| Discussion general.
The several papers presented and
read were not only instructive, but
indicated that considerable time and
study had been spent on their prep
aration. Each paper was ably dis
cussed by those. present, and the
meeting considered by all as one OF
the best in all respects that has ever
been held since the organization OF
the society
At eight o'clock p. m. the meeting
adjourned to the Worthington hotel
and sat down to banquet, the menu
of which would make an epicure's
mouth water.
The menu was neatly printed on
heavy card board, placed at each
cover, and on each rested small
boutonniere of pansies, tied with
white ribbon.
7 he table decorations were beauti'
fully arranged, and could not be ex'
celled in the twin cities. There was
an exquisite center piece of white
linnen which was literally powdered
over with wood violets, SO natural
that one could easily be pardoned fo'
trying to pick them up. In the center
of this was mound of pansies, in
deed every available space on the
table had tiny punches of the purple
beauties, in difference to the ''thought
supposed to be gathered there. Under
all the dishes and scattered in pro
fusion on the table, were doilies with
roses, daisies and various other flow
ers embroidered on them.
Together let Us beat this ample field.
TrY why the open, what the covert yield.
And do as adversaries do in law;
Strive nightly, but eat and drink as 1riends
Iced Bouillon.
Olives. Gherking.
Deviled Shrimp. Sauce Tartare
Lettuce Sandwiches.
Fillet of Beef. French Peas
Roman Punch.
Spring Chicken. Potato Croquetts
Salad of String Beans.
Waters. Cheese
Coffee.
Justice having been done the above
in a deliberate and careful manner
the doctors returned to their place O.
meeting, and passed the time il
"reminiscences, both grave and anus
ing, until departure of trains woule
allow them to return to their severa
homes, and shortly after midnigh
Worthington resumed her usual Sc
renity, having survived the presence
of so many medicos, without damag'
being done to anything, except
glass of lemonade.
| Worthington was chosen as tn
place of the next meeting OF the so
ciety, in January next.
