 CeSSSuI Careers,

Bisbee is extremely fortunnte Tn
 having a strong and efficient medical
 fraternity. Nowhere in the territory are to be found SO excellently equipped
 physicians who have undergone a
 more. rigorous training in the leading
 medical schools in the United States
 preparatory to launching upon the pro-
 fession that certainly is second to none in its importance 10 all the world. None can fully realize what we owe to the
 medical profession until in the time Of
 need we cannot live without it and to
 those who who have had this necessity emphatically and unmistakably brought
 home to them the old saying that
 ''health is wealth" presents itself as new and realistic truth. Our great mining camp is fortunate in having a
 fine and we'll equipped hospital under the supervision of corps of physicians who are unexcelled which at all times has added to the great comfort of the vast army of employees who have from time to time been employed.
