A Suggestion for city rhysicians.

The emergency which occurred re
Gently in a family living above Twenty
third street and below Fifty-ninth street
should serve as suggestion to physi
clans Of that district. Shortly after Il
o'clock in the forenoon the wife and
mother of the household referred to fell
and spralned her ankle as she was about
to enter her carriage in front of her resi-
dence. She was Immediately assisted
into the house and the c%oachnan dis.
patched to the family physician.
he soon returned with the word that
the doctor was out, and a round among
the medical Offices followed with the
same result. Every physician in that
neighborhood appeared to have the same
Office hours and not one could be reached.
1t was over an hour before the suffering
woman got medical assistance, and thes
it was through her work in a certain
hospital that one of the surgeons wasdis-
patched to her relief.
It would seem to be a good plan for
doctors to arrange their Office koursw1th
some regard to those Of other mc1ical
men in the same district. SO that-one or
two should be always o. cali, good as
weHfor the profession as for the laity.-
