let Me Enjoy.

Let me enjoy The earth no less
Because the alternating Might
That fashioned forth its loveliness
Had other aims than my delight.
About my path there aits a Fair,
Who throws me not q word or sign;
I will find charm in her uneare,
And laud those lips not meant for mine.
From manuscripts of moving song,
Inspired by scenes and souls unknown,
I'll pour out raptures that belong
To others, as they We're my own.
Perhaps some day, toward Paradise
And all its blest-if such should be-
Il shall lift glad afar-olf eyes,
Though 1t contain no place for me.

Elephants on Strike.

Ihere was considerable talk last
month about strike among the coal
miners, but it is not generally known
that there was once a strike among
elephants. This happened in Cen
trail India where the animals ha0
been trained to draw heavy artiI-
lery. The British officers who looked
after the two elephant batteries In
question were away for a few days
during which the native drivers
thought to make a little money for
themselves. They therefore only
gave the elephants half their proper
quality of fodder, and sold the rest.
The elephants put up with this for
two days, but on the third day they
turned on the natives and drove them
from the camp. Then the animals
refused either to eat their food or to-
work for several days. The officer
in command, when he heard of IL,
guessed what was the cause of the
trouble, and at once discharged an
the old native drivers, and person
ally saw that the new ones distrib-
uted the food rightfully.
The elephants appeared to hold a
consultation together, and at the END
of it accepted the fodder and re-
turned to work Their wrong had
been put right, and so the strike
ended.

How Prices May Be Raised On the
Sick in Iowa.

How Prices May Be Raised On the
Sick in Iowa.
National Magazine.-It is difficult to
realize. however, that trust-inspried
medical greed is running riot in many
other states as it is in Iowa. l can
hardly believe that the organized doe
tors of any other state feel so certain
of their power, and so sure of their
ground, that they would dare to pro
pose an agreement by which a critic
ally sick child shall have diagnosis
value to the attending physician of a
cool $100.
But this outrageous proposition was
made in the address of President L.
w. Allen at the annual meeting of the
Second District Medical association,
held at Davenport on Nov. 10, 1908,
and the plan was received in all seri-
BUSINESS, as was shown by the ap
pointment of a committee to urge it
before the state and county societies.
The address is printed in the Janu-
airy number of the Iowa State Medf
cal Journal (the trust organ) with ed
itorial approval indicating that the
leaders of the state society, whose
views are reflected in that publication,
expect to establish the 500 diagno-
sis fee as a rule of the whole organf-
cation.
Celebrating upon the Mccormick
order Suggesting" increased fees all
along the line, DR.. Allen said:
in any event his (the doctor's) fee
for the diphtheria case is not over
twenty or thirty dollars. Should he be
man of quick action, with the early
use of antitoXin he may cure the case
and be dismissed with some six or
eight visits, Or chargeq of $40 or SIS.
| wish to say right here, that our pro
fession by it's slumbering business
methods is endangering the public
every day; child's life is worth more
than the price of few yards of silk.
and the public should demand that we
make diagnosis as soon as scientific
methods allow possible, and for that
diagnosis we should be paid adequate
ly-not 81 or 81 per visit. but sum
commensurate with the responsibility
of a diagnosis where life is in
volved, and such fee should not be
less than 500. Such a fee would al
low the average man to give more
time and attention to such a class os
cases and would allow him to live
without dividing his time to such an
extent as to neglect these and other
cases. Suppose the case is one of scar
let feyer-how many of you are salts
he'd with your knowledge and skill in
handling these cases when of a severe
type? How many of you would feel as
much worry and responsibility with
three ordinary cases of appendicitis
as you do with one severe case OF
scarlet fever, and yet you receive So
per visit, or $50 or $40 for the latter.
While for your appendicitis cases you
receive between 5000 and $1,000. Is il
any wonder that our young men rush
into any abdomen that contains an
aching appendix without fear or
trembling, and avoid the anxiety and
lean purses which follow the devoted
attendance upon ordinary diseases OF

low a voice, in so significant a tone
that Lorrie looks at him curiously,
and as she does so faint color rises
to her face, a sudden idea strikes up
on her.
Lorrie is not fiirt, though she is
sitting upon the garden wall at a
quarter-past ten with Lord Kendale;
she is simply a strong, healthy girl,
with high spirits and an inordinate
love of her own way. But at this mo
ment it occurs to her how extremely
amusing it would be to persuade Guy
Kendale to fall in love with her, and
so upset the Earl of Latcham's
wealthy and cold-blooded designs
Lord Guy looks at her with dis
comfited surprise.
Would you mind telling me what
you are laughing at, Miss Dolores? ?"
,he asks, rather grimly.
Why, at you; of courseI There is
no one else here, is there?" and she
looks round with innocent surprise
Then perhaps you will tell me why
you are laughing"

Residence of Mr.. Cook
Was Burned Last Night

The residence of Mr.. B. O. Cook
was destroyed by fire at midnight
last. The fire originated from an
oil lamp upset by dog Mr.. Cook
and his family had not retired, but
were on the front porch when the
fire was discovered and fought the
fire until it was too late to save any
of the furniture. The fire depart
ment responded as soon as the alarm
was turned in and at once had three
streams on the blaze, but the Jest
they could do was to save the PlOp-
per home adjoining. Only sixteen
feet entervened between the two
building and the fireman had hot
work, but the building was saved
with slight damage. One stream
was handled thru the upper story of
the Plopper building as the heat
was too entense to fight from the
alley. The insurance was $3.50 on
the building and furniture, the loss
was considerably more. The En-
terprise wants to 90 on record as
congratulating the firemen on the
the work they did. The property
they saved goes long way toward
paying the annual expense of the
department. The dog prybably es-
capped with the smell of oil to the
discomfort of his crop of fees.
