DOCTORS' BLUNDERS. What Legal Methods Applied to Medical Practice Would Uncover. "Now that I am through with medicine I can speak of the profession in fashion that I would not if I was still in the practice," said a gentleman who has been known as a successful physician in New York for years as he sat at lunchcon in the Lawyers' club. "Of course I don't care to have my name mentioned, for I have lots of good friends in the profession, but the fact is that the profession of medicine would be nearly ruined if it had to be conducted as you gentlemen of the bar practice your calling. "We have a great advantage over you, for you in your cases are subjected to the extremest publicity, while we in our cases have the utmost concealment. Just suppose that in our cases we had a judge who knew as much as or more than we did presiding over our actions and, worse than that, had another physician, whose interests were not ours, watching and criticising us at every step and blazoning every error that we made. Dear me, such a prospect as that would frighten the best physician who ever lived the moment he entered a sick room, and yet that condition is just what you men of the law have to face in every case that you try. "What sort of a figure would a lawyer cut floundering around in court without any knowledge of his case? But a physician can flounder mentally in a sick room without a second person being the wiser, though the patient may suffer; but, then, 'dead men tell no tales.'" "Under such circumstances of doubt which is usually ignorance, the physician can look wise, put something into the patient's stomach, go to his office, decide what line of experiment he will follow, return the next day, hoping to find that nature is working the cure that he doesn't know how to effect, and being ready and willing to take all of the credit that comes his way. "Why, the very first thing that nurses are taught is to observe the utmost secrecy about doctors' blunders. If they told what they know there wouldn't be much confidence in physicians where they are heard. Ask a nurse of experience about this when you have the opportunity." "Yes, sir, I repeat that the publicity and chance for criticism in your profession, if applied to medicine, would result in the discovery of a small amount of science as compared with gold cannon balls." The Jungle Hidden Treasure of East Indian Princess. Not long ago an old peasant was wandering in the jungle about half a mile from the city of Ahmadnager, India, when he found a round ball of metal. It was black and looked like an old iron round shot, but when the old man lifted it he was struck with its immense weight. He carried it home and found on scratching it that it was a lump of solid gold. It weighed eight pounds and its sale made the finder rich for life. There are many more of these cannon balls, each worth a small fortune, lying hid or buried in the recesses of this jungle, and their story is a curious one. At the end of the sixteenth century Akbar, the greatest emperor Hindustan ever saw, was at the height of his glory. At the head of his conquering army he summoned Ahmadnager to surrender. The city and its rich treasure were then under the rule of the Princess Crude. Knowing that resistance could be but short, and in bitter rage against the oppressor, she caused all the treasure of gold and silver to be melted down. She cast the metal into cannon balls and engraved upon each maledictions against the conqueror. These were fired into the jungle and when Akbar entered the city, instead of the rich board he had hoped to win, he found a treasury absolutely empty. That this is not the only occasion upon which cannon balls of gold have been cast is proved by the fact that in the treasury of the shah of Persia there may be seen in the same room where stands the famous peacock throne two small globular projectiles of gold. They were estimated by a recent visitor to weigh about thirty-one pounds each and are roughly made. Their origin or purpose is, however, totally forgotten. It is only known that they are very old.—Chicago Chronicle.

Hutchin- LAURA KEENE'S DREAM. A Vision In Slumber That Was Turned Into a Reality. Stuart Robson used to tell a strange story of Laura Keene, with whom he played in the sixties in the last century. "The sight of a bottle of red ink was enough to upset her for a week," he said. "On one occasion we were playing a farce called 'The Lady and the Devil.' An important scene of it was when she was sitting at a table preparatory to writing a letter, I, as her servant, stood at the back of a chair. 'Take your right hand off that chair,' she whispered. The stage dialogue proceeded. 'You are sure you can find Don Rafael at his lodgings?' Yes, madam; his servant tells me his wounds will confine him to his bed for a week. 'Is this the only paper that we have? Where is the ink?' Here, madam. And I bent forward to place the ink within her reach, when, in my confusion at her reproof, the vessel was upset and its contents trickled on to the lap of her satin dress. The ink was blood red. I shall never forget the ghastly look that overspread her face, and I was so frightened that I never knew how the scene ended. "The next morning at rehearsal she told me I was doomed to ill luck for the remainder of my days. She called the company together and gave them a detailed description of the 'awful scene' the night before occasioned by the young man who would never make an actor. She told of a terrible dream she had had in which some great person had been foully murdered before her eyes; how she had attempted rescue without avail; how he had fallen dead at her feet, and how his blood slowly oozed into her lap. It was two years after this that Miss Keene was playing at Ford's theater, Washington, on the occasion when Abraham Lincoln was shot. Miss Keene was the only person who seemed to realize the situation. She ran to the box, and in a moment the head of the dying man was in her lap, while the scene of her death was being pitifully enacted." THE TOO EARLY BIRD.

