more the rule than otherwise for phN-
sicians to make a study and speciality
of some particular line of diseases ana
treatment In every city of import
ance there are a few thoroughly pro-
fcient physicians who make a spec
ialty of treating not alone the people
located in that particular city. but
through the mail or express treat the
people of the entire country, furnishing
them home treatment in some compact
form and who as soon as their repu-
tation becomes established, enjoy
large and constantly increasing patron
age. Oxygen has long been known as
the life giving element in air. but the
use of artidcially prepared oxygen as
a therapeutic is of recent date. The
L. s. Compound Oxygen Co, whose
main office is located al 81 Pearl street,
was started in 1885, and hogan the ad-
ministration of compound oxygen in
one small room but the demand grew
to such an extent that this space has
been increased 10 4 nicely furnished
rooms as offices, and a large chemical
laboratory at Lincoln square. The
medical actuary of the company, Y.
NJ. Simons, has demonstrated beyond
doubt that he is a practitioner of ad-
