Iounging In the lobby OF n prominent New
York hotel, met q gentleman whom he had
known ears before in the city OF Detroit
but whom he had mol seen before for a num-
Der OF years When lhe knight Of the gull
had last seen this gentleman, he was giving
his entire time and attention to an extensive
medical practice. and WAS on the crest Of the
wave of popularity From Detrolt mere
moved to New YORK where he could nnd q
more extensive neid for his talents and ex-
perienoe. Although several years had passed

looking much better than when the man oil

peoially a physician, to do ana that is have

too; but l nave after years OF experience and

truth is the highest OF al things. and that II
prejudice OF bigotry stand in the way OF
uuth-so much the worse for them-they are
certain to be crushed sooner or later. Why.
when l knew you in Detroit. l would have
no sooner thought of violating the code OF
ethics laid down by the profession. or OF pre-
scribing anything out OF the regular order.

q Invariably and 1t Is sufficient ground for
