Charles Broadway Rouss, the mill

DR.. Frank Van Fleet, chairman of the
committee of legislation of the New
York County Medical society and
lecturer on diseases of the eye at the
Post Graduate college, when requested
for an interview, took advantage of
the occasion to deal DR.. Norman and
his kind, few sledge-hammer blows.

Rouss is afflicted with atrophy of the

case, a cure is simply impossible.

Never did life open so fairly. Lord
RIVERS had taken his beautiful young
wife direct to Paris: he knew that ev-

her-hotel life, perhaps, the greatest of
all. He had taken her at once to Meu-

ished as he had expected her to be-
On the morning after their arrival
he asked her what she would like best

interest, cathedrals, grand old shrines

CHAPTER XIII

Some months had passed since the
marriage in the little church at St.
Byno's, and the young lord was, if pos
sible, more in love with his wife than
ever. She had grown more beautiful,
because the character of her beauty
was more refined. Lord RIVERS him
self was one OF the most refined of
, men. Constant association with him
had given grace and courtesy to her
manner that nothing else could have
given. When Lord RIVERS had first
met Violet at st. Byno's she had been
quick and clever in an extraordinary
degree. but her education had been a
| simple one. Since that time she had
read great deal, and Lord RIVERS had
been most careful in his selection of
books for her.
You must read what every one else
reads" he said to her one day. $50
many quotations from ana illusions to
favorite books are made in society.
that one must be pretty well educated
and we'll read even to follow the con :.
versation."
Il like reading Violet said, laugh
ing; but why do you prepare me as
though it would be my fate to mix with
so many clever people?"
1T will be your fate at some future
time he replied.
DO you consider all artists clever?"
she asked quickly.
They should be-" he answered. cor
they will make very poor artists"
Lord RIVERS was very proud of his
young wife. He had not dared pur-
chase such a wardrobe as he desired
Tor her, fearing that by so doing her
suspicious would be excited, but he had
insisted on her wearing beautiful
dresses; and. although she had cried
out against the extravaganza. she was
pleased with his purchases, and en-
Joyed wearing her exquisite costumes.

out. he had looked at her with most

head to the little shapely foot.

band.

there, why we may soon be able to re-
tore some of our late-lameuted buried
ones to life. You say that DR.. Norman
claims to have made Mr.. Rouss see
his own hand. l have had men totally
blind in my office who imagined they
could see their uplifted hand, but they
could see no one else's. 1t was purely
matter of imagination. There are
cases of blindness caused by some pc
culiar, and to us inexplicable, hysteri-
cal state. A shock is liable to effect
a cure in such case. 1t is impossible
that DR.. Norman imagines Mr.. Rouss
to be afflicted with blindness of this
character and hopes to effect cure by
his occult or hypnotic method. But
where the optic nerve fibres have
wasted away no human hand or brain
can devise restoration of the part.
If Norman is p quaclx, should the
public be protected from him and his
kind? | say it certainly should. and
there are laws ON our statute books
which make it possible. But the public
is not quite prepared for this general
prosecution. 1t still imagines that
medical laws are formed for the pro-
tecton of he medical fraternity. We
have no laws to protect cobblers, tai
Tors, grocers or any other class of
tradesmen, then why should we have
laws to protect doctors? The laws deal
with the public health, and 1t is the
public that needs this protection, not
the doctors. 1t is strange thing that
we OF New York state should imagine
graduate of the University of Penn
sylvania, one of the best medical
schools in the country. to pass an ex-
animation before permitting him to
practice here. and yet an oceulist from
India can come here and without
molestation treat so delicate a part of
the human system as the eye. In my
opinion the states of this great nation
should all legislative on the subject in
such way that ii would be the duty Of
he district attorneys to ferret out and
prosecute these cases. At present in
his city the County Medical society
pays an attorney $1,000 year to secure
evidence and TO push cases through the
courts, All the expenses Of the prose
'ution are borne by the medical society
and still it is a matter of the greatest
Importance that the public health
should be safe-guarded by its own
officials. In my opinion there should

| number of students who would ma
circulate at the medical colleges. But
this is not true, for the number, in
stead of diminishing, is steadily in
cTeasing, and the students of today
are better qualified to take up this
most important calling than ever be-
fore. The idea was, and is, to protect
the public from incompetent and dis
honest practitioners.
THE competent medical man needs
no laws for his protection; if he is
competent, that in itself is his protec-
ton and the greater the number of
incompetent competitors, and the more
incompetent they are, the greater will
be the contrast between himself and
them, and the larger will be the fees
he can command. There is very little
doubt that medical laws, by raising the
standard of medicine, have increased
the competition between equally quail
fed men and have reduced the size of
medical fees. That medical laws entail
hardships to quacks and incompetents
OF all sorts is true, and that they pro-
teet the public by so doing is also
true; but they do not increase
the fees of medical men, and they
never will. 1t may be said without
fear of successful contradiction that
medical laws are made for the sole
purpose of benefiting the public and
protecting it against quacks and char
latans. and that is the only just reason
why such laws should be on the statute
books"

