self and effects to Tonopah. Ed
Powers, the well-known Rye Patch
comedian, was detailed. on this
lonesome cruise, and left immedi-
ately on the terrible journey which
lay before him. He reached Mil
AIRS in due time-and without mis-

After loading his freight for the
return trip the pair gave sighs of
relief, thinking that ere long they
would be in the second city of Ne
vada; but alas! it's long lane that
has no turn.

not been pressed into service for
years, began to buck, and buck il

alone.

in which region it seems fairly clear
that four would answer all purposes.
The south now contains one doctor for

Prussia considers herself over
stocked with one for every 1000.
Thirteen hundred doctors gradual
ed from the south last year, when
400 would have saved all purposes
due to dea;h and increases in popula-
ton"
Reminding the doctors OF the OK
allied nature of their calling, DIR. Alder
man said. The medical profession
stands in a class all by itself among
human callings. It's ancestry Is as Old

laundering but majestic progress
through the ages, since the Greek IN

vice to mortal man has been so i'm
measurable that merely TO laud it is
