Woman Physicians.

According to recent statistics there
are about 1000 women practicing
medicine on the continent of North
America of whom $50 are homeoparh-
lists. The majority are ordinary prac-
titioners, but among the remainder
are seventy hospital physicians or sur
geons, ninety-five professors in the
schools, 610 specialists for the diseases
of women, seventy alienists, sixty-five
orthopedists, forty oculists and aurists,
and finally thirty electro-therapeutists.
In canada there is but one medical
school exclusively devoted to the
training of medical ladies, but in the
United States in 1898 there were ten,
one of them being a homeopathic es,

MISTAKEN IN ONE LETTER.
The Hotel Man Tsisgrsphsd for Cots

Tho Hotel Man Tsisgrsphsd for Cots
and Got = ConsIgn mont of Cats.
VIII johnson, who was in charge Of
the Hotel johnson during the absence
of the proprietor, +. l.. johnson. who
was at Atlantic City, says theWashing-
ton Post, received dispatch from the
latter which read:
"Ship forty cats ut once"
Mr.. johnson was puzzled. He could
not imagine what his relative could
want with cats at Atlantic City, SO he
consulted with few of his assistants,
and the only solution they could arrive
at was that rats must have boon dis
covered in the Atlantic City hostelry.
They unanimously decided, however,
that it was theirs not to reason why;
theirs but to get cats and ship them to
Atlantic City without delay. A rush
was made for all the establishments in
town which deal in pet animals, but
all the cats on hand were of the
Maltese or Angora variety, and it was
decided that they were too expensive.
As final result the genus boy was
called into requisition, and before
nightfall there were eighteen feline
prisoners at the johnson. There
were no more in sight, though, SO it
was decided to ship the first INSTALL
ment that night and make further
consignment next day. A telegram
was sent to Mr. johnson at Atlantic
City which announced
''Shipped eighteen cats; more to-
morrow"
Mr.. johnson has reputation for
wanting things in a hurry when he
does want them, so his assistants at
this end of the line returned well sat-
istied that they had acquitted them
selves with great credit in sudden
emergency. Early the next morning
another dispatch arrived which in
fused every one concerned with a de-
sire to sneak away somewhere and be-
gin life anew. 1t read:
40 Shanghai with your cats. It's
cots, cots, cots"
To complete the story it is only fair
to state that Mr.. johnson writes no.
toriously bad hand, and those inter-
ested here say the operator must have
mistaken cots for cats.

One Hundred Years AGO.

These were the wages in Delaware
and Maryland 100 years ago: White
laborEs by the day, at any time OF the
year, shilling 6 pence; free blacks,
about ! shilling; labor in harvest, 4
shillings, pence; free blacks by the
year, Is shillings; hired slaves, f7
shillings; overseers, f22 10 shillings.
All these workmen received board and
lodgings besides. Canal diggers in
those parts then had 46 shillings per
meath, with board, lodgings and all
necessaries. The hired slaves re-
ceived clothing also. The building of
the city of Washington at that time
raised mechanics wages at Baltimore.
Masons working at the new city re-
ceived 6 to Z shillings per day; car
penters, shillings 8! pence to 6 shil-
lings, and negro laborers SO shillings
per month, board and clothing.

THE SEAT OF EMPIRE.
Chicago Is the biggest City on the


Chicago Is the biggest City on the
American Continent.
The total male registration in Chi
cago this year is 31s,678. The registra-
ton In New York Is 309,O31. Upon the
basis Of one voter to seven of the popu-
lstion this would give Chicago s6, 100
more inhabitants than New York.
After every explanation that can be
made of this showing, the fact remains
that Chicago has for the moment
beaten New York in the contest for
rank in voters and population. That
solidating the territory and population
that naturally belong to her does not
dstract from her credit. Chicago's in
crease In population is without par
allel in the history of the world. 1t is
the greatest triumph in the annals
Of American growth, energy and en-
terprise. The city was mere trading
post siXty-three years ago. It's charter
is dated March 3, 1887, when the popu-
lation was 4,170, of whom only 1903
were voters. In 1910 the population
had increased to 4,47o, IN 1850, to 90
96s, in 1850 to 1l2,172, in 1870 to a9s,-
OFT, In 1850 to SOB, lS5 and in 1890 to
l,oo9, $50 Upon the basis of this years
registration the newspapers claim u
population of a,l75,73a. This is indeed
IA marvellous showing. 1t is one of
which all Americans have reason to be
proud, even rs they were proud of that
greatest and most beautiful of Chi
cago's achievements, the White City of
the Worlds Fair. New York World.

octaves, upward from the T below mid
die G lit Is the lowest Of varieties of the
female voice. In mediaval music, in
which the melody was either in a mid

the upper voice was naturally called
altus. AS music for mixed voices de-
veloped, that female voice which was
nearest the altus, and thus most con.

INDUSTRIAL DEPRESSIONS.
Written for the Globe.l
CHAPTER vi.
THE REMEDY

THE hEMi.p1s
The foundation of all industry is the
earth. Without the earth to use no in
dustry can be conducted. Ii man is
prevented from using the resources
which nature offers as free gift to ier
children, then he must starve.
Knowing this, spectators get title to
large tracts OF land. hold it at an eX-
horbitant price. and prevent people
from using it until their price is paid.
This excessive price of land and
ground rents almost wholly accounts for
the great periodical business depressions
that have cursed our country and the
civilized world.
If land speculation were imposSible;
if no man cared to own land that he did
not use, labor then could always obtain
land on which to produce its own sup
port. Every man at work Sets other
men at work to produce the things he
needs. and for which he is willing to
exchange his own products.
Every man thrown out of work helps
to throw other men out of work and to
BRING on industrial depression.
Land being the only vital necessity of
man that he may live and prosper and
grow rich, it follows that the only way
that masses of men can be made poor is
by forcing them to pay tribute to land
monopolistS or 60 far away to poorer
land.
Everybody knows that any piece Of
Land rises IN value just in proportion to
the number of people who want it to
use. Hence the scramble to get land in
growing town or city, in order that
