appliances for certain ailments and
keeps open Office in the opera house
during the day for consultation and ad-
vice, giving the use OF the electrical ap-

license before practicing. This, James
appears by the trial not to have. The

fendaut gave notice Of appeal and the
end may not be yet. This is the first
case Of the kind we have heard of and is

fession Of the state desire to see the law
enforced against "quacks."
