ETHICS OF THE MEDICAL PROFESSION
Some Remarks on Doctors Signs and Their Significance
New York Sun.

A recent Issue OF the Medical Re-
view Of Reviews contains some SEN
aibIe reflections upon the subject OF
doctors signs. The public has long
been pgzzled by the peculiar methods
adopted by physicians in what they
are pleased TO term medical ethics.
We agree Wit. DR.. voorhees, that to
the hard-headed, practical common
sense mind of the layman there is
much reason for amusement in the
socslled ethics Of the medical pro-
fegsson.
Tfis code was Instituted about a
century ago when the family doctor
droye or walked 10 the homes Of his
patients without undue haste, avoid

apionlb and more intent upon the
maintenance OF his dignity than upon
f.fs timely arrival at the bedside He
wsa tae arfster Of health and life, and

CONSCIENCE AND CLEAN MIX.

Recently it was published broadcast
that some one bad cut the tails from
three horses at Mosinee; that the
horses would probably live, etc. The
fact is the tails were only trimmed
up, but not so as to pain the animals.
While it was disreputable thing to
do still there is a difference, for in
stance in trimming mans whiskers
and In cutting his head off. The
Mcsinee Times says of the cutting:
Last Sunday night between the
hours of ten and six some whelp ed
tered the stables of M. O'Connor, NJ.
Lutz and Conrad Hayes where they
proceeded to put their horses into
stylish dress by cutting off several
inches of their calls in fact cutting
them as close as they could without
causing the animals pain or injury.
At the O'Connor and Lutz barns they
took driving harness from each stall,
and at O'Connor's they locked all
three of his horses. 1t is likely that
other stables would have been en-
tered had not the dogs, of which
their appears to have been a goodly
supply, created such disturbance.
The people who suffered by this
depreciation can conceive of no one
who could have real or fancied
wrong that could possibly be offered
as reason for this outrage. 1t is
likely that sooner or later the guilty
parties will be arrested.

MISLEADING.

The following news item has APP
peared in many newspapers in Wis
consin in the last few weeks:
s'The first state road to be built in
Manitowoc county has just been COM
pleted at Two Rivers. The stretch
covers about one mile on the Two
Rivers Mishicott road. The county,
state and township aid amounted to
SIS, 900, and the value of the invest
ment is proving self-evident. At a
recent election, additional state aid
has been voted and continuation of
the work between Two Rivers and
Manitowoc and Mishicott promises
good roads for the entire county"
The figures are so inaccurate, says
the Wisconsin Highway Commission,
that it tends to produce a very unfair
conception of costs. AS a matter of
fact, the piece of road mentioned was
built at a cost of less than $500, and
was completed for a distance of 5000
feet, this being at cost of $4,000 per
mile. The average for all of the stone
roads built in the state this year, in
Guiding grading and culyert work,
will not exceed $4,000.

WILL MOVE TO WAUSAU.

Attorney Thomas HI. Ryan, one of
the leading attorneys of the city, pres
ident of the Board of Education, presi-
dent of the County Training School
Board and prominently interested in
the growth and welfare of Merrill,
will leave next week for Wausau, his
former home, where he will enter
into partnership with NJ. W. Sweet,
and occupy suite of offices in the
First National Bank Building, hand
ling the big law business of the G.. d.
Jones Land company.
Their household goods will not be
shipped to Wausau and they will still
maintain their residence in the city.
At present they will reside in fur
nished home in that city. Mr. Ryan
will also retain his interests ii the
Lincoln Land & Lumber company of
this city of which he is secretary and
treasurer.
1t is to be regretted that Merrill is
to lose eventually such popular resi-
dents as Mr.. and Mrs. Ryan. They
are among the city's most respected
and popular people, always taking a
keen interest in the social and civic
life of the city, and their removal is
the cause of much regret to their
many friends. One consoling feature
of their departure is that they will
not se located a long distance from
the city, and can mingle with their
hosts of acquaintance frequently.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ryan were former
residents of Wausau, having come to
Merrill about twelve years ago. The
formers father, the late Thos Ryan of
Wausau, was one of the leading legal
lights of Merrill and Northern Wis
consin in earlier days, but became a
resident of that city later. Mrs. Ryan
is daughter of d. ]. Murray, one of
the most prominent and extensive
manufacturers of Wausau.-Merrill

MOTHER SYMPTOMS
PROPHECIES.


The following 'sProphecies of
Mother Shipton'' is printed by re-
quest. Mother Shipton lived in Eng
land more than five hundred years
ago and uttered several SO called
prophecies. The following lines were
first published in 1885, before the dis
coyery of America and before any of
the discoveries and inventions men,
toned therein. All the events pre-
dicted have happened except the
prophecy in the last two lines:
Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with woe.
Around the world thoughts shall fly
In the twinkling of an eye.
Waters shall yet more wonders do,
Now strange, yet shall be true.
The world upside down shall be,
And gold be found at root of tree.
Through hills man shall ride,
And no-horse nor ass be at his side.
Under water man shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk
In the air men shall be seen,
In white, in black, in green.
Iron in the water shall float.
As easy as a wooden boat.
Gold shall be found mid stone,
In land that's now unknown.
Fire and water shall wonders do,
England shall at last admit Jew.
And this world to an end shall come
In eighteen hundred and eighty-one.

WHY WOMEN PREFER IT.

When the newsboy comes through
the train with the Chicago papers,
watch the married couple across the.
aisle. If the man is a well-regulated
husband he will ask his wife. which
paper she prefers, and then you may
lay odds that the one chosen viii. be
THE RECoRD-HERALD There is no
mystery about it. The man knows
that he will find all the news in The
ooRD-HERALD, to be sure, but the
woman knows it is the only paper
that also gives adequate attention to
the things in which women are es-
pecially interested. In every daily
issue she can find bill of fare for the
days three meals, reliable society
news, good book reviews, bright ver-
SEES and Jokes without vulgarity, 8
cartoon that anybody can enjoy and a
fair share Of the news of the day re-

there is "Martha's Management" a
very helpful column of culinary topics.
In the Sunday edition whole section
is devoted to women, including the
most complete department of house

special articles of timely interest.
Then there is the Sunday Magazine

that women prefer THE CHICAGO
