THE FAMILY DOCTOR.

Fhe rain may fall, the snow may
cover UP the trails, and the blizzard
may nave possession of the face of the
earth, but there is one man who must
face it all.
That is the family doctor, whose
profession leads him wherever there
Is human need.
Most lines Of business are dull DUR
ing such weather as we have had the
past week, when the roads have been
almost impossible. Not SO the doctor
Where there is only a slight illness the
untrlendIy elements seem to have a
mallgn influence, and fear takes pos
session of hearts that are ordinarily
courageous. Then it is that the doc
tor is needed, and then is when he
goes. In fair weather and foul. in
the day, or the darkness of night, off
he goes to minister to those who need,
when he may himself be half dead for
sleep.
Many times. after a hard trip. the
patient seems better, but it is because
of confidence in his doctor. The know
ledge that he is coming braces the
t1mid sufferer, and the doctor helps by
the strength OF his personality. The
wise physician always heals largely
by suggestive therapeutics.
He is keener for the welfare of
those who trust him than he is for
the money to be made in the practice
of his loved profession, and so he is
cheerful and serene. Because of this,
his people make many unnecessary
demands on him.
That is all part of the business of
the good family doctor, whose heart,
and hand, and head, as we'll as his
strength, are always busy in the SER
vice of humanity.-Kinsley Graphic.
A DEFENSE OF WHISPERS.
At the present time there is a good
deal OF foolishnesS being poked at the
fellows who wear a full beard. The
little newspapers are calling the full
bearo corn fodder, hay and underbrush.
The doctors are having much to say
about the full beard being unsanfta-
ry and full of microbes and germs,
and it is destined to go. When the
Almighty made man he conceived the
idea that some protection was neces-
sary for the throat and vocal organs
and he caused the whiskers to grow,
and when whiskers were a common
thing throat trouble asthma, inf1am-
ed tonsils and the kindred diseases
were less numerous than they are at
present, but as soon as man got the
idea in his head that he could i'm
prove on the works Of the creator he
began to suffer the consequences in
augmented throat troubles. Shaving off
the whiskers is a source of revenue
to the BARRIERS and a good thing for
the doctors, and the devil smiles a
broad smile when he sees some news

An AGED kentucky Coin.

Colonel George F. Anderson, on
Saturday, received from the National
museum, of Washington city, the old
coin that was found on his farm some
months ago, twenty feet under the
earth. Some workmen were excavat-
ing a well, and at depth OF twenty
feet the coin was struck. The experts
in charge of the National museum
state that the coin was made 200 years
before Christ, during the reign of
King PtoIemy. The coin is over Z, 100
years old, and the mystery is how it
reached a point twenty feet beneath
the earth. The indications are that
this country was visited by people
from the old country long before the
days of Christopher Columbus. Mr..
Anderson was told that the coin Is

has been banished by the Hetrick

ABOUT DREAD PELLAGRA.
Government Scientists Are Unable to
Discover the Cause.

Washington, Dec, 9.--After many
months Of investigation of pellagra
in the Southern States, the scientists
of the public health and marine hos
pital service are in as much doubt
as ever as to the cause Of the
scourge. Meanwhile the disease
seems to be gaining y and it has been
reported that nearly every physician
in South Carolina has from five to
fifteen cases In his private practice.
John ID. Long, assistant surgeon
general, says it has been demonstrate
ed that cures can be effected even up
to the fifth attack, but that there Is
little hope when the patient has
reached the stage Of insanity.
Pellagra has been found to be
seasonal disease, and it Is thought
that the greatly varying temperatures
Of South Carolina may be partly re-
sponsible for It's prevalence there.
The investigators have found that
the greatest number Of cases devel-
open during the spring and autumn
months when there are sudden and
marked changes in the weather
Comparison of pellagra In the
United States with pellagra in Italy,
where the disease is common, has
proved that the attack is much more
severe in this country. Children, it
has been found, respond to treatment
much moro satisfactorily than do
adults, and show the greatest per-
centage Of recoveries. When the dis
ease reaches the point of producing
Insanity, a suicidal tendency develops
and nearly all pellagra victims choose
drowning.
Cotton seed oil, Indian corn, GER
tain classes Of vegetables and re-
Gently discovered gnat are among
the supposed causes, but the disease
still is a mystery to the scientists.
