Columbia, April 6.-A bill Of in
dictment OF ''wonts'' on the part Of
the withdrawing fire insurance COM
pantes has been drawn by Fitz Hugh
McMaster, insurance commissioner. in
letter. sent out by him. He said
yesterday that the situation is still in.

present views.
Unless the law is repealed" con-
cludes Mr.. McMaster, south Caro-
lima must take care of herself. with
the aid of the insurance ORGANIZATIONS
now doing business here" He urges
the agents to organize mutual COM
panies.
The letter follows:
There are about a dozen stock
companies now doing agency business
in the, State. The withdrawing stock
companies could do business Just as
well under the law as the companies
which are here. but they won't.
'The, withdrawing companies could
help their old agents and persisten,
policyholders by taking renewals
through their former agents al
brokers. without the companies sub.
3ecting themselves to the law of the
State, but they won't.
The withdrawing companies could

WE do not wish to favor by these
remarks the rushing excitedely to
doctor with every little "toe-ache'
that develops in the family, rsslizing
that there are very great many OF
the minor ills that can be treated as
well by the mother or father at home
as by the medical practitioner, and the
doctor habit" may grow TO be very
expensive and extravagant. one. But
while we have seen a good many cas-
es of this kind, we have noted quite as
many Of people who were either too
phlegmatic and passive to recognize
danger of most imminent nature, or
too frugal and saving to expend few
dollars in medical aid when it could
and would have been the means of pro-
longing indefinitely the life Of some
member of the family. In deciding
as to the proper course to take, send
for doctor or not, II Is well for one
who is little over nervous to divest
him or herself of fright as far as
possible and reason dispassionately on
the question, and if they are not pref
ty sure that they know what the all
ment is and the patient seems ser
iously i'll, it is well to err, if there is
chance of committing an error, on
the side Of safety, and not place 8
human life In jsaP9rdy by delaying
the calling of physician tpo long.
It is an injustice TO the physician
and useless expense as we'll to call
him in after the patient is beyond
human aid.
One of the most valuable aids to
safety along this line is thermom-
eter for ascertainiHs the temperature
of the patient; and IL may bs safely
reckoned that temperature from any
cause that continues for any consider
able length of time as high as l02 OF
1903, denotes a serious condition. But
there are great many trivial matters
that may produce fever this high OF
only few hours duration.
In all cases of sickness try to keep
your head, but do not fail to recog-
| nize serious danger in the form OF
acute and unexplained illness when
it menaces yeu or your loved ones.

the sentiment in Mexico is hostile to
