False Doctrine.

The late DR.. Theodore Wolf, pro-
lessor Of chemistry at Delaware col

Of unselfishness by having his fees as
state chemist greatly reduced on the
ground that they were exorbitant.
"Dr. Wolf" said Newark man,
was delightful lecturer. l often
dropped into the college to hear him.
I'll never forget one of his lectures on
luack medicines.
He told us about an early patient
Of his, a man who dosed himself with
about half-peck of pills and two or
three gallons of quack medicine every
week
There was nothing the matter with
the fool. but all this silly medicine
swilling, and DR.. Wolf told him SO, but
Il did no good.
Then DR.. Wolf appealed to the
mans wife to stop him, but she de-
clared that II couldn't be done. She
had quoted at him, again and again.
she said, the verse In the liturgy that
pointed out his sin, and
but where. interrupted DR.
Wolf. bewildered, where does the lit
nrgy say anything against taking
auack medicine?'
she was prompt with her reply:
From all false doctoring, Good
Lord deliver us!

The distinction of first appointing a
woman postmaster does not belong to
America, nor is the employment OF
women in the postal service a new
idea. As early as 154S a woman post
master was appointed to look after
the mails of Braine lie Comte, an i'm
portant town of France. In the try
ing times of the Thirty Years War
the principal Office in the postal serv-
ice of Europe was held by woman,
Alexandrine de Rue. From 1928 to
1646 she was in charge of the mails
of the German empire. the Neither
lands. Burgundy and Lorraine. She
was known as master general of
the mails. In America, Elizabeth
Harvey was the first to hold a place
in the postal department. She had
charge of the letters in Portsmouth,

teenth century. A half century after
ward Lydia Hill was placed in charge
OF the post office in Salem, Mass.
