During tho last three years, says The
Medical and Surgical Reporter of Phil
adelphia, nearly one -fiftieth of all
deaths among physicians have been by
suicide This is u conservative estimate,
rs many instances of death are attribut,
ed to accidental uverdosing, as the tend
ency Is always to hush up suicide
whenever possible. But without includ.
ing such cases the fact remains that
the medical profession is more prone to
suicide than any other. These statistics
may be explained by the development
of morbid faneies in the mind of doe
tor on account of his constant nssocia.

Poisoning is faverite method, but
it does not appear from statistics that
the cyanides or morphine have the pref.

Suicide is largely matter of insane

and have contemplated suicide II "A

Mr.. James T.. Brodhead, of Flem-
ington, has Just returned from hunt
ing trip in Maine, where he shot a
moose which would weigh 1900 to 1900
pounds, the head of which he had sent
to a taxidermist to have mounted. and
he also had a good quantity Of the best
part of his majesty packed in the hide,
and checked with him, that he had in
tended to bring to his friends at home,
when, unfortunately, at one of the
stations where he should shown his
permit TO bring it ont of State he for
got to do so, and on reaching the next
stopping place found that the moose
meat was not on the train, and on in
quiring found that it had been seized
by the Game Warden, and Fleming
ton epicures will probably have to
await Mr.. Brodhead's next trip to the
wilds of Maine before they may be
able to dine off of moose tenderloin. -

The man who takes his job work out

The meteorological Department of
the New York Bureau of Health,
which has been investigating diph-
liberia for some time, has mt last sub
mitted report, which is thus summar-
lied by the Ucraid: "The power
to transmit the infection of diphtheria,
it is found, fingers sometimes for AS
many rs twelve days, and occasionally
three or four weeks, in patients who
have made an apparently perfect re-
covery from this most deadly disease.
In other words, the infection may have
lost its pathogenic power in person
who has suffered from it, while others
who have not been inoculated with
the poison may be liable to take 1t
from the convalescent. In this view
of diphtheria new duty devolves on
teachers i'll all schools, specially in the
public school. 1t is not enough to
prevent scholar who has had diph-
liberia from mingling with the other
pupils during the period of incubation
and convalescence The spread OF
the disease, it seems, can only be
checked by keeping diphtheria
patient from the school until bacter
Illogical examination shows that he
no longer carries the germs of the
disease. This may work hardship to
some pupils, but it is better for a few
to bear with considerable detention
from school than to endanger the lives
of their fellow scholars. "
