Precautions OF Old T;.,o Doctors.

Precautions OF Old EEi..;e Doctors.
1t was formerly the practice among
physicians to carry cane having
hollow head, the top of which was
gold, pierced with holes like Il pepper
box. The top contained small
amount of aromatic powder or of
SNUFF, and on entering the house or
room where disease supposed to be
infectious prevailed the doctor would
strike his cane on the floor TO agitate
the powder and then apply 1t to his
nose; hence all the old prints of physi-
clans represent them with canes to
their noses

D. M'NICoL RETURNS.

From Month In San Francisco.

Local Manager ID. McNicol of the
Postal Telegraph company has return
ed from months absence in San
Francisco where he went in company
with other officials and sub-offleials
OF the company TO help out in the big
operators strike there. Mr.. McNicol re-
ports the strike as entirely over with
nothing left for the strikers to do, but
to return to their keys and behave
themselves, as they have slgnally fall
ed TO carry their point. He says men
who have been with the company for
Is ana 90 years and who We're enrning
$i25 to $3.50 per month struck. merely
because "a lot OF irresponsible labor
agitators some not over 10 years old
made them believe that the company
WAS at their mercy. Both telegraph
companies only recently advanced
wages 10 per cent, yet In the face OF
this, the men struck. The result was
that expert operators were called In
from along the lines, and In fact such
excellent service was given that let
ters were received AT the san Francisco
office complimenting the local man
agement on the excellent character
OF the service, and stating that II was
better than when there was no strike.
Mr.. McNicol says very bitter feel
ing has arisen In san Francisco
against the labor unions. so that n
strike breaker aud "scab" Is now
generally regarded as n decent man.
II not gentleman. The street cur
