Prof. Bergmann, the great German specialist, kas been summoned to Con- stantinople, to the siltan's daughter, 'who is suffering "from ndicitis; this is one more illustration of the desperate and costly measures adopt: ed in the case of serious illness, In England doctors rarely .make ex: orbitant charges far going any distance he soe their min inea a mile is supposed to a ir average charge, with an Sxlinarys fee at the end of it; and several well: known surgeons are content: to visit cases 100 miles away, on a line with reasonably fast and regular trains, for forty guincus and their oidinary fee, It is quite possible to combine several cases in a district, Sir Frederick Troves used to send cases to Westgate, and pay an occasional combined visit to them, and at places like East: bourne and Torquay every consulting physician has several patients who welcome a visit, x Specialists of world-wide fame, like Prof. Pagentecker, the German oculist, lose such large sums by two days' absence that they must perforce charge more. Dr. Pagentocker has more than once received a fee of 1,000 guineas for coming to England. French surgeons dislike leaving Paris, and charge exorbitantly for do ing so. A famous living surgeon re- cently charged £800 for 'going from Parid to Biarrite (a {ed hours' jour ney) to perform a long, but simple, operation; and a well-known Paris la- dies' doctor refused « an offer of the same fee to go to Nice, An American lady, who became suddenly ill at Cherbourg, and was visited twice a week for a month by a Paris su : was horrified to receive a hill for £4,. 000, On one ocension when the late Cecil Rhodes was ill in South Afvioa, an English doctor "treated" him by cable, every symptom and change be ing carefully telegranhed to London, and instructions sent back. -------------- A Rare Find.
