pected to respond to II boxes on the run

BRITISH MEDICAL FOR
TUNES.
FOR
n Few Physicians are Rich, but Almost
all Die Poor.
(From the Lancet }


The large fortune left by sir william
Jenner has led to much writing in TIE
lay press but owing to imperfect informs-
ton as to the source of some of Sir Will
liam Jenner's wealth much exrelIent
moralizing has been made upon nd
deductions. Sir William Jenner was for
many years at the top OF the medical pro-
fession, having risen there by his genius,
and having been maintained there by
scientific reclamation every whit as much
as by popular favor. During these years
he undoubtedly made very large income
but not an income that would have en-
abled him to save such sum as g575, 000
and, as matter of fact, a certain portion
of his fortune was derived from trade and
bequeathed to him by a brother. But I'M
doubleday Sir William Jenner earned a
great sum of money by the practice of his
profession and the fact may legitimately
act as a stimulus to young medical men
to observe keeniy and work hard.
That a few medical men have made
large fortunes is well known. For in
stance. Sir Andrew Clark left f203 970,
Sir Oscar Clnyton left GIG 746. DIR.

and Dr. J. II. Paul left 9100,052. But
all these fortunes several OF which were
certainly inherited and not madc by pro-
fessional practice, are thrown into the
shade by the estate of Sir William Gull,
whose personality was valued at 2544, 023

MIsCEIL4ANEOUo.
BEARDED
WOMEN.

Designing men, through alluriug and cum
ningly worded advertisements, constantly
endeavor to work upon the feelings OF sick
and ailing women by inviting them 'tow write
to s0oman CD and secure pomdns sym
pathy." 1t Is well to remember that the
best sympathy is to be had at home and not
from strangers, perhaps hundreds OF miles
distant The object of the sick is to get well,
and however precious sympathy may be, 1t
never vet cured seriously afflicted woman.
While the sympathy of your milliner or
dressmaker might be appreciated and be
just as beneficial. If not more SO, than sym
patty from a stranger yet II can not effect
your cure If you are an ailing woman.
1t is loudly proclaimed through the press
that "a woman can best understand a
womau's ailments, " and on this ground sick
women are invited to write to woman /"
and get the benefit of woman's advice
The sort of understanding of her ailments
wanted by sick woman is a trained medi-
cal understanding. If a woman has this
trained medical knowledge she understands
wornan's ailments not as a zDomdr, but as a
bhysician If she Is not doctor she cannot
understand the ailments at all, and cannot
treat them successfully, because she lacks
the necessary training
As far a. known, there is no regularly
qualified woman physician connected with
any proprietary medicine especially de-
signed for women-no one, therefore quail
fed by learning and experience, to advise
on questions of disease and its cure.
1t is certain that there is no one, man or
woman, connected with any put up ="
medicine for women, excepting only Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, who, like
DIR. Pierce. is a regular graduated and quail
fed physician, and who has, like him, de.
voted more than thirty years to the special
study and treatment of diseases of women.
For more than thirty years DR.. r. v.
been chief consulting physician of the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of
Buffalo, N Y On his staff are nearly a
score Of regularly graduated, experienced,
skilled physicians, each of whom is spec
ialist in his chosen class of diseases. Ev-
ery letter addressed to DR. Pierce as above,
has prompt, conscientious attention, is re-
garded as sacredly confidential and is an
swered in plain envelope SO your private
affairs are kept safe from prying eyes.

1t to be known through interviews in the

there unless ne could have certain troops
which he specified. 1t was generally
alleged at that time, and not denied that
he resoIted to this expedient to bring
pressure to bear on the Secretary of War.
Apparently he did not have SO much
confidence in him then as he expressed in
his speech of Tuesday night.

The opponents of the denomination of
Bryan In the Democratic party ara evil
IDENTIFY losing their courage. One by one
Democrats who would naturally oppose
him on account of their currency con-
victions are reluctantly admitting that
the tide seems TO be setting strongly in
his favor. At one time Harrison of
Chicago was looked upon as candidate
around whom the opposition to Bryan
might rally, but he has given in bis add
hesion to the Nebraska statesman.
Cookers prominence in bthe opposition
movement has prejudioed it greatly every
where except possibly in New York City.
Even Pulitzer, of the New York World,
who has no fondness for Bryan or his
silver doctrine. is forced TO concede that
it looks like the old ticket, so far as its
head is concerned. The rank and file of
the party, not only in the West but also
in the East, are for Bryan. OF course
things may change before the convention,
but II it were to be held now Bryan would
be nominated without much opposition.
II Mr. Edward Atkinson sent his
pamphlets to the soldiers in ths Philip
pines he undoubtedly exposed himself
to Just criticism. These pamphlets are
arguments against the governments
policy in those islands, and the design Of
them is to produce in this minds of their
readers opposition to 1t. 1t seems to us
there would be no improperly, much
less eriminality, in sending them to every
and child 0ntlida nf the
army. The policy adopted or to be adopt
ed toward the Philippines is proper
subject for discussion, and everybody has
right to speak or write in regard
to 1t. But with the soldiers 1T
rs different. Their first duty, indeed
their only duty, is obedience to their su-
periors. Whether the policy they are or
dered to carry out is wise or otherwise, is
not for them to ask or discuss. If anyone
attempts to teach them doctrines or pre-
sent to them arguments that will tend to
weaken their obedience he Is guilty, in
directly, at least, Of trying to induce
them to refuse to do their duty in
IA soldier is mutinous. If Mr.. Atkinson's
pamphlets had the effect to prejudice the
soldiers against the work they were un-
der obligations to do because they were
ordered to do 1t by their supsriors, IL had
a tendency to weaken the performance
of their duty and as they undoubtedly
had that tendency, the putting them
into the hands OF soldiers was culpable.
Dir. Atkinson. however, contends that
the only soldiers he ever sent any to were
