fifty-siX thousand dollars for n medical
fee. That is the amount that Miss Pauline
Hoeml, a young German woman living on
Olive street, St. Louis. and her guardians
have agreed to pay DR.. William Bradley if
he cures her of Il little mental trouble
which has bothered her since her child
hood. The contracts have been made ont
and as soon Us Miss llocml is pronounced
sound in mind by referees, who have been
appointed, DR.. Bradley will receive his
S5G coo.
Miss Hoeml is the only American heir to
a fortune of upward of million dollars,
left by her father in Berlin, Germany. She
is also descendant of noble family of
the German empire. The fortune was de-
vsed by will to the C..ildrpn of Herr Hoeml
and other relatives, codicil providing that
Miss lIoeml's portion should remain intact
until such time MS the trustees of the prom
erty should consider her recovered from her
mental troubles. Should she never be
mentally sound, the codcil reads. then her
share shall be equally divided at her death
among the surviving heirs.
The will also provides that while I'M
sound in mind Miss IIoeml is to receive
only so month, the balance of the in
tcreSt to be annually added to the estate.
Miss lioemTs portion now amounts to
sltS,OM. The young womans trouble is
simply that she has made no mental ad-
vancement since she was ten years old and
her mind is sometimes overcome by a cloud
that shuts off the past. Shortly after her
father death Miss IIoeml and her widow
ed mother moved to America, where the
latter became the wife of Il well known St
LOuisian Since their arrival in America
the friends Of the girl have made vigorous
efforts to have her cured but so far have
met with Indifferent success.
After examining the young lady DR..
Bradley said he could cure her, whcreupon
the mother exclaimed that her daughter
would gladly give u third of her fortune if
she could have the cloud, which she ap-
parently knows hangs over her mind, re-
moved.-St Louis Post-Dispatch.

Studying Medicine with Success.

The Woman's journal tells an inspiring
story of the success of one of the southern
women physicians, Mrs. DR.. Cady, of Lou
isville. Having taste for medicine and q
little experience from treating the simple
ailments of her own colored tenants, Mrs.
Cady, finding herself obliged to support
her family, entered and was graduated
from the medical college in St. Louis A
few weeks before commencement her ninth
child was born, and eleven days later she
was again at her place in the lecture room.
She returned home with her baby and her
diploma, resumed the care of her family
and began the practice of her profession,
in which she has achieved remarkable sue
cess. In estimating the comparative capa-
bilities for work between the sexes condi-
tions of this kind are rarely taken into
consideration.
