\ Matter of PrOprIcty.

The Homecoming Star demurs to the
JOURNALS account of the third game
of the series.
1t thinks 'the great paper was Il
little too personal.
We could meet this objection by
substituting the impersonal form, for
instance, thus
The Homecoming star shook hands with
Pollock.
But there is something 50 grotesque
in the idea of a star having hands and
of engaging in hilarious enjoyment,
that we could not adopt that method
of describing very thrilling per-
Torrance.
The JOURNALS notion of newspaper
decorum on the ball field, as in church,
is to report the occurrences. not to
assist in making them.
The JOURNAL would no more coach
a runner than it would nag preacher.
If it did, it would expect to be
treated as an individual-not a paper.
The Great Paper Not in II.
The attacks on DIR. NJ G. Porter by the diff.
terent Frostburg sheets in their last week S is
sues were uncallcd for, and the statements con-
corning his decisions at the game on August
% were exaggerated. and to great extent
untrue. We had credited Frostburg writers
with better sense than to attack man in
such a manner because he unintentionaly
may have made a nlistakc.-LonacOning
Rc"jer.
Undoubtedly the Rerie,r SHOULD have
read the JOURNAL before publishing
the above paragraph.
The JOURNAL not only acquitted the
doctor of unfairncsS, but it rebuked
the unthinking boys for their treat
ment of him.
Per r0htra, the Sur read and replied
to the Journal, but 1t said not word
indicating that it saw any injustice to
the doctor.
And the Star, on the glound, was a
much louder partisan of the doctor
than the Reriem.

Physicians and Their Drugs.

The active competition for a living
that the physician in New York has to
encounter has resulted in a curious
method for stimulating trade. There
are doctors in this city, graduates in
due form and nc doubt in many cases
men Of ability, who remit all fees fol-
consultation relying on the profits they
obtain from the medicines they pre-.
scribe for emolument. Certain standard
prescriptions they have put up in guam.
titles, and these they sell directly to
the patient. Where a prescription has
to be compounded the patient is sent
to q certain drug store, ut which the
doctor has an arrangement for his
commissions.
Between these two devices the prac-
titioner really captures a reasonable fee,
and he gets it, moreover, in cash, where
he otherwise might have to give credit,
with a strong show of loss, for though
patients will not dream of demanding
credit for medicines, they make very
small bones about leaving the doctors
bill unpaid n he has permitted them
torun it up.-New York Cor. Pittsburg
Bulletin.
