out his shlngle he will undoubtedly
start Of with most lucrative prac.
lice. as he can find plenty to do in
his own ranks, since there has been
something iawtally wrong with the or.
g%anizatIon for a good many years. It
is true that MI. McGraw has been

will have a good deal Of trouble in
treating the epidemic that has broken
