The New York Sun Of q recent
date says sit will no doubt surprise
many persons to learn that three
quarters of the best known physi-
cans of New York were born south
of Mason and Dixon's line, and are
consequently only New Workers by
adoption. This statement is made
upon the authority of an eminent
physician on Madison avenue, who
had an occasion to investigate the
subject. The class of physicians
referred to are those whose incomes
are from $4,000 a year upward.
They are men who have attained
rank in the general practice of
medicine. Many of them have dis
tinguished themselves by important
discoveries in medical science and
surgery"
