recent action of the Lancaster medical society
In 1nstituting legal proceedings against several
well-known practitioners on the charge of a
violation of the statute governing the practice
OF medicine and surgery, is enhanced by the

Dr. e. A. Greene. who recently hung out his

treatment OF socalled hopeless cases of all
forms of disease, and says he will prove him
self to have been consistent and aggressive
opponent of quackery and empiricism tn what
ever shape. His special invitation to the NOM
bers of the medical society has the snap of de-
fance In 1t. and there will doubtless be large
turnout of citizens to see and hear this --latest t
phase of the contest between the regulars and
the alleged "empirics."
