THE HERoIsM OF PHYSICIANS.
cOndItIOns Of Which the WorId

Conditions of Which the World
Knows Comparatively Little.
1t may be truly said hat no class
of men risk death 80 frequently or so
freely, and there is no gainsaying that
the motives which impel them are of
the highest and most unselfsh sort.
For they not only dare, in the cause
of humanity, such swift and fatal
torture as marked this case, but more
terrible to contemplate, they unhesi-
tatingly lay themselves open to long
years of hopeless and helpless suffer
ing.
For the most part, the world knows
little of this. The common tendency
is TO think of doctors as immune
against these ailments and Affections
which they must so often come in
contact. The popular mind ~conceives
them as charmed beings, forgetting
for the while that suffering and death
are no respecters of persons, and as
a natural consequence, the thought of
heroism is seldom coupled with that
of healing.
Other men who are Independent in
business can select their W times
for coming and going. The doctor
canIot. They can cater to the class
G. trade they desire. The doctor a n
not. They can, when they will, de-
cline to dispense their wares and their
services. The doctor cannot. How
ever heavily the days toll has weigh
ed upon them, the evening and night
are theirs for recreation or rest. The
doctors are not.
Beyond certain limits of special
practice, which any emergency can
shatter, he has neither choice of what
or with whom he shall deal, and
under any circumstances he can never
call n hour, night or day, his OWE.
His is a heroism of constant service
not the kind that does n faring
deed which makes men stare and
shout and then repose peacefully on
beds of l~aurels, but the kind that is
never wanting in the moment Of
need; the kind that is content to walk
in the by-ways as well as the high
ways of life; the kind that knows no
distinction between rich and poor,
humble and proud; the kind that
means comfort and relief to the body
burning with fever, and, at the same
time, to the watching heart nearby,
burning with the anxiety of love.
True heroism-all the more so be-
cause it seldom has the encourage
ment of deserved praise-is the rule
among physicians.

Col. Henry Watterson tells with
gusto of the eccentricities Of a quaint
character in Frankfort, KY, named
Ezekiel Hopkins.
Zeke once gained the admiration of
his fellow-townsmen by saving the
lives of many e-xcursionists on a train
coming into Franfort. There had been
a washout resulting in a spreading of
the rails. zeke, discovering the dan
ger, tagged the train in time to pre-
vent a disaster.
Some weeks thereafter a commit
tee of Frankfort citizens called upon
Zeke for the purpose of presenting
to him, as a testimonial of regard and
esteem, a gold watch that had been
purchased by the contributions of the
townspeople. The head of the com
mittee, with a grave bow, approached
Zeke and said:
"Mr. Hopkins, it is the desire -
the good people Of Frankfort that you
shall, in recognition of your valor and
merit, be presented with this watch,
which, they trust, will ever remind
you of their undying friendship
Without the least emotion. Zeke
elected from his mouth a long stream
of tobacco juice, took the watch from
its handsome case, turned it over in
his wrinkled hand and finally asked
with the utmost naivete.

DANGER TO RURAL DISTRICTS.

Cerebro-Spinal Meningitis Most Fatal
in Country.
a careful study of the epidemic dis
tribution of cerebro-spinal meningitis
might also show that it's incidence is
relatively heavier in small villages
and rural districts. Some authors be-
lieve so. Pfeiffer says it is "a dis
ease of winter, children and soldiers"
During the American civil wal the
armies on both sides suffered repeat
eddy and severely from cerebro-spin-
al meningitis, and the history of it's
appearance and spread in France be-
tween 1887 and 1912, and in Algiers
in 1910, is almost a chronicle of the
movements of troops. The suscepti-
bility of soldiers would seem to indi-
cate that the conditions of city life
are not especially favorable to the
spread of cerebro-spinal meningitis. If
it is, as seems likely, more prevalent
under rural conditions, one more is
added to the reasons already urgent
upon municipal authorities to demand
exact accounting for current mortali-
ty and thoroughgoing sanitary gov
eminent in small communities and
rural districts. Time was when great
cities constantly menaced the health
of the surrounding country, but now
adays it is the other way about. The
United States census reports show
for the registration states a rural
mortality slightly less than that Of
the cities. The difference is so small
that equal efficiency of registration
would give the lead to rural districts.
The testimony of the census is,
however, open to serious question,
for the census reports place the apex
of the seasonal curve in June and
July, which means that this part of
the mortality account includes much
beside cerebro-spinal fever.
The stir about the disease is live
Hest in New York, whose great pop
ulation will yield impressive figures.
1t seems probable hat the smaller
populations, living in n|eighboring
towns and villages and in the rural
districts, are suffering a higher rela-
tive mortality, and that, too, under
conditions in some respects more IA
vorable for the solution of its mys-
teries than the experience of greater

Mrs. Van scoy Experiences Dangerous
Auer-Enects from Grip and Learns
value of a Blood Remedy.
The grip leaves behind it weakened
vital powers, thin blood, impaired di-
gestion and over-sensitive nerves-a
condition that makes the system an easy
prey to pneumonia, bronchitis, rheuma-
tism, nervous p~rostration, and even con-
sumption.
The story told by scores of victims Of
the grip is substantially the same. One
was tortured by terrible pains at the
base of the skull; another was left tired
faint and in every way wretched from
anpmia or scantiness of blood; another
had horrible headaches, was nervous and
couldn't sleep; another was left with
weak lungs, difficulty in breathing and
acute neuralgia. In every case relief
was sought in vain until the great blood
builder and nerve-tonic, DR.. Williams
Pink Pills, was used. For %quickness and
thoroughness Of action nothing is known
that will approach it.
Mrs. Van Scoy makes a statement that
supports this claim. She says:

1 had to give up completely and for
three weeks 1 was obliged to keep my

threaten my heart and thoroughly

While 1 was suffering in this way I

pressed me and led me to buy box. These

the time I had finished the first box.

Chinese residents of st. Louis will
soon have a fellow countryman to
fight their legal battles for them. Jeu
Tom, who has lived in this country for
t~wenty-four years, has appealed for
admission to the bar, says a St. Louis
special to the New York World. He
came to America when he was IA
years old and at the age of 20 re-
turned to China to marry the girl
whom his parents had selected for
him. He returned to America and
four years ago again visited his native
country, this time to attend the fun
eral of his mother, but again he re-
turned to America,
Jeu Tom is interested in the firm of
Quong-HOng-Chong company, a Chin
csc grocery. He is a shrewd business
man and speaks English huently.
In talking of his ambitions he said:
Il am DESTROYS of being admitted to
the bar because l like the profession,
and l believe that l can do greater
good for ny countrymen as a lawyer
than I can in any other capacity.
Il want to be admitted to the bar
also so as to gain the support of the
right and liberal minded citizens and
go to Washington and appeal TO the
minister from China to the United
States to urge for a modification of
the exclusion act.
Il will always live in America,
though I will visit China from time to
time. 1 think that there will be great
Improvement and progress made in
China during the neXt ten years. In
that time l hope to see some of the
American inventions and energy and
business ability take root in that
country. I think that there will be
lots of Americans flock to China.
Then, when the great resources of
China are being developed, there will
be on need of Chinese laborers coming
to America, as they can find employ
men at home. and they will be con
tent to remain in their country"

as my salary was small, l used to buy
many books at auction. One day l

call came at 3 a. m, and l shouldered
my package and went up the dark

up and ordered me in tones l did not

the dark ~alley-way with my large
