WASHINGTON THE CONVENTION CITY.

A notable gathering will assemble in this
city tomorrow, and the body will be in ses-
sion for the next three days. The occasion
will be the third triennial session of the Con-
gress of American Physicians and Surgeons,
and the meetings will be held In Metzerott
hall.
This congress is composed of fourteen ma
tional associations, comprising one in each
great department Of medicine and surgery.
Each of these associations elects delegate to
the Congress, and this body constitutes an
executive committee and elects its own chair
man and the president of the congress. At
the meetings papers are read and discussed
relating to every branch of medicine and
surgery, and 1t is expected that the coming
session will be one of the most largely at
tended and in other respects the most success
full ever heard.
Washington is now easily in the lead as the
great national convention city. Last week
we had some of the Drawn Of the land. repre-
sented by the horseshoers, and during the
present week the doctors will be the city s
welcome guests. Every advance in medical
science is watched with great interest, and in
no profession has there been such material
progress made during the last half century as
in the art of healing. 1t is science closely
connected with the well being of the human
race, and for that reason, If for no other, the
national capital bids the doctors welcome.
THE TIMES hopes they will have good time,
and that their session will be productive of
much good to suffering humanity.

The men who write fashion notes in New

men who know how to dress sore In spirit.
Here comes q writer who says that the most
fashionable form Of frock coat Il made OF
dark mixtures and worn unbuttoned. A gen.
tiemah never wears his clothes unbuttoned II
he desires to bo considered good form. As q
matter OF fact, lots OF us do because the exi-
gencies Of life and business force rs to be
easy In matters Of attire. But 3. man who
wears an overcoat, a frock coat. cutaway or
a sack unbuttoned is just as certainly in un-
dress as a man who would permit himself to
be seen with his waistcost unbuttoned.
never to be worn over anything but heavy
walking shoes. A "spat" is q gaiter. Caters
are worn usually with low shoes and are de-
signed to protect the hosiery.
A man who wears gaiter over o shoe, the
upper Of which Is extended above the ankle,
has about as ludicrous an idea OF the fitness
OF things as q man who would wear long
trousers tucked Into high boots. The basis Of
good dressing is common sense. No man
should ever wear anything that has not some
Idea Of usefulness attached to II. He may
wear shirt studs. but never pin Of any sort
stuck in his shirt bosom for ornament only.
