ing as physician, he has won for
himself a practice which is indeed en-
viable. In fact, his offices are crowd
ed from morning until night with his
many patients. To show the vast and
mammoth amount of work done at
this institute, DR.. McClane and his as
sistants have treated nearly three
thousand patients since the opening
of the offices, who have come not only
from Ocala but many points in this
and adjoining states.
DR.. McClane seems to be admirably
adapted for the environments and the
management of such an institution,
his whole life being wrapped up in his
work, and being progressive man, he
laughs at the dogmas, old-time Gus
toms and treatments of cases by the
old-time methods. The practice of
medicine, he said, when we interview
ed him., has made wonderful change
and most wonderful stride in recent
years. The practitioner of old and
the doctor who does not keep up with
the times will be and is lost in the
maze of new methods in the art of
healing. For instance, the great stride

IN this room are worked out the most

and meteorological problems.
In fact, you will find nothing want

that the profession has made in the
treatment of germ diseases, or dis
eases that are brought on or contract
ed by germs or bacteria. Where the
patient can be inoculated by culture
of this germ, which is already in his
system, and the disease stopped or
radically cured by this incubation,
the great and wonderful discovery of
DR.. Paul Ehrlich for the treatment
and relief of the great scourge of spe-
cific blood trouble, really necessitates
a physician to become an expert bac-
teriologist to perfect himself in his
profession.
Again, every physician recognizes
the fact that medicine alone will not

peutic agents must be brought into
play, such as baths of all descriptions.

had cut the horse with his whip was
jerked down into the road. The highway
men stopped the horse and pulled the
satchel, which contained between 5000 and
$500, from the buggy. Then they struck
the horse and caused it to run away. The

fair Friday night the automobile of c. H.
Passo of Yutan went into the ditch about
three miles east of Wahoo, throwing Mr..
and Mrs. Passo, Mrs. James Boyle. Claus
