liad told him of results in his sectionwhere physicians of all schools hadjoined in the work of uplifting the pro-

fession. h was urged in some <jnarters that doctors could not afford tobuy the instrument' and appliancesneeded to keep up with their advancedkn"wledge. and most .f them wouldt’md themselves too poor to practiceI his was probably true of most doc-

tors throughout the country. Theprofessional classes had fell the rise inthe cost of living without a correspond-ing rise n fee - Ihe speaker cited arich lay man who sail! he could affordand wa* w illing to endow his physician.r give him a regular salary Hu* plan"i a County Medical Collector to lookJitter doctors’ fees had been suggested:md would he welcomed In plain pco-

pl< and wage-earners generally, whoprefer to pay as they go rather thanincur large bills \* :t relief for doc-tor'. unnecessary night practice shouldhe broken up. Most of these calls arecruelly needless, and for them hus-band' are largely responsible. Dr.Mart orniack sahl he had married oneof the he 't and handsome*! women inKentucky and had tried to live withher, hut his patients tried to preventhtu ll lound the plan of double feesfor n ght calls and stiffer rates forSunday visit* worked well in his case.He hi<l told a Ir.dy patron that shewould find him a much better doctor atS oditck, when wide awake, than aftermidnight. when half asleep
