What a Prominent and Well
Known New York Physi-
clan Told a Reporter.
Nj. Revelations Upon. Subject of vital


and learning extendins over n long period O
time must necessarily be valuable, ant
while no two experiences In this world ar,

judging the future but by the past; and pas
personal experience Is OF the same nature a
that history which repeats itself.

lounging In the lobby of . prominent New
York hotel, met a gentleman whom he had
known years before In the city Of Detroit
but whom he had not seen before for q mum
Der Of years. When the knight Of the quill
had last seen this gentleman. he was giving
his entire time and attention TO an e~xtensivs
medical practice. and was on the crest Of the
wave OF popularity. From Detroit he re.
moved 70 New York where he could md q
more extensive Geld for his talents and ex-
perience. Although several years had passed
the doctors physical condition had evident
ly been very much improved. for he was
looking much better than hen the man OF
news had last seen him. Alter some general
talk. the doctor fell into an easy train OF con-
v~ersation and uttered some truths so scien-
tine ana valuable, as 10 justiy their repro
