The Century From the middle of the last cent- ury the women of Russia have assert- ed their eagerness for professional training. Teaching, surgery, medi- cine and government service have at- tracted the greatest number. When the medical schools were closed to them they went to Switzer- land and other foreign countries. A Russian girl took a doctor's degree at Zurich in 1867, In the early 70's the admission of women to medical courses became a settled practice in Russia. \ In 1876 women surgeons in num- bers distinguished themselves at the front in the Serbian-Turkish war; the same distinguished service has been given by them in the Russo-Japanese war and in the present conflict, To- day women physiciafis are as promin- ent as men, and in some cities there are many mere female thap male dentists. More than 62 per cent. of the teach- ers in the zemstvo schools are women, and the census of 1897 showed - that there were four women to every five men in the state and public service, ITALY TO FIX BGG PRICE Municipal Authorities of Milan Make Big Seizure Rome, Oe¢t, 23.--The municipal au- thorities at Milan have seized 100 cars containing 15,000,000 eggs as the result of a campaign to prevent speculation.
