor-'
tance as affecting human life, yet nine
families in ten are continually violating
sanitary rules regarding one or the other
without word of remonstrance from
their medical advisers, and there is good
ground for belief that physicians own
families suffer as much as any Others
from neglect of these and kindred hygi-
enic requirements. Until the days of
this ignorance are gone medical atten-
tons will not rise above the level of mere
pottering. !. Let the new generation OF
physicians regard these things if they
would secure and retain a good class of
patients. To attend family of children
through diphtheria without losing any is
quite success, but a greater one would
be to discover and abolish the cause when
the malady first manifests itself, and the
same is true of the many other diseases
that are due to local conditions.-N. Y.

New York City and Its Population.

New York is almost the only American
city which does net wish to grow. The
census is next to asubiect of indifference,
because the more people who inhabit this
narrow, limited area of island the greater
is the individual cost of rent, food, the
alter tickets and church pews. Not one
citizen in three can tell you the last
known population of New York, though
1t was 1,O4l 1856 by the State census OF
1875. 1t is now not less than LOO, 600
within the municipal limits. Brooklyn,
in another county, has 550, 900, the
Westchester settlement to our north 100
600, and the cities of Newark, Jersey
City, Paterson and Richmond 800, 600.
The metropolitan district contains 2, 900,
600 people. n II ssi =" h.
We are also the funnel of New En-
gland and at the end of the tube of the
Hudson. There are 5000, 600 of men
who can do half q days business in New
York City, get breakfast and sup at
home. Competition was distanced here
by nature when she made Long Island
Sound, the Hudson, the Passaic and Rar-
itan all flow into New York Bay; the
British occupation of New York for seven
years would have ruined any other site,
as it ruined Newport in two.
In 1890 New York County had only
33, 600 people to Albany's Il, 900. Though
Sblockaded all the period of the war of
1912, the city emerged from it with 100,-
900 people and by 1880 had over 200. 900
and has doubled since 1850. New York

An Election In a Swiss Canton.

Near to Sargans the Rhine becomes tnc
dividing line between the Austrian Tyrol
and East Switzerland. The Swiss Can
ton of Appenzell-" little land Of
Appenzell with its pastoral people
and its queer customs, runs in here TO
get peep at the passing river. These
Appenzellers are n very democratic peo-
pie, even for democratic Switzerland. IL
is not only that every man has n voice In
the law-making that il is democratic.
but it is also in the primitive way in
which that will is expressed. There was
a time when peoples chose their kings by
meeting en- mdsss on field, and giving
the tallest man the crown. Something
very similar is practiccd even now in lit
tie Appenzell.
Every May-day the whole voting pop

listens to a prayer. Then follows the
affairs of state, decided simply by show

Animals Learning by Perception.

The education of animals by each other.
an indisputable fact, is inconsistent with
the notion of immutable and perfect in
stinct. The truth is, that many young
animals. require tuition. for the proper
development of their physical and men,
tai nature, Just as the human child does.
Thus the cider duck gives its offspring
lessons in swimming. the sea-swallow in
fishing, the eagle in flight, the horse and
mule in the application of cautiousness
and adroitness in the avoidance of OBJ
stacles. The COW and goat instruct their
Young in the use of the head as a weapon
Of ofense and defense; falcons teach
their offspring to catch and eat their
prey in the airS chickens have TO learn
not to eat certain substances as well rs
how to drink; many young birds require
tuition in song, inasmrch as they are not
natural songstcrs. We scarcely need re-
mind the reader that in the trimming or
breaking in Of sporting dogs, old thor
oughly-bred animals act as tutors, man
here, however, supervising the process
of instruction. In like manner domestic
elephants are almost indispensable CO.
agents in tanning their wild comrades.
Self-education occurs in other animals
under the same circumstances as in man.
involving the same mental qualities. dis
played in the same way. Various birds
learn for themselves the songs or notes
of other species, and have concerts
among themselves. The mocking-bird
and Jay learn their lessons by practice,
precisely as children do. Elephants have
their rehearsals by themselves, as was
long ago pointed out by Pliny, and has
been confirmed in modern times by
Buckland; they practice for their dane
ing feats. The horse, too, when alone.
practices its dancing lessons. Many ami
mails profit by the very accidents that be-
fall them Thus the bee, after one at
tack on its hive by the death s-head moth.
accepts the incident as a warning of
what is likely TO happen again. and
forthwith makes provision for the con-
tingency. This learning Of lessons in

mistakes, and implies also what in man
Is called study or meditation. -" Mind iR
