NIilton's Natural History.

The pigeons that found nesting

which Milton was familiar in his early
years-unless we make an exception
Of the ubiquitous sparrow. He went
in his seventeenth year to Cambridge,
where ne made acquaintance with the
sedgy fats of the Cam and took as
much interest in birds and flowers,
beasts and trees as his greater inter-
est at that age in literature and philo-
sophy would permit.

obseryant period Of life for nature

eight to sixteen years of age-and he

SURGEON soaked BY
COUNTRY DOCTOR
Performs Operation Gratis on Poor
Patient, But Local Physician
Collects 500 Fee.

'Why iso IL that a physician I'm a
country town hesitates TO charge a
patient for accompanying him 10 the
city for an operation" is IA question
that has occurred To laymen who have
been following the discussion relative
TO the division OF fees between sur
geons and general practitioners.
There are many reasons. say the
local surgeons who have come In con-
tact with such cases. One OF the very
common ones is that the country
physician likes to pose before his
patients as being a phllanthropist,
which he can very well AFFORD to do
II he Is getting his little "diyyy" out
OF the operating surgeons big fee
without the patients knowledge. Thus
the country doctor gets credit In his
little home community OF being big
hearted, whole-souled gentleman, even
though II be a false credit. while the
surgeon Is Obliged TO shoulder all the
odium incident to the charging OF
high fee. boosted perhaps In response
To the country doctors demand for
rake-off.
Instances OF gross deception on the
part of these country practitioners
are numerous. and sometimes the
surgeons themselves are taken In by
the doctors as a part OF the latters
scheme TO fatten their own purses

had collected 500 from the patient
for the operation on the pretext that
he was collecting II for me and then
put II In his own pocket.
Or. Louis j. Hirschman, whose
views on the feesplitting evil have
already appeared In The Times cites
an instance OF base ingratitude on the

had once performed an operation.
