The Profe..ion Of self Denial.

The husband Of a woman being oper-
ated upon in q Philadelphia hospital
refused to sacrifice his blood that his
wife might be saved. A medical stu
dent volunteered. The operation pro-
ceeded. The womaRs life was saved.
Consider what most Of the schools
teach. They endow young men and
women with advantage in the strug-
gle for livelihood, arm them against
poverty, against the impulse of crime
and the compu1sfon Of primitive needs.
They train their minds to be nfmble.
to be exact, to be confident and ca
pable. All this teaching is for the good
of the student, for his own betterment.
In no other schools than the medical
universities is emphasis laid upon SELF
denial. In no other schools. are men
and women bred to be ready, to be
willing, to make efficient sacrifices for
any in need, brother or friend or stran-
ger. The harder the medical profess
sion works along its present lines the
nearer it comes to cutting its own
throat. In quelling disease it pushes
away its own bread. A reduction in
the number of medical schools and the
placing of a limit upon their output of
graduates will remove the dangers of
il1egitimate practice and make these
tenets of self-denial more conspicuous
and bring them something like their
just reward.-Toledo Blade.

But Mr.. Balfour's great genius led
him no further than a set of books,
Mr.. Asquith's ingenuity and daring
produced nothing more than "set Of

cumbed hopelessly with a ..set of

70 Prevent Will Contests.

There has been introduced in the
Massachusetts legislature a bill to
prevent will contests, by the simple
expedient of providing that when
man has made and executed his will,
he may go before a probate court and
have the question of his legal ability
to thus dispose Of his property passed
upon. There are obvious advantages in
this plan Heirs would, of course, have
a right to be heard, but those who
thought they were not generously
dealt with, might, from motives of poll
Icy. refrain from making any sugges-
ton that the person making the will
was of unsound mind. There would be
the possibility. not to say the prob
ability, that soundness of mind would
be tablished. Then there might be
danger that the man of property, act
ing upon very natural impulse, would
make a new will, which might in turn
be sustained, and which would make
the last state of the doubters worse
than the first. The bill is approved
by ex-Attorney General Albert E
P1llsbury of Massachusetts,, who says:
1.-THE looting of dead mems estates
has now become an established indus
try in Massachusetts,, as it has been
in New York for many years. A will

GRANITE CUTTERS MUST PAY.
Supreme Court Hands Down Ruling ir
Case Of Mariana De Minico Agains'
Union.

The Worcester (Mass.) Gazette says:
In the Worcester county case of
Mariana De Minico VS.. David Craig ct
al, the full bench Of the supreme court
has handed down a decision which di-
reefs the defendants to pay the plaintiff
$500. with interest from Jan. 10, and
costs.
The defendants were officers and
members of the Milford branch of the
Granite Cutters International assocfa-
ton of America and the plaintiff claims
that on or about June ~, 1903. the de-
PENDANTS, combining and c0nspIrlng
with other members of the branch,
caused his discharge as foreman in the
employ of the Wells Brothers company
in Hopkinton. De Minico further al
leges that on or about June % of the
same year a number of the defendants,
acting in their representative capacity
as members of committee OF the Mil
ford branch, approached Frank a.
Wells. the treasurer OF the Wells
Brothers company, and demanded an
immediate discharge of plaintiff as
foreman of the company's works in
Milford on the ground that he had
without cause, as they claimed, dis
charged a certain workman from the
company's employ.
The plaintiff also claimed that de-
PENDANTS combined and conspired to
prevent him from securing work with
any employer, and particularly with
the Wells company, by threatening the
company with strike OF its employees

The Galapagos Islands.

Washington confirms a report from
Quito that the United States is bid
ding for possession of the Galapagos
islands. though the statement that-fif
Teen millions had been offered. for the
property is not verified. Doubtless
the government of Ecuador would
gladly accept a smaller sum. This
isolated soil was last of public inter-
est when one of the world voyaging
battleship fleet visited it in search of
American sailors whom rumor said had
been wrecked there. The islands have
long been famous among scientists.
Their unique fauna1 phenomena figure
notably in the speculations Of the OAR
winians. Though the group is called
by the Spanish for tortoise" indi-

probably given them by the buccaneers
