CAN'T GET JUSTICE
Through tho Medical Examining Boards in
tho South.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: want to say
something in regard to Medical Examining
Boards in tho South, and show the injustice
done tho old soldiers by these Boards. ], for
one, believe that such Boards should be consti-
tuted and represented by Surgeons who thcm-
selves were old Union soldiers; but am sorry
to say such is not the case Take, for instance,
the Board at Little Rock, Ark. DR.. Ayers, the
President of tho Board was Surgeon in the
Federal army; the other two gentlemen. As
understand, were not in any army; both are,
comparatively speaking. too young. 1 do not
know what their political sentiments may be,
nor does that cut any figure in the case. The
point want to mako il simply this: What fra
ternal feeling can there exist in the heart OF
physician who mover was in the army towards
an old veteran soldier who served his country
in the hours of nesd7 They know nothing of
, the hardships and privations OF the long and
weary marches etc., that the old Federal SOL
der was exposed to. Again, no doubt, many
of them are not in sympathy with the old SOL
dier-with his Affections, from which thou
sands of them suffer, and which are the result
Of tho service.
The Board at Yelena, Ark 10 similarly con.
stituted. The President one DR.. Jaquess, was
an old Union Army Surgeon: but both OF the
others am confident, were either very Young
1T the time of the war, if born at all before the
war. Now have no personal feeling toward
| these young doctors. but only ask in justice to
| the old soldiers, is this right2 Should not the

| To demonstrate case In view will recite
my own. and you and all other comrades Will
readily see that was not fairly treated by the
Board upon my last examination, some IL
months ago. aud to prove my assertion will

| and now in my possession, from com rade In
| Minneapolis Mimi. Said comrade writes to
me, under date Of Sept. 10, 1892, thus: u

another person after each action OF the bowels

Right here want to say no doubt but what
| the comrade il fully entitled to his present
rating and may, perhaps, be entitled to the
! benefits of the act of Jnly Is. 1892; but what
| an after is to show that We Union soldiers
who unfortunately live in the South de not

An English magazine advises the following
methods for keeping the hands in the best con-
dition: A good soap. aided by pinch or two
of cracked oatmeal, may be used for . thorough
cleaning twice day, using warr1 water in
preference to hot. Once . week they should
be rubbed back and front and around the
fingers with . piece of lemon. A very good
cam phor-ics for use when tho hands chap can
be made at home by melting pure white wax
and dropping into 1t several drops Of spirits of
esmphor, stirring the WAX until it is about the
consistency of cream. For hands that are very
red the same authority ad vises the use Of gly-
cerine, lemon juice and rose-water In equal
parts. Rub the hands at night with it, and
draw on 9 pair of loose gloves Tight sleeves
and finger-rings that fit snugly will make the
hands red.
