Sup- pose I show you some.’ “ ‘All right,’ the tonmster said. "So the halmrdnslwr exhibited the best stockings he had in his Shop, and tin;- otlwx' selected :1 lino pair, saying: “‘I summsu you (lun’t mind making Wliirlcrs‘ out of tllmn for 1110'.” ern surgeon would have been denounc- ed by the theologians, who then ruled ;mankind, as audacious intrusions into 5 the exclusive jurisdiction of God. Two 3 centuries ago, or, at the furthest, three, the man of science who would take out the viscera of a man, cut out their disease and put them back would have been fortunate to escape the ! stake or the block. But the audacious invader or the secrets of the body, the ' beneflcent healer who, with his vial ; or his knife, lessens the miseries of humanity, diminishes or destroys pain, prolongs lite and smooths its pathway to the graveâ€"this is now the man who appeals most strongly to his fellow beings. For him and his training the ? captains of industry are pouring out their millions, building him colleges and laboratories, endowing professor- -ships, while the world at large hails him as a man of power and influence at a time when wealth is accumulating and when men are not decaying. More and more, very likely, we shall see the strong men of the’ college classes choosing medicine, although the time has not yet come for domination over the lawyer, who is now engaged in settling the direction and the form in which the captains of industry shall carry on their development of the world’s wealth. The time seems to be coming, however, when the indefinite prolongation of human life and the de- struction of the enemies of human health, a work which almost suggests the creative wer, will be the task that will ca for and will receive the service of the best training of our colâ€" leges and universitiesâ€"that is, when the appeal of medicine and surgery will be addressed inevitably to the best in every college class, just as once the call came from the ministry and then from the bench and bar and sen- ate house. And the Incident From Which It In Said They Got Their Nume. “There was a dealer in haberdash- cry,” said a college professor, “to Whom I teamster once came and said, ‘I want to get a pair of \Vhil‘lOX'S, sir.’ « “ 'Not at all.’ rotortcd the other, and with a pair of shears he cut the feet off the stockings. “‘Fifig'twnns? VVhy, I never pan] more than 10 cent: anywhere] said the tmuustcr, and he smiled meaningly and made as if to depart. “Hold .on!’ the haberdashcr cried. ‘Don‘t leave me in a lurch like this. The price of those stockings is 50 cents.’ “â€"‘Whii'lers?’ said the haberdasher. ‘What on earth are whirlers? “\‘ow ,’ said the teznustel'. ‘how mUch are the"? ' u ‘I‘ifty cents. the 31110 as before. 01 co zrso.’ I “‘Well, take them, then. You’ve done me. Take your whirlers,’ said the haberdashcr. “ ‘They’re whirlers. not stockings, now,’ the other said. “And since that time,” the professor concluded, "whirlors has been the name for stuckiugs without feet.” A Cold Blooded Gambler. The French court was at one time a hotbed of gambling. Louis XIV. would play for heavy stakes night after night. and many courtiers were ruined at his table. His successor. who lacked his predecessor's geniality and good na- ture, was an even greater devotee of the card table. The story is told that when this king was playing one even- ing a gentleuk| present was seized with apoplexy M. de Chauveiin is 111,” one of the courtiers ventured to tell Louis. “111!” said the king, quite unmoved. “He is dead. Take. him away. Spades are trumps, gentlemen.” Instincts That Lead to Death. Professor Mlvart proved that there are “instincts” that lead to death by failing to adapt themselves to a change of circumstances. Migratory quail by thousands perish in the deserts of northern Africa, where their ancestors used to find a comfortable winter re- sort. abounding with forests and even with grain fields, it we shall credit Pliny’s account or the Numldian coast lands.

Mine is a sad case. For three long years my wife suffered from consumption, of which she finally died, leaving me alone to raise a family of children, one only five years old. My daughter, Paulina, who nursed her during her long illness, was my only hope, as she took charge of my home, and now the hand of disease has fallen upon her. Her physicians have pronounced it a case of consumption, and advise an immediate removal to the Sanatorium. I am only a poor man, dependent on my daily wage, and the long and heavy expenses of my wife’s illness have so depleted my resources that I cannot possibly pay the expenses in an expensive sanatorium, though I would be _glad to do so were it in my power. Can you not receive her into your Free Hospital, and so snatch a young life from the wasting sufferings of so terrible a disease 2 The doctors consider her case a curable one at this stage, but delays would be dangerous.
