Deaths from x-Rays.

The death of DIR. Weigel, surgeon
of Rochester, from a disease due to
the constant use of the X-rays makes
the fourth who has lost his life from
this cause, says the Chistian Advo-
cate.
\ The others were an assistant of
Thomas Edison, Boston physician
and woman of San Francisco named
F1eischman. In the case of DR.. Wei.
gel since 1904, when his right hand
and all but the thumb and finger
of the left hand were removed, there
had been four operations in trying
to save his life. The first removed
a part of the right shoulder; then q
part of the muscles covering the right
breast.
Mystery completely envelops the
cause of death, the disease being I'M
known to medical science, though 1t
is believed to involve some great prin-
ciple of life. DR.. Weigel was presi-
dent of the Rochester Academy Of
Medicine and the American Ortho-
paedic society.

PUT II IN GOOD LIGHT.
Ono Comforting Thought In the Death
Of the Chickens.

A lady who had recently moved to
the suburbs was very fond OF her first
brood Of chickens. Going out one at.
ternoon she left the household in
charge of her eight-year-old boy. Be-
fore her return thunderstorm came
up. The youngster forgot the chicks
during the storm, and was dismayed
after 1t passed to find that half of
them had been drowned. Though
fearing the wrath to come, he thought
best to make a clean breast Of the
calamity, rather than leave it to be
discovered.
Mamma" he said, contritely, when
his mother had returned, mamma, six
Of the chickens are dead"
Dead" cried his mother. six!
How did they die?"
The boy saw his chance.
II think-I think they died happy"

about his little boy. The neighbours
young hopeful was very i'll, and Willie
and the other youngsters In the block

in the streets. The neighbours bell
rang one day and she opened 1t to find
Willie standing bashfully on her front
steps.
How is he to.day?" he inquired in
a shy whisper.
Hes better, thank you, dear, and
what thoughtful child you are to
come and ask"
Willie stood a moment on one foot
and then burst forth again, I'm orful
sorry Jimmy's sick"
The mother was profoundly touched.
She could find no further words to
say. but simply kissed him. Made still
holder by the caress, Willie began to
back down the steps, repeating at in
tervals his sorrow for his playmate's
illness. At the bottom step he halted
and looked up. III Jimmy should de-"

WHAT THE WOMEN WORE,
OF Course the Story Teller Didn't
Really Mean Just That.

A gentleman recently returned from
that quiet little Maryland resort,
ocean City, has tale to tell of con-
ditions that are really sensational.
And the worst of 1t was that he did
not know they were sensational at all.
He was out calling the other evening,
and the conversation started with the
shirtwaist man, who, the returned
wanderer said, was to be found in
great quantities at the summer resort.
Then he told about the habit every
body down there had contracted Of
going without hats. This is the way
he told 1t to an interested company:
You see everybody down there
going about just the same. The men
never wear coats; they go about in
just their shirts and trousers, and the
women are Just like them"

FOR SELFISH ENDS.
Tho Efforts Being Made by the Ameri-
can Medical Association.

The Political activity of the Ameri-
so pronounced as to cause comment
in political circles especially as the
the avowed purpose of the Doctors of
the Regular" or Allopathic school, nf
which the Association is chiefly cori-
posed, is to secure the passage of such
laws as will not only prevent the
sale of so-called Patent" medicines.
but will restrict the practice of medi-
cine and healing to the schools" now
recognized. This In many states would
prevent the growing practice Of Os-
teopathy, and in nearly every state
would prevent the healers Of the
Christian Science and mental science
belief from practicing those sciences
in which the faith of SO many intelli-
gent people is SO firmly rooted.
The American Medical Association
has a Committee on Legislation"
and the committee has correspond
ents in practically every township
some 10000 correspondents in all.
This committee at the last session of
the American Medical Association
held in June of this year expressed
hope that a larger number Of physi-
clans than heretofore will offer them
selves as candidates for Congress at
the first opportunity. In its annual
report this Committee said: ITO meet
the growing demands of the move
ment, however, particularly II the
work of active participation In State
Legislation is undertaken, larger
clerical force must be employed"
This is almost the first time in the
history of the United States that any
organized class has frankly avowed
the purpose of capturing legislatures
and dominating legislation In their
own selfish interests.
The American Medical Association
has about $4,000 members Of whom
$1,000 are fully constituted mem
bers" and the rest are members be-
local societies. The Association owns
real estate in Chicago valued at $111,-
1871 and its total assets are $291,-
56789. Its liabilities, at the time of
the annual report which was made at
the June meeting, amounted to only
$21,9O6. The excess of assets over
liabilities is increasing at the rate of
about $4,000 year. and the purpose
of the organization Is to dominate
the field of medicine, and by crushing
all competitions by securing the pas
sage of prohibitive legislation, compel
all of the people of the United States
to pay a doctors fee every time the
most simple remedy is needed.

chicken as it was served. Finally she
came to the son of prominent poll
