At 'tbs Bessidfi of the American Medical Association held In Atlantic City In June, Dr. M. Clavton Thrush, a professor In the Medico Chirurgical .College in Philadelphia said: Many doctors turned out of the Medical Schools are so Ignoiant, In matters peitaimng to pharmacy that thev know nothing about the properties of the drugs they pi escribe for their patients!" Dr. Uenrv Beats, Jr., President of the Pennsylvania State Board of Medical Examiners, aftrr scrutinizing the papeis of a class of candidates for licensure said bout one quarter of the papeis show a degree of Illiteracy that venders the candidates for licensure Incapable of understanding medicine. A great many more physicians and chemists might be quoted in support of the astounding charge that 3,000 Incompetents are being dumped onto an unsuspecting public each year. What the damage done amounts to can never be estimated for these in competents enjoy the privilege of diagnosing, prescribing or dispensing drugs regarding the properties of which they know nothing and then of signing death certificates that are not. passed upon by anyone unless the coroner is called In. Probably there is not a grave yard fr6m one end of the country to the other that does not contain the buried evidences of the mistakes or criminal carelessness of incompetent physicians. During the last year there have been perhaps, half a dozen known cases where surgeons, after performing operations have sewed up the without first removing the gauze sHinges used to absorb the blood, and In some cases forceps and even surgeon's scissors have been How many of left In the wound these cases there have been, where the patient died, there Is no means ot knowing and comparatively few of the cases where the discovery Is made In time to save life become generally public. Reports from Sanitariums for the treatment of the Drug Habit show- - that members of the medical profession are more often treated in these Institutions than members of any other profession, and that a majority of the patients, excluding the can trace themselves, physicians their downfall directly to a careless physician. How many criminal operations are performed by physicians Is also a matter of conjecture Operations of this class are. unfortunately, very frequent In large cities Some graduated and licensed physicians, many of them of supposed respectability, make an exclusive practice of criminal medical and surgical treatment Dr. Henry O. W. RhelnharL Coroners physician of Chicago, estimates tha number of crimiilal operations, annu-alllin Chicago alone at 38,000. How many resulted fatally are unknown, as when death results, the real cause is disguised tn the death certificate, which the physician sign, and which no one but himself and a clerk sees.

Likewise the cd'jL-crin- b fell on the date of his month-tdebating society and he This posjiausei) by its allurements sibly explains why he had reached the age of 32 before he really took a comprehensive look at Adeline Simpson. The yeais during which Adeline had fluttered and shou in the dances and parties attended by all the young folks James Orvls had lived unknowing because lie had been otherwise engaged, having seen at last how amazingly different she was from all other young women, Orvls found that he was suffering from a chronic convulsion of the heart, which totally upset him, methodical as he was. "1 suppose, he said to himself, after three cigars and a period of fierce concentration, "I am in love Come to think of it, It is remarkable that I haven t fallen in love befoie On the other hand, it isn't, either, because as things have turned out 1 couldn't fall in love till 1 found the right girl and. of rnui so. Addle Is the right girl. I wonder whether she would like a trip to Japan better than a trip to Europe for a wedding journey. All of which shows how Innocent of the ways of women Janies Orvls was. For he had called on Adeline only three times and she was supposedly Ignorant of the trend of his emotions. That he was in love with her was sufficient for him he was going to marry her, naturally, and It never occurred to him that she might have different ideas. ( Methodically he set about revealing to her hia state of mind. Wednesday evenings he called with a box of.candy. Friday nights he Invited her to attend the theater. Sunday afternoons he always came with an automobile to take her riding The first t(ie he found another caller there on his Wednesday evening he was surprised. When, the second Sunday after, he pulled up in front of Adelines home just as she and a disgustingly handsome Individual were starting away In an electric runabout, Orvls went home In a real rage. "How was I to know you were coming?" Adeline inquired In some Indignation when Orvls took her to task. "But," Insisted the still perturbed Orvis, "it has been my habit for so long that I thought of course you'd know!" "I don't take things for granted!" flashed the stubborn Miss Simpson, giving her admirer food for thought. He had planned how he should propose to her. After pursuing his Wednesday, Friday and Sunday plan for six months he intended on a Wednesday evening, over the box of candy, first to Inform her of his business prospects, next that the We insurance doctor said he was good for SO years, then of the suburban house he had bought as an Investment some time before. Finally he would inquire if she would be his wife. Never to this day can he understand how It happened that on a Monday morning downtown In a pouring rain he should have been swept by an injane rebellion at the' sight of Adeline under the tenderly protecting umbrel la of the handsome unknown of the electric runabout. The expression of the unknown's face wag positively asinine. In the opinion of James Orvis, who by a brutally rude coup swept Adeline away into a cafe and, over food to which him might have been sawdust, exploded Into a beautifully u n m e t h o dical. jpalous rage, lm-0 r Ing passion and beseeching declaration He was trembling In amazement new and strange James Orvis who never before had acted without his couise ' My goodness" Adeline breathed when the storm had suhsldtd I never had the slightest intuntj.,n nf -te ,i I 1.. marrying vou JinniV ald yes' I didn't krmi n,i had It o, you to he human you w o s t, i denlngly methodical, ahvav , . thpre Is a chanee of re'orjj.'rg "Well, may be I need it ' p. i j the chastened anl haj O ago Daily News ; 11 two-poun- d 1 at-thi- s h-- , 1 |