"Dogs have their captains and commanders in the chase, and they follow their leaders in a way that shames the practices of men at times." said the man who is fond of the hunt. "It really I have often thought that man could profit a great deal by going to the dog for examples of virtuous conduct, and I'm still inclined to believe that his civic virtues would be strengthened somewhat by a closer observation of the good there is in the dog. 'Going to the dogs' is used in reproach. Living as some men live is infinitely worse. Some men have all the dog's faults without showing any of the dog's virtues. But I was thinking of the captains and commanders in the chase. Dogs pay each other fine courtesy if they are good dogs and well trained. The dog who would run ahead of the dog who is the accepted and acknowledged leader of the pack or who would show him the discouragement of crossing the line of pursuit ahead of him would be disgraced famned and shunned by its fellows The leader is to be followed. Dogs be bind him may be deter of foot. But he is the leader, and that settles it And, my, how sensitive some of these old dog leaders are! How jealous they are of their rights! I have seen them quit the chase because some greet member of the pack crowded in ahead of them. They would simply quit the trail, get in behind their master, and that would be the end of their frolicking that day. Dogs are great fellows when you come to know them."—New Orleans Times-Democrat.

The too early birds are a source of trouble and inconvenience to the entire neighborhood. Invite the too early birds to a dinner, and they arrive an hour before the time. Your last little touches have to be delegated to the first amiable soul who appreciates the misery of entertaining the too early birds. You had intended to replace a vase of carnations with one of roses or possibly you had at the last moment intended to shift the plate cards, having suddenly remembered that Miss Jones had a quiet fancy for Mr. Smith; that Mr. Smith reciprocated. Mr. Smith will have to wonder, and Miss Jones will have to summon up her presence of mind and conceal her dis appointment. The too early birds must be greeted as though you were glad to see them and appreciated their apparent impatience to have the fun begin. You really would like to give your hair another touch, but not so. Your guests await you. The too early birds haunt the railway stations hours before the train leaves and start off on the journey jaded and out of sorts. If the too early birds are ever amiable it is at such a "previous" hour that the rest of mankind is elsewhere, and the fact is not generally appreciated. If there is one class of humanity more exasperating than the too early birds I have yet to meet them. The man who is too late may entail inconvenience, but at least you have the satisfaction of noting his discomfiture after missing the treat through his own act. The too early birds are an infliction and they carry with them no compense reflection whatever.—Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.

H. Hatzfeld's. The Fountain of Youth. Like pretty much everything else, his matter of having children has two sides to it. As a great many children are failures and at children are the joint product of herelity and environment, both elements preponderantly under parental control. It would seem more sensible to say that there were too many people undertaking parental responsibility instead of too few. And further, parenthood has many cares and sorrows and suspensions. Still, when all is said, how many persons who have found themselves childless at forty-five have been able honestly to congratulate themselves? Children have a life as an assurance against destitution and loneliness in old age. They are satisfactory to the capacity for family immortality. But more than these and all other advantages is the advantage of prolonging one's life. Growing children will keep any proper man or woman young in spirit and in mind, will retard the development of that sour yet complacentynism which curries old age both for oneself and for those about one. The man or woman—again, the eight sort of man or woman—who has children drinks every day a deep draft at the fountain of eternal youth.—Saturday Evening Post. The Dammavas of Africa. In Galton's "Tropical South Africa" it is stated that the Dammaras use no term beyond three and that when they wish to express four they take to their fingers. Beyond five they cannot count at all. It is seldom, however, that they lose in a bargain through their inability to count. When bartering, each sheep or ox or whatever they may be selling must be paid for separately. If this rate of exchange were at the rate of two sticks of tobacco for one sheep it would greatly puzzle a Dammara to accept four sticks for two sheep. Galton says that he several times paid them in that way and that the Dammara forthwith set aside two sticks for one of the sheep, and even when he found that he had two sticks left for the other sheep he still had his doubts as to the genuineness of the transaction and was not satisfied until two sticks were put into his hand and one sheep driven away and then another two sticks given to him for the other sheep.

