pigeons as Doctors Assistants.

A doctor in the north of Scotland
finds carried pigeons of much use to
him He has scattering practice.
and when on long rounds he takes sew
eral pigeons with him. If one of
his patients needs medicine imme-
diately. he writes out prescription.
and by means of the birds forwards
it to his surgery. Here an assistant
gets the message, prepares the pre-
scription and dispatches the medi-
cine. If. after visiting patient the
doctor thinks he will be required later
on in the day, he simply leaves a
pigeon. with which he can be called
if necessary.

"Tipsr Given by Monarchs.

King Edward disburses a good deal
of money in tips every year. Each
visit to one of his subjects costs him
from 1000 to $4,000. At shooting
parties the gamebeaters get SIS each
and the gamekeepers s25 or $50 each.
When he goes abroad he does still
better. On the occasion of his recent
visit to the kaiser he gave away near
ly $4,000 in this way. When the czar
visited England he left behind check
for $4,000 to be distributed among
servants who attended him

a Resume of Cancer research.

William Seaman cambridge states
that cancer occurs with the same es-
sentiaI characteristics throughout the
vertebrate creation. There is a va
riety of conflicting evidence in refer
ence TO the influence of diet on the de-
velopment of cancer. However, cancer
is comparatively rare in hot countries,
especially in those whose inhabitants
subsist largely on vegetable diet. With
certain exceptions it seems to be prev
alent where animal diet is mostly con-
sumed.
Black races are remarkably i'm
more prone to it. while the white races
are the most susceptible. 1t occurs
when the tissues are undergoing retro
grade metamorphosis. Cancer is un-
doubtedly on the increase. The prin-
cipal increase involves the alimentary
tract. There are certain district called
cancer belts" Such areas are usual
ly low lying and damp.
Women are attacked by cancer far
earlier and more often than men.
Much recent experimental work points
to the cell as the essential element in
the development of cancer The para
site theory is discredited by the Har-
yard commission. The report of the
imperial cancer research fund destroys
all known theories of the origin of
cancer, but proposes no new theory.
Surgical treatment has been estab-
lished on a firmer basis than ever be-
fore.-Medical Record.

sRAvED ANGER OF KING.
Lafayette FIaunted Liberty Medal In
Face Of Louis.

Shortly after Lafayette's return to
France from his second sojourn in
America, he was at Versailles. where
the king was about to review a divi-
sion of troops. Lafayette was asked
to join in the review.
He was dressed in the American uni
form, and was standing by the side of
the Prince de Conde, when the king,
in his tour of conversation with the
officers, came to him, and. after
speaking on several topics. asked him
some questions about his uniform and
the military costume of the United
States. The kings attention was at
tracted by little medal attached to
the generals coat, and he asked what
1t was.
Lafayette replied that it was a sym
Dol which it was the custom of for
eign officers in American service to
wear, and that It bore device.
"And what is the device upon
yours?" asked the king.
my device" said the young gem
eral, pointing to his medal. "is a lib
erty pole standing on broken crown
and scepter."
The king smiled, and with some
pleasantly upon the republican pro-
pensities of a French Marquis in
American uniform, turned the conver-
sation into other channels. Conde
looked grave, but was silent-The

RIGHT HOME.
Doctor Recommends Postum from
Personal Test.

No one is better able to realize the
injurious action of caffeine-the drug
in colfee-on the heart, than the doc
tor.
When the doctor himself has been
relieved by simply leaving off coffee
and using Postum, he can refer with
full conviction to his own case.
A Mo. physician prescribes Postum
for many of his patients because he
was benefited by it. He says:
Il wish to add my testimony in re-
gard to that excellent preparation
Postum. 1 have had functional or
nervous heart trouble for over 15
years, and part of the time was unable
to attend to my business.
Il was moderate user of coffee and
did not think drinking it hurt me. But
on stopping it and using Postum in
stead, my heart has got all right, and
| ascribe it to the change from coffee
to Postum.
Il am prescribing it now in cases of
sickness, especially when coffee does
not agree, or affects the heart, nerves
or stomach.
when made right it has a much
better flavor than coffee, and is vital
slstainer of the system. l shall con-
tinue to recommend it to our people,
and l have my own case to refer to.
