For such a wide world there are a
lot of narrow men.
Many a man with wheels thinks he

A new cook may bring the best of

One woman can be very fond of
another-if they are hundreds of
miles apart.
If a woman nags her husband it's
up to him to supply her with plenty
of cause.
The first time girl is engaged
she imagines herself as important as
a heroine in a novel;

strange man makes a girl almost as
indignant as his failure to notice
her,

yourself.
When man flatters woman she
should appoint herself an investiga

has up his sleeve.

Notice to the Public.

At a meeting of the local Medical
Fraternity few days. ago it was
brought to the attention of the
physicians that there was an in
creasing number of people who owed
these physicians large bills. but who
made no effort to pay, on the con-
trary would make large bills with
another physician, and still another
in an endless chain, apparently,
considering said bill paid when
new doctor was used.
The Fraternity realizes that in the
practice of medicine there must be
lot of charity work, and it fully
realizes the aim, and purpose of the
profession is not purely commercial,
as is evidenced by the fact that it IS
the only business or profession on
earth that spends its best efforts in
preventing the very thing from
which it derives its living; namely
the care of public health and preven-
ton of disease But the profession
also realizes that there must neces-
sariy be business side TO the prac-
tice Of medicine, as physicians must
live and meet expenses as other
people, and we regret to know that
the business end of medicine has
reached such a condition in this
community as to compel the physi-
clans to take some action to protect
themselves.
Therefore the following resolution
was unanimously passed, to wit:
Resolved: That no physician shall
treat, attend, or prescribe for any
person, who owes another doctor
until said person shall pay, or il
some way satisfy said debt. Thi:
to apply to the above described per
sons have been reported to the asso
citation.
The above resolution will in no wa,
work a hardship upon any one. in a
5 much as it will not apply to cases o
' actual charity or emergencies.

one of the most spectacular in recent
