CULLED FROM THE EXCHANGES
ADVERTISING DOCTORS.

ADVERTISING DOCTORS.
Last evening vas held the annual
meeting of the Minnehaha County
Medical Association. \ full list of of.
ficers were elected. The doctors had u
warm time discussing the ethics of the
profession and particularly the rule
which forbids Il regular practitioner to
advertise. Those present were especially
strenuous against advertising by
physicians and insisted that all who
did SO were 'quacks." The Argus
Leader would be highly pleased to
print the ans of the esteemed gentle
men who We're elected president, vice
president and secretary of theassociat-
ion. We should he glad to let the peo-
pie of the city and county know who
are regarded by their profession rs the
leading physicians of the city. But to
do so would he advertising them,
probably it would help them i'm their
business. would bring them new pat
tents. And to do that would be to
violate the ethics of the profession and
would presumably deeply wound the
feelings o! the gentlemen named. We
desire to apolgioHe to them for our
thonghtlessness in the past. We have
for years freely spoken of these gentle
mem. of their various conspicuous cases,
of their being called in consultations
10th in the city and elsewhere. No
Doubt this has largely benefited these
- M',"incn financially. Doubtless
scores of people have been led to sum-
ion them III acconnt of some item in
| print which attracted attention. We
r,a:!y supposed at the time that this
publication was IL courtesy to the
physicians and some of them have even
gone so far as to express appreciation
oil it. But we judge from the remarks
made last evening that our intended
courtesy WAS IL mortal offence. The
discussions were highly interesting and
the Argus Leader would have been
glad to quote the speakers. But it
would not for anything cause these
gentlemen annoyance 10y advertising
them. Consequently it must leave
them in nameless obscurity wrapped
about with their shadowy ethical pail.

seems plain to me that no one is to
blame in the matter except the mem-
bers of the state legislature selected
by your people to look after your in
terests. These members must have
known that the stock interests on the

tainly should have made provision for
such protection. There is no doubt
in my mind but what it would take
$1,000 to v expenses throughout the
year if l should answer all calls that
are sent me, and then l should certain.

to reimburse me, which is surrounded
with too much doubt and uncertainty

the cause of the advance in the price
of wheat might do we'll to inquire of
him about the advance of wool. He
says the advance in wheat was due to
a shortage abroad. There is no record
of amy considerable shortage abroad in
wool. yet prices of wool have advanced
sixty per cent since the beginning of

twenty per cent. in the same time.

Riding to Hounds After the Nimble Brueez
In Australia.
Thc,e are two ways of hunting kanga-
roos in Australia-onc followed by na.
tive hunters and the other by White
men. The natives surround Il herd Of
the animals, narrow the circle and then.
when the kangaroos dash at them III
wild efforts to escape, kill them with
short spears and cluls, commonly called
waddies. 1t is lively work for the native.
The Kangaroo uses its hind legs viciously
and with great judgment, and dogs,
horses and men lave Econ torn omen by
the nails OF it's hind feet.
The white men prefer to follow the
k;;ns;rocs With dogs. Every herd of
kangaroos has a leader, known us the
old man, or boomer, which warns it's
followers Of the approach of danger by
stamping the ground With it's hind foot,
making Il booming sound that starts all
the khllgaroos in hearing on Il run. A
scared herd will run 20 or 30 miles at
times, or until it reaches safety. a
male weighs from 100 to 175 pounds
and is : cr S feet long. Tho Englisl,

the Kangaroo with dogs somewhat like
%foNhculids, hut of greater size and
strengths. Women and men join i'll the
sport, riding to the hounds on good
horses.
