It created some little astonisnment'
therefore, when one day at the Doaro-
ing house table Duncan SAID 10 those
about him:
"I hear that you fellows are organ
izing some sort of club for sOciai pur'
poses. Why haven't you given me
chance to joinT

such things. You never 60 OUT you

"W'ell, may l chip in with the rest!
Seeing glad assent In every counte-
nance, he held out his hand Tor the
subscription paper and put down MS
name for just double the largest SUD-
scription OH it. Then, passing 1t back,
he said:
II think may be able to secure some
support for so good an undertaking
from the business men OF the city and
from otliers-the lawyers, doctors and
the like"
He did what he could, and what he
could was much. The solid men, when
he brought the subject to their atten-
ton. felt that this was IN extension
of that work of Duncan's for the bet
torment Of the town, which they so
heartily approved. They subscribed
freely to the expense, and, better still,
they lent personal countenance to the
entertainments.
Guilford Duncan also attended one OF
the entertainments, though 1t had been
his fixed purpose not to do so. The
reason was that Guilford Duncan was
altogether human and full blOOded
young man. From the time Of his ar
rival at Cairo until now he had not
had any association with women.
When such association came to him he
accepted it as boon without relax
ing In any degree his devotion to at.
fairs.

SHORT LIVED DOCTORS.
Diseases which Are Most Deadly to
the Medical Profession.

Diseases which Are Most Deadly to
the Medical Profession.
The diseases which claim the most
victims among physicians relatively to
all males are gout and diabetes, and
there Is q high relative mortality from
diseases Of the nervous system, circula"
tory system and kidneys, says the Sci
entific American.
From the nature of his habits the
physician is not subject to accidents,
and, though he is brought into contact
with infection to a greater extent than
other men, his preventive means are
successful and his mortality from in
lection is very low. Freedom from pro-
longed muscular strains and high blood
tension apparently saves him from
arteriosclerosis. but suicide claims
many and so do the drug habits ac-
Quired by the nervOusly exhausted. 1t
has been said that three-fourths Of
French morphine users are physicians.
The cause of the physicians early
death is evidently the excessive nerv-
ous expenditure, insufficient rest and
defective nutrition, inseparable from
his calling, with it's broken and restrict
ed sleep. irregular hours of work, rest
and meals and worry when lives de,
pend upon his judgment and the lack
Of day of complete relaxation in each
week. The physician who sees his pa
ttents every day in the week, month
after month, and cannot learn to forget
them when he goes home merely burns
the candle at both ends. He violates
the law observed by every animal, that
there shall be short periods of moder-
ate exertion interrupted by longer peri.
DDS of rest when repairs are made. 1t
Is not too much work as a rule, but
scattered work, which prevents rest.
