What is important and seeming
ly requisite is that the status of
government physicians should be
settled once for all. There ought
to be no serious difficulty in the
way, once a few broad general
principles are laid down as
foundation. Ia the first place, it
being conceded that the poor and
lowly are to have attendance, from
publicly salaried physicians, it
should be adequate and under
reasonable limitations always
available. Whomever it is the
duty of government physician to
treat in accident or illness ought
to have the benefit of such physi-
clans best skill for saving his life
or restoring him to health. The
only debatable question should be
whether the subject is entitled to
be the beneficiary of either the
public charity or the provision
due by employers to employed.
That is a matter of fact to be east
ly settled. Matters of compensa-
ton for extraordinary skilled
service are what require to be
decided by definite rules and re-
gulations. Whatever terms may
be thus prescribed every govern
ment physician upon accepting
his commission would agree to
with eyes open, 80 that there
would be no ground of future con-
troversy on their part with a
plantation, or on the part of the
latter with the government, or ON
that of any two of the parties with
the third. To obtain and to re-
tain competent talent, it stands to
reason, the government would
have to be fairly liberal on its
own behalf, besides reasonably
firm in requiring concessions
from employers of labor obliged
to have medical attendance there
for. Districts, owing to changing
conditions in them, will need to
have their boundaries revised
from time to time, 80 that the

Timely Topics

We have an immense con-
Signment Of new goods on the
way which will make quite a
sensation when we expose them
tor sale. In the meantime, we
desire to call your attention to
a few little articles which are
indispensable in all well-re-
gulated households.
The GEN Ice SHAVER is
Just what you want. After
you have used it once you
will realize how much ice you
might have saved in the days
gone by, not including the
wear and tear of your temper.
The Gem Ice Shaver is handy,
cheap, economical and labor
! saving. Get one.
i FISH SCALERS. - Many
housekeepers object to pre-
pairing fish for the table, be-
cause of the bother of scaling
them. We have a handy little
instrument for the purpose
which does the work quickly
without scattering the scales
all over the house. They are
cheap. Get one.
FRENCH SLICERS - These
are light carverS, sharp and
flexible as Chinese razorS, just
the thing for choice undercuts
and tenderloin steaks. We
have them in several styles.
CARVERS-We have them
in sets, all styles, ivory, bone,
wood and metal handles at
prices ranging from 81 to SIS.
BREAD KNIVES-All kinds
in ivory, Woodor metal handles,

Coming back to the matter of
public hospitals heretofore al
luded to, there is the question
of surgical operations liable
to arise, as hte same thing
has just done in the conduct of
the Queens Hospital at Honolulu.
Probably it has also come up in
the practise of government physi-
cians where there is no hospital.
There is only a slight difference
in kind between this question as
it concerns government ply sicians
and as it does the semi-public
hospital here. The grievance of
the rural faculty is that it should
be expected to perform operations
as part of its salaried routine,
while it is that of the Queens
Hospital Trust that patients hay
ing means for emp Dying surgical
skill outside should resort to the
hospital to secure the special ser.
vice practically for nothing. 1t is
not proposed here, however, to
discuss this question of operations
in itself. 1t would be appropri-
ate to a consideration of the feast
bility Of establishing a free gen
eral hospital at Honolulu.

Questions relating to the duties
Of government physicians occa.
sionally harass the Board of
Beaith. Where the line is to be
legitimstely drawn between SER
vices to native Hawaiians in in
digent circumstances, who cannot
paw the regulation fees, and those
who are above the necessity of
public charity in this regard,
m IL kes one of the difficulties.
Another Of cognate character re.
lates to the claims, both as to time
and attention, which the poor
have a right to make upon the
government physician who has a
private practise having at least
equal claims upon him. In this
matter of medical attendance for
tre poor, the Hawaiian Govern
IN Mt has always, it may be said,
been paternal in degree above
thlt of most other civilized coun-
tries.
