quently than the honest physician.
There is no type Of malignant mala-
dies with which he fails to become ac-
Quainted, no hospital SO crowded with
c%Ontagion that he dares not walk freely
through it's wards. His vocation is
among the sick and the dying: he is
the familiar friend of those who are
sinking under infectious disease; and
he never shrinks from the horror of
observing it under all it's aspects. He
must do SO with equanimity; as he in-
hales the poisoned atmosphere he must
coolly reflect on the medicines which
mitigate h sufferings that he cannot
remedy. Nay. after death has ensued,
he must search with the dissecting
knife for it's hidden If SO by
multiplying his own perils he may dis
cover some alienation for the affiic-
lions Of Others. And why is this? Be
aus the physician is Indifferent to
death? Because he is steeled and hard
ened against the fear of it? Because
he despises or pretends to despise It?
BY no means It is his especial busi-
ness to value life. to cherish the least
spark-of animated existence. And the
habit OF caring for the lives OF his fell
low NE Is Tar from leading him to an
habitual Indifference to his own. The
physician shuns every danger but such
as the glory Of his profession com.
mands him to defy.

With h status of her children at
stake. h former Anna Gould. now
Duchess de T%alleyrand. is looking for
ward with the keenest of interest to
the final session of the Rota, a Roman
papal court, on the annulment pro-
reeding instituted by her first husband,
Count Boni de Castellane, against
their marriage. The first decision of
the court was against h annulment;
the second. a recent one, for it. The
third hearing which is set for early
in May, will decide the matter SO far
AS the court is concerned and bring
the plea before the Pope for ratification
or rejection.
The Catholic church forbids divorce.
but 1t does not exclude annulment If
it is satisfied that the attitude OF
either party was not sincere or If other
conditions justify the view that the
marriage was not a real one. Counsel
for Castellane is trying to show that
the attitude of the then Anna Gould
toward the marriage was not properly
serious.
The present Duchess de Talleyrand
secured a civil divorce from the Count
di Castellane. but not a decree from
the church.
