THE TIME DRAWS NEAR
When Those Predicting Medicine
Should Register With State Board.
Law Passed Last Winter Gives the Doctors
Until January list.

All those who wish TO practice medicine
are called upon to register with the secre-
tary of the State board of medical reais-
tration between August 6 Of this year
and January /, 1896, or else undergo,
and satisfactorily pass examinations sub
mitted by the board.
The registration Is limited to those who
have bona fide certificates, or diplomas,
from regularly chartered medical colleges.
and those who, r'three years previous to
last August 9th, have been practicing, as
regular physicians.
Dr. X. j. Martin of Augusta, said, Thurs
day, to journal reporter: Although
much more than half of the time for
registration has elapsed but few, com
paratively speaking, have registered, and
of these few, many are Of those who have
been practicing for three years, but who
can show no certificate or diploma from
any of the chartered colleges. Of the
regular practitioners few have registered,
probably from inadvertence or negligence,
as from their security of position, they
feel no constraint to be in early, and
avoid the rush.
I'm all there are at least 1000 and
probably from 1900 to 1900 doctors now
practicing in the State; of these only
about 200 have, as yet, registered Should
anyone wish to practice after January LIST,
who shall not have registered properly
within the time appointed, he must
according to the law, be subjected by the
oral and written These examinations
will be held in January.
After next January, every one wish
ing to pursue the profession in Maine,
must pass the examinations submitted
by the board whether he has a certificate
from chartered medical college or not.
And, the fact of ones not having any
such diploma will not, in itself, deter
him from entering. The law of this State
is practically the same as that adopted in
nearly every other state
"The aim of this law, rs is obvious is
to keep out those who have no qualifica-
tions TO the profession
The possibility of some of our eminent
physicians being submitted to examina-
lions along with a lot of parvenus is
rather amusing to consider, but any past
record will avail them nothing, and they
will have fallen to the degree ordinary,
and be summoned to the dough dish.
The board is composed of the following:

dent; DIR. A. X. 2 Mcserve, Portland,

A LOSS OF $50. 600. oOOtI!

'Labor-saving inventions or discoveries have
often heen violently opposed on the ground
that they take workingmen's bread out of
their mouths. Although experience has
shown the fallacy OF that theory the feeling,
or fear, was natural.
But 1t is not so much the lack o: work as
the inability to work that causes poverty and
suHerlng. In England and Wales every work
lngman averages ten cays of sickness every
year. with total loss of wages for all of about
sS'uoJ.ooo per year. In this country the loss
Is much greater. In all countries the prevail

other ailments resulting from impure blood:
