What is He Going to Do.

The graduation Of some five or six
thousand young medical men during
the present spring is an event of
deep Importance to the profession.
What are they going to do? is the
question asked, not only by the par
ties especially interested, but by the
profession and public at large. The
New York Times, which always dis
cusses medical questions with more
than ordinary fairness and intelli
gence, has recently applied itself to
the problem just suggested, There
is now, it says, in the United States
one physician to every five hundred
inhabitants. The ratio of sick to
well during the year is estimated at
about twenty per one thousand, in
Guiding the paupers This would
give about ten patients to each prnc-
titioner; but of these many are too
poor to pay, and many do not call in a
physician, so that five or six patients
are all that can be allowed for each
medical man.
Another method of studying the
question is as follows: The ratio of
deaths is, for the whole country, not
far from twenty per one thousand an
nually. For every death there are
about twenty-five cases Of sickness,
or five hundred eases per one thou
sand annually. This would give an
average of two hundred az fifty pa
TENTS per year for eac4 physician
But this number must be reduced
nearly one-half, by subtracting those
who do not pay, and those who are
not i'll enough to need physician.
With the present number Of physi-
clans, therefore, there would be two
or three patients per week for each,
if they were equally divided.
What need is there, then, for six
thousand new doctors annually? If
they do what they expect, if they
practice and prosper, it must be at
the expense of those already in the
iield.-Medicdi Record

PORT TOWNSEND
HOSPITAL.
Port Townsend W. 7.

The above institution having been placed on
a permanent footing, as the United States Hos
pltal for marine patients on Puget Sound, the
proprietor takes pleasure in announcing thatno
pains or expense will be spared in ministering
to the comfort and convenience Of private pc
tients.
This is the largest General Hospital north OF
San Francisco, and by far the most complete
in equipment. 1t has been thoroughly re-
fitted and refurnished. Its general wards
have accommodations for about one hundred
patients, and are peculiarly adapted for. cases
requiring the most careful treatment and con-
stant supervision Mt limited expense. Those
who desire them will befurnished with private
rooms entirely separate and distinct at slight
additional cost.
say"The attention of Mill-owners, and those
interested in shipping, is called to the fact that
seamen suffering from contagious diseases will
be treated outside the Hospital without expense
to the vessel.

quently substituted for potatoes at
the chief meal of the day, being more
nutritious and much more readily
digested. At its present cost, it is
relatively cheaper than potatoes, oat-
meal or grain-grits of any kind. In
preparing it only just enough cold
water should be poured on to prevent
tho rice from burning at the bottom
of the pot, which should have q close
fitting cover, and with a moderate fire
the rico is steamed rather than boiled
until it is nearly done, then the cover
is taken of, the surplus steam and
moisture allowed to escape, and the
rice turns out a mass of snow-white
kernels, each separate from the
other, and as much superior to the
usual soggy mass, as q fine mealy
potato is superior to the water
soaked article.

AMBER SoUp.-Fry a large chicken
with a small piece Of pork and a large
onion. Put them into the soup pot
with two or three pounds of veal or
beef and a gallon of cold water Let
them simmer slowly for four hours,
skimming very frequently. Add then
a small carrot, a turnip, one stick Of
celery, two sprigs of parsley, four
cloves, half a teaspoonful of small
pepper corns and a little salt. Let it
simmer slowly for another hour,
strain and return it to the pot. Sea
son it to taste with cayenne pepper
and salt. Add the slightly-beaten
whites and shells Of two eggs, stirring
well to the bottom Of the pot. Let
it como to an active boil, then set it
upon the back of the range. When
boiling ceases and it becomes per-
fectly still, skim it well, add table
spoonful or more of caramel and
Q rye.

Satisfy FRITTERs.--As you scrape
and clean each root throw it into
cold water, to which you have added
q tablespoonful OF vinegar. This will
keep them from turning black, which
will occur if they are exposed to the
mir. After they are all scrapcd boil
them until tender, then, after drain
ing we'll, mash them through q col
ander to smooth paste, picking out
all stringy parts. Moisten this pulp
with milk, then dress it with butter,
pepper, salt and beaten egg, as baked
egg plant is dressed, Form the mix
ture into small cakes, then dip them
into beaten egg, then in cracker or
bread-crumbs, and fry them in boil
ing lard. The flavor of these fritters
is somewhat like that Of fried oysters.

The marked feature Of ancient

thick. though only eleven feet high.
In old London bridge the piers were

bic waterway at low water was rather
less than one-fourth Of the width of
river spanned by the bridge. The
London Builder thinks that the
modern tendency is tomako the piers

1aEmoRs or the EARTH.

