This meeting has not been called but it is understood that President Kava- naugh is contemplating calling 1t for some time in March.
 The meeting today was entirely pre- liminary and no official action of im- 3portance was taken. It is believed that the committee will recommend that the Season open in the Eastern portion of the League territory on April 21, and on April 2S among the clubs in the Western DOT ton. The committee discussed the num- Der of games that should compose the schedule and the advisability of increas- ing the number from 126, the number played last season. to no. It may be stated that owing to the difficulty of arranging satisfactory schedule for no games. it is not improbable that the committee will recommend the adoption of a schedule providing for 12s games

If this has been our experience, Is 1t not reasonable that your case has not been skillfully and intelligently treated? You may have every confidence in your physician, and he may be in every way a competent practitioner, but you must remember that obstinate chronic diseases are different from the many acute ail- ments which the busy physician is call ed upon to treat and they require spe- cial knowledge and skill which he does not possess. It Is, of course, no reflection on him, because his line of duty Is in an entirely different direction. Many prominent physicians recognize this truth, and they often refer patients to me who are afflicted with some chronic disease of which have made special study and understand fully.
 For more than twenty years I have treated none but chronic diseases. l have studied them thoroughly and my wide ex- perience enables me to understand per fectly any case, no matter how compli- cated.
