have the worst panic ever known These
are not the views of theorists; they are not
the predictions of men who can foolishy be
charged with trying to create panic; they
are not the statements of Wall greet, nor OF

they are the soher fears of hundreds CT the

The carrier pigeon has been put to many
uses, such, for instance, as making known
the results of races and elections to people
living at distance. Butsa doctor in Scot
land has extended its utility in remark
able way. He has large and scattered
practice, and we gather from the Medical
Press and Circular that when he goes on long
rounds he carries number of pigeons with
him. If he finds that some of his patients
require medicine at once he writes out pre-
scriptions, and by means of the pigeons for
tions and dispatches the medicine. II, after
visiting patient, the doctor thinks he will
be required later in the day, he simply leaves
pigeon, which is employed to summon him

the keeping of carrier pigeons means saw