The London Times publishes
synopsis of some papers on the
tremors of the earth," by the
committee appointed to measure the
lunar disturbance Of gravity, and by
Mr.. G. Darwin, which contains
some statements new to the public.
1t is considered proved by the men
of science engaged that the crust Of
the earth bends under the weight
imposed on it, till "when the baro-
meter rises an inch over land area
like that of Australia, the increased
load of air sinks the entire continent
two or three inches below the normal
level" The land actually sinks and
rises under the pressure of the mass
of water thrown upon it by the tides,
the maximum of rise and fall on the
Atlantic seaboard reaching five
inches. This effect is felt at the
bottom of the deepest mine, and
may reach for an unknown distance.
1t follows that the crust of the earth
must be of exceeding tenacity,
exceeding rs a maximum that Of
granite; and its swayings may be
the causes of phenomena hitherto
quite unexplained, as, for example,
the relation between storm and
earthquake. SO universal, frequent,
and unavoidable are these distur-
Dances that the inquiry into the lunar
disturbance of gravity has been given
up. No depth can he found at
which a recording instrument can
be placed SO as to escape their effect.
The round earth pants, in fact, like
breathing being, under the changes
always going on above her.

A Jolly crowd of commercial

a Chicago hotel, cracking jokes and

ed to a chum who was reading a
paper:
81 shouldn't think Jim Bennett
would sit there and pore over that
old sheet. Why, if | was as rich as
he is I'd raise the roof right off this
house."
The countryman's eyes fairly
bulged out with wonder when he
heard this a!lusion to the editor of
such big paper, and he slowly
gathered himself up and shuffied
toward the chair occupied by the
alleged Bennett. Gazing at him
curiously for moment, he said, in a
fiattering voice, "are you Mr.. Bennett
the editor of the New York Herald?"
The drummer looked up in amaze
ment: but catching wind from the
rest of the boys, he quietly replied;
"That's what people say"

A very curious phenomenon is in
progress OH the eastern coast Of the
Caspian sea. The Kara Boghaz is
an estuary nearly separated from the
main body of the sea by a bank
through which there is an inlet. The
evaporation from this gulf is so great
and that current continually sets in
from the main body of the Caspian;
as there is no return current, the
water of the gulf becomes more and
more saliferOus, and deposit of
salt is in course Of formation. In
time this gulf will be cut off from
the Caspian, and will then be dried
up and become an extensive salt bed.
An entire Gallo Roman town has
been unearthed in the neighborhOod
of Poitiers. 1t contains temple ia
yards in length by 20 yards in breadth
baths occupying five acres, theatre
of which the stage alone measures 80
yards on its longest side; streets,
houses and other buildings, covering
space of more than seventeen acres.
The excavations, which are being
continued, have brought to light more
editices, sculpture in the very best
style and in good preservation
dating, it is thought, from the second
century-and quantity of iron,
bronze and earthen articles. +. Lisch,
the inspector of historic monuments,
declares that the town is q little
POmpei in the center of France.
The Scientific american having
mentioned as quick work the laying
of railroad track at the rate of two
miles day, Canadian paper says:
"The Canada Pacific are ahead of
this by long way. They have laid
as many as ten miles a day; and on
the occasion of the trip of the Press
Association up the line they laid
down a short piece at the rate Of a
mile an hour"
The idea of piercing the Isthmus
of Malacca, which is a matter of
considerable interest in France, is
being actively pursued. The French
Consul at Siam, DIR. Harmand, the
celebrated explorer of the Indo
Chinese peninsula, has just surveyed
the ground, with the cooperation of
the King of that country, and has
reported that the scheme is perfectly
practicable. The King, it is stated,
has expressed his willingness to make
a concession to M. de Lesseps.
! A mining superintendent in the
West says that by the use of the
chronograph he ascertained the fact
that the long pump hobs in his mine
moved down at the top before they
stopped coming up at the bottom
that is, they went both ways at once.
This seems absurd, but it is rational,
for the pump bob being 5000 feet
long, and made of wood, some time
elapses before motion at one end is
transmitted through to the other. 1t

Engineers and others who claim
to speak authortively inform us that
there Is not the least doubt but that
good flowing wells can be got here on
the Superior town site and not farth-
er back than sixth or seventh streets.
Mr.. Shaw, chairman of the Board of
Supervisors informs us that, in view
OF this very reliable information, the
authorities will, in the spring, COM
mence boreing for such results. In
this connection we would also say that
at present there is no public money
available for this purpose, not a dollar
to be had even for the repair of pumps
and this is a matter which needs to be
looked after. The town has got to be
supplied with water or go back to its
original condition and again become
a desolate waste. Let estimates be
made and abundant means provided
to meet the demands of this water
question. 1t is one of vital import
ance to the town.
