PHYSICIANS and FEES.
A Medical View of the Doctors Charge
For His Services,

A Medical Wow Of the Doctors Charge
For His Services.
Those who discuss the physicians
fee frequently miss the essence Of it.
AS a matter of fact, under present
social conditions the charge made to
the wealthy and we'll to do is the nor
NAL and proper fee; the lowered
charges made to those less fortunate
are concessions. The tremendous field
Of the physicians charity is therefore
usually underestimated, for it extends
to great majority of his patients.
In olden times, when medicine was
nearly all art and but little science.
the fee was unknown. Like other art
lists, the leech received an honorarium,
the weight of which depended natu-
rally upon the resources OF the patient.
The popular impression that physi-
clans make the rich pay for the poor is
incorrect. They extend their services to
all alike, and all are supposed to pay as
much as they can afford for services
really priceless and impossible to rep
resent adequately in money values.
Any attempt made to establish stand
ard fees by law is sure to work in
justice to the physician. The "stand-
ard'' fee would have to be much high
er than the average fee at present and
there would have to be some method
Of enforcing it's sure payment. Only
with the standard fixed, as now, by
the ability Of the wealthy is it possible
for the poor to receive the benefits of
the highest professional skill without
losing their self respect.-New York

LOADED SILKS.
The Way the Fabric Is AduIterated to
Increase Its Wciuht.

The Way the Fabric Is Adulterated to
Increase Its Weight.
If properly handled silk is the strong
est and most durable Of all textile ma
terials, but the various processes Of
manufacture that remove much Of the
natural gum cause it to lose so large
an amount of it's weight that unscrup-
ulous dyers and manufacturers resort
to loading" dipping the thrown silk
into a solution of bichloride Of tin.
Some are not content with restoring
the original weight of the raw silk, but
'load" it until it's weight is multiplied
three or four fold. This operation
makes the skeins more valuable. but
it destroys the durability Of the fila
ments.
Stretching the threads to their elas>
tic limit, so that a given weight will
weave a greater number of yards, and
steaming to give the material an un-
natural luster are other processes that
prove profitable to manufacturers, but
costly to the consumers and that cause
many people to regard silk as an un-
certain and treacherous fabric, with an
inexplicable tendency to split, crack
and fall into holes, even though pack
ed away in drawers or hanging up.
The use of cheap. inferior and de-
structive dyes is another practice
equally injurious and perhaps still
more common.-London Family Her.

The Smallest Pension.

Great Britain's pension system is as
liberal as may be considering the vast
number of persons carried on both the
military and the civil lists. but in one
case the record for smallness Of pay
ment has undoubtedly been establish
ed. Various factors enter into deter
mining the amount to be paid sailors,
and these factors so combined against
one old salt that it was found that he
could draw a pension of not any
more than fourpence-S cents-a year.
Promptly on each quarter day there
comes an official communication trans
mitting the amount due in the form of
postage stamps, and he is granted
leave of absence in order that he may
convert this into money at the post
Office. Then, after the proverbial man
ner Of sailors, he promptly proceeds to
'blow' the entire amount.-New York

Customs Of the Remnants Of Once
Powerful Tribe.
Normally the Tehuelches, as the
Patagonian Indians are called, are a
peaceable and kindly people, yet they
are impulsive. capable Of strong preju-
dices. very revengeful and-often
with good reason-suspicious of stran-
gers. They are not to be trifed with
and when under the influence of drink
are brutal and dangerous. They show
love for their children and wives and
kindness to their old people. They are
divided into numerous tribes or groups,
each having it's chief or cacique, upon
whom the burdens Of government rest
but lightly.
They believe in a good and an evil
spirit, whom they propitiate, and have
many stories, myths and superstitions
connected with the sun. moon and
stars, while the Staying of horses and
drinking Of blood form a conspicuous
part of their superstitions, birth, mar
rage and death ceremonies, many of
which are most repulsive.
When Magellan first passed through
the strait there were perhaps no fewer
than 10000 Patagonians roaming from
the Rio Negro to the strait, while to-
day, driven back from the ittoral to
the high pampas and the foothills of
the Andes, altogether they would
probably not total over 500.-Harper's

POWER OF MUSIC.
The Awakening That Came to Ste

phenson on Hearing Ole Bull.
Ole Bornemann Bull, who was one of
the famous wizards Of the violin in
the nineteenth century. had little diff
Guilty in swaying an audience by the
magic Of his wonderful performance
on his favorite instrument.
The great violinist was greatly ad
mired by Stephenson. the inventor of
the locomotive, although the latter
had little appreciation of music in his
soul. A call Of some nature one day
took Stephenson to Ole Bulls home.
After the business on hand had been
transacted the inventor arose to go,
whereupon the master pressed him to
remain and hear the tones Of famous
violin which had lately come into his
possession.
Ole Bull began to explain the mar
velous construction of the violin, the
perfect exactness required in each
minutest part. The inventor became
interested in the subject. Finally Ole
Bull explained how the sound waves
were produced and the relation Of the
different parts to their production.
Then, still explaining, he drew his
magic bow across the strings in a
burst of exquisite music.
Stephenson listened, spellbound Ole
Bull played on. When the music final
ly died away Stephenson burst into
tears and sobbed. There has been
something in my life that was lack
ing, and at last I've found out what
it ISL
