accumulated little money she went
to Antioch College. Ohio, then under
the presidency of Horace Mann. Leav-
ing Antioch College, she went to New
York to study medicine. 1t was diff
cult to find medical college at that
time which admitted women, but she
finally found course of instruction
open to her in a ro-therapeutic in
stitute. Having received a certificate
from that institution. she decided TO
engage in her professional career in
San Francisco. She crossed IN" lSth-
mus of Panama, with slow boats on
each side. in 1858. long before the open
ing of a transcontinenta1 railway. She

marked success for twenty years

of 1878. and spent the spring. summer
and part of the autumn in studying in

turning from Europe, she entered the
medical department of the University

received the degree of doctor of medl-
cine in the spring of 1879. Returning
then to San Francisco. she resumed the
pra ctice of medicine for the rest of her
active career, except during the year

with her son, who was just completing
his course in architecture in the Ecoie
des Beaux Arts. Returning again TO
San Francisco. she resumed the practice
of medicine until the great earthquake

live with her son. Harvey Wiley Cor
bett. in New York city.
It fell to Dr. Corbett's lot to take
charge of baby Harvey Wiley at his
birth. by reason of the illness OF MS
mother. She was very proud of this
chapter in her history, and by reason Of
her success with primitive nutrltonal
appliances claimed to be the foster
mother of the pure food law.
DR.. Corbett began her professional
career when the woman physician was
practically unknown. The two asso-
ciated woman physicians of her time
were Emily and Elizabeth Blackwell.
sisters of Henry B. Blackwell, the nus
band of Lucy Stone.

several years ago. DR.. Corhett was
elected honorary life member of the

LEAP YEAR DANCE.


Quite the smartest party of the
winter season was given last
evening at the K. of G. hall by
the ladies of the younger set, who
sent out charming little invita-
tons last week to the young men,
Inviting them to leap-year
dance.
At 9 o'clock the doors were
thrown open on the scene of fes-
tivity and with fun and frolic the
enthusiastic merrymakers started
their evenings pleasure by form
ing in grand march, led by Miss
Mabel Rosenbaum and Mr.. Ben
Fanger. The hall was most elab-
|orately trimmed in red and white.
A cozy corner was prettily ar
ranged on the stage back Of the
musicians, where rugs covered
the floor, settles with pillows be-
ling placed conveniently in the
corners and two "rummy' tables
held sway At the front Of the
stage lattice work Of red crepe
paper made an enclosure and fin
Iished a neat little den, while in
front of this were stationed huge
green palms. Several large bou-
quets of red and white carnations
were used to carry out the beau
tiful effect of this artistic work
The larger room was also ar
ranged in gala dress, with long
lstreamers of red crepe paper
reaching from the center to the
corners, while shirred red paper
drops were hung from the white
| globes, with the smaller lights
covered with neat little shades.
An immense cut glass punch bowl
was placed in the southeast cor
ner and presided over by Emmett
Hearn, where the thirsty crowd
lpartook Of this wonderful hector
| fit for a king.
Coming in from the wintry
might this presented real sum-
lmer-like appearance, with the fair
maidens clothed in pretty gowns,
making a most beautiful picture
Ito the eye. A neat little program
| of twenty dances was given to
each guest at the door, the young
Iladies doing the stunt of asking
for partners. The gentlemen were
very generously allowed four
dances Of their own choice. The
features of the evening were
three circle two steps, which en-
llivened every one present and
were encored many times; two
flower dances, one red and the
Iother white, being unique and
|cleverly carried out by the guests,
land last but not least, heart
dance. Small red hearts were
ldissected and given the company
Ito find partners by matching.