Spring St., Los Angeles, Cal. Night Air. One of the bugbears of old time people is night air, and there is little aggregation in saying that the superstition against night air has killed more people than the free circulation of it has ever injured. There is abundance of proof that night air is injurious to no one. On the contrary, people who sleep outdoors under the mere protection of a tent are the healthiest of all people, and the practice has largely gained in popularity of late years under wider knowledge of hygiene for people in delicate health to go in camping parties and breathe the balam sum of the night air. The vigor gained from a few weeks of such an outing is a marked proof that the old prejudice against night air is as foolish as most other old wives' whims.—Exchange. Read With Ease.

The City of Anaheim, with a population of 2500, is situated in the northern part of Orange county, in Southern California, 12 miles from the ocean, 4½ miles from the foothills, and 148½ feet above sea level. It is 27 miles from Los Angeles, the second largest city in the State of California. The climatic conditions are the most favorable for outdoor life to be found in Southern California. The temperature is extremely uniform, seldom rising above 90 degrees in summer, or falling below 32 degrees in winter. The abundance of sunlight and the absence of sharp frosts and cold winds make it a place especially acceptable to those desiring to escape the severe climate of the east. The country is very attractive. It is practically level, with just sufficient slope from the hills to afford THE KING COBRA. It Is Considered the Most Dangerous of All the Snake Family. Snakes, venomous snakes, may be divided into two classes, the cobras and the viperoids. The cobras, inhabitants of distant India, form a class apart. To the viperoids belong all other venomous species, including our own splendid rattler, the moccasin, the fer de lance of the West Indies and the deadly bushmaster of Venezuela and the Guianas. Diametrically opposite, though equally fatal, are the effects of the cobra and the viperoid poison. Diametrically opposite, also, are the two methods of attack. The cobra at times is aggressive, the king cobra being said even to prune man. Silent, without the least warning and from a place where you would least suspect, the round head starts out of a thicket, a sharp pain causes you to exclaim, and the frightful fangs of the snake are buried in your flesh. Like the grip of a bulldog they hold fast, while from five to ten feet of animated cable come stretching-out of the thicket to coll leisurely beneath the dread head. For this eternal hold on the victim there is a natural reason. The fangs of the ten foot cobra are but a third of an inch long. It is impossible, therefore, to squirt the venom deep in a single stroke. In order to give the venom time to absorb the snake must retain its hold. The fatal poison contains about 95 per cent of nerve destroying and about 5 per cent of blood destroying elements. Within five minutes the pain leaves the wound, and even the shock of the attack begins to wear off. There is little suffering, nor will there be to the relentless end. Only if by chance the bite is one from a small snake or if a fresh supply of antitoxin happens to be at hand there a chance for your life. If one recovers from the immediate effects within a week one is as healthy as ever. While the poison of the cobra often kills within an hour, there have been cases where the "strike" of a rattlesnake and a bushmaster have caused death within ten minutes. Naturalists accept however that the king cobra, owing to its great size and the consequent quantity and quality of poison emitted, is the most dangerous of all the snakes. — McClure's Grim Signa Rain during a burial is considered an excellent "sign" throughout the West Indian islands.

It is practically level, with just sufficient slope from the hills to afford adequate drainage. The roads are level, well graded, and well kept, affording excellent opportunities for cycling and driving. The soil is a rich sandy loam which never bakes, making it a very easy ground to work; thus lending itself readily to the cultivation of berries, nuts, oranges, etc. The variety of products, and the possibility of procuring small tracts of land at low figures, and on easy terms, make our section of the county very attractive and advantageous for truck raising, or for farming on a small scale. The following are a few of the products: oranges, lemons, walnuts, grapes, peaches, apricots, sugar beets, berries and vegetables of all kinds. Anaheim is the possessor of a Building and Loan Association, Water company, two railroads, fruit cannery and drier, large oil industry; ostrich farm, bank, several adequate commercial houses, two hotels and two newspapers. The city also owns its water and lighting plant. FACTS ABOUT ORANGE CO. The census bureau has issued a bulletin on agriculture in California which we quote from extensively in another part of this issue. One of the interesting features of the report is the paragraph giving the number of farms and acres of farming lands in the five Southern California counties. The pre-eminence of Orange county is apparent: Counties. No farms. Acres. Los Angeles . 6577 880,963 Orange . 2288 309,493 Riverside . 2400 427,097 San Bernardino . 2550 219,132 San Diego . 2698 809,419 But it is in the acreage of irrigated lands that Orange county takes easy precedence over the other counties of Southern California: Counties. Acres. Los Angeles . 854,644 Orange . 41,046 Riverside . 32,947 San Bernardino . 37,877 San Diego . 16,022 The area of Orange county is 780 square miles; that of Los Angeles, 880; that of Riverside, 7008; that of San Bernardino, 20055, and that of San Diego, 8400 square miles. Orange county thus contains one healthy as ever.