be an assistant district attorney in
charge of this subject, and prosecu-
tons would then become gradually
recognized as really in the interest of
the public and not in the interest Of
doctors.
''The great body of physicians Of
this country have one object always in
view, which carries with it the effort
to protect the public, and that is the
elevation of the profession.
''One of the objections made to the
raising of the standard of medicine is
that the whole thing savors of trade
unionism, and that medical men al
ready possessing the right to practice
desire to exclude competitors, the ad-
vocates of this plea believing that more
rigid requirements would lessen the

Meanwhile, the happy bride and
bridegroom had left care ard trouble
behind. The day was glorious, the
bride beautiful and we'll content, If
not in raptures, the bridegroom beside
himself with delight. He was so
deeply so uttrely in love himself that
he did not observe any deficiency in
her.
That she was delighted, smiled at all
she saw, enjoyed everything with such
sweet simplicity, seemed enough to
him. A man who is dazzled by the
light Of the sun does not see the faint
light of star. He was so dazed with
his own love, 80 mighty, so pure, and
true" that he did see any deficiency
in hers.
He thought himself the most fortu-
nate man in the world that he had
won so fair and innocent bride. He
knew that in his sphere the rule was
to marry for money, rank, or position,
but seldom for love. He remembered
how often he had laughed at barefaced
his laughter had been mingled con-
tempt. He had seen some of the fair
est girls in England led to the altar
by men who we're not worthy to touch
even the hem of their garments; yet,
their vices and sins being well gilded,
no one ever resented them. He re-
membered this, and congratulated him
self that his marriage would be one
OF thousand; he was married for
himself, for love; married to one who
not only was ignorant of his claim to
birth and fortune, but actually detested
both, and would not knowingly have
married him had she known who he
really was, for the teachings of Miss
Anterior had sunk deeply into the
heart and mind OF her niece.

He was young, and the world lay

of the day in which she would learn

had such deception practiced upon her.
He did not look beyond the happy pres
ent, this beautiful wedding morn, the
honeymoon that was never to end, with
the never-ceasing melody of its sweet
love story
He was too young to anticipate
trouble; and ne began his married life
as blithely as II he had not had the

appalled,. He said to himself that he
lore he told her his secret he must
bind her heart to his so closely, so
tightly, that nothing could ever detach
it-so firmly that her predudices would
all die in the light of her love.
That evening, as they sat in one OF
ne beautiful saloons that look over the
gardens Of the Tuileries, Violet sang
20 him, and this was the song she
hose:
| wonder where we two shall meet,
l wonder if old love still lives,
II years must pass er one forgets,
If years must pass ere one forgives;
If fate will lead our footsteps on
Until the waiting hours be past
When truth shall lend her golden light
And heart shall beat for heart at
last
Sometimes, sometimes thus l wonder,
Love- cannot tell you why.
Once we loved long ago;
That may be the reason
Love must waken by and by.
Il wonder where your life is passed,
Or If in sun or If in shade,
II time has flown on silver wing,
Or brought the flowers that bloom
and fade;
If you, like me, can still hope on,
Believing we shall live again,
Forgetting all the parted years,
When pain was bliss and bliss was
pain?
Sometimes, sometimes thus l wonder,
Love- cannot tell you why.
Once we loved long ago;
That may be the reason
Love must waken by and by
"A sweet song and sad song" said
Lord RIVERS, mot song that suits
me. Come here, Violet"
Here" meant to the balcony, from
which they could see the grand old pal
ace where kings and queens reigned,
and suffered and enjoyed, the grand
old trees that stood serene and calm,
although the kings that had once adj
mired them had died in exile, and the
queens who had loitered under their
shade had laid their heads on the
block.
The moon was shining bright as day.

sionately, "of happy love.-love per-
fected as is ours?"

yesterday that love is made perfect by
suffering. If that be true, our love,
Randolph, is far from being perfect
yet"
IF that be true, may it never be per-

have love than win it through suffer-
ing"
In after years the words came back
to him and to her,-to her, in the
brightness of daylight and in the 81
lence of night.
