DOCTORS AND SUICIDE.
Btatlitloa Hhow a Peon liar Boad ef gym
path UetWMB the Two.
During the 1 tat three years, aajs Tbe
Medic al uud 'ngical Reporter of Pliil
ailelphia, iiea'ly oue-flftietb of all
deaths among physicians have been by
suieide. This is a conservative estimate,
as ninny instances of death are attribut
ed to accidental overdosing, as tbe tend
ency is alw ays to bush np a suicide
whenever possible. But without iuelod
iiir such coses, the fact remains that
the medical profession is more prone to
suicide than any other. These statistics
may tie explained by tbe developnieut
of morbid fancies in the mind of a doc
tor ou account of his constant associa
tion with (he sick and dying, or of an
actual iudiffereuce to death, or because
he has the requisite knowledge of bow
to die con ven ion tly and painlessly.
Poisoning is a favorite method, bat
it does uot appear from statistics that
tbe cyanides or morphine have the pref
erence which would exist If epicurean
philosophy were carried into the choice
of drugs. At the same time, physicians
usually put their knowledge of drugs to
a practical execution iu selecting a poi
son for suicide. But if the mere knowl
edge of the painlessness of death by cer
tain means is uot a duterminiug factor
in lending so many physicians to sui
cide, probably tho accessibility of pol
hous is.
Kuicide is largely a matter of insane,
impulse, and such au impulse can often
bo ascertained even in the case of those
who have lung been indifferent to life
and have contemplated suicide. If a
man must put on his hat and overcoat,
walk to a drug store and tax his Inge
nuity for a lie with which to explain his
desire for poison, he may postpone the
fatal act from mere inertia, or he may
meet a friend or have his interest in life
aroused by one of a multitude of every
day occurrences or physical exerciso may
bring him to his senses. If, as is the
ease with almost every doctor, he has
simply to feel iu his pocket or walk
across his office to set a deadly poison,
the iiiipui.se may be carried into execu
tion before uuythiugcan happen to sup
plant it iu tbe braiu.

A teachers' examination was held at

"What is appendicitis, and what are its
causes and cures?" Below are given a
few of tho answers as reported in the
Seneca Tribune:
"It is a disease of tbe app)idix,
which i.s located eomowhere between
tin' liver and tho heart, the organ of the
affections. "
"Cosi Mention of tho marrow of the

"Appendicitis is sunstroke or over

cure is to get the patient Into a cool
place, bathe tho face and hand with
water. "
"Is the disease of appendice, caused
by want of eiereise, improper food,
clothing and ventilation."
"Appendioitis is a condition caused
by food substances lodging and causing

It is cured by surgical operation, in
which the obstruction is cot sway. A

bat be was always cheerful whether a
winner or a loser. One day Mike went
over to Qutleuberg, vaw the hlllunp
track was flourishing, and after two
races bad been run be bad just $20 and
enough change with Which to get back
to tbe eity. As Kel walked Into the
betting ring preparatory to tbe third
race be saw on Bookmaker Ike Thomp
San's elate:
Play or Per ao to I

"I've got a system, me boy," said
the "king" to a friend, "and it's a peach
I'm going to pot a fiver on each o' them
plugs, and then I can't lose, see? I got
to get some dough back, no matter bow
they inn. "
"That's no system. Mike, " said Kel s
friend.
"It's as good as tbe average, sport,"
was the quick retort, and Mike pushed
his way up to Thompson's book.
"Say, there, Ike, old boy!" yelled
Mike. "Here's four green fivers Put
one on each of them ponies, keep tbe
onange, ana gimme tne tickets quick.
Tbe bookmaker laughed as be handed
Kel four tickets, each calling for Play
or Pay 800 to S, Meadows 160 to 6,
Blltzen 6 to 6, Hoey 4 to 6 respective
ir-
"That's quite a chance you're taking,
Mike," said Thompson, with a laugh.
"It Is, if one o' them long guys comes
welkin in with the yellow boys in bis
stockin, " replied tbe ball player.
Then tbe bell rang telling the crowd
that the horses were at tbe post.
"They're off!" yelled Kelly, as Start
er Caldwell dropped his flag. "What's
that guy away out in front, running us
if he saw a square meal somewhere?"
"It's Play or Pay I" screamed hun
dreds And so it proved to be. The
horse bad been tbe recipient of one of
those celebrated Gutteuberg injections,
and he won In a romp.
Kelly never ran bases faster than he
rau up to Ike Thompson's book, brand
ishing his ticket colling for $806.
"(Jive ns the green goods, Ike!" he
roared, while the crowd gathered
around breathlessly.
"There's your money," said Thomp
son pleasantly, as he took a big roll of
bills from tho cashier Kelly didu'tstop
to count it, but mado a rush fur the bur
room, crying out:
"If there's dust in any guy's throat
around here, let him come iu with me
and wash it out Everybody havo a
drink!" Tho bar looked like a burgain
counter as the sports lined up They
called for everything from wiuo to
cigarettes, and when all bad had enough
Kel said to the driuk mixer:
"How ruuoh, sport?"
"Fifteen dollars, Kel!"
"Thero's twenty. Have a bot your
self I"
"Say, Mr. Kelly," whispered a tout,
"could you stake me to a few bucks?
I've, got a cinoh. "
"There's ten of them, me boy. Go
and break up the betting ring," was
Kelly's response as he forked out a ft 1 0
bill. Other impecunious persons suc
cessfully "touched" Jiini for various
amounts until Mike decided to plunge
again. Qolng up to a bookmaker who
had 100 to 1 against the borse Duke
John, Mike cried out, "I'll put a hun
dred on that ono I" aud quickly produced
a century, for which he received a tick
et calling for 1 0.000 to f 100.
"If Duke John wins," said Mike,
"I'll buy the track." Duke John was
last in a field of 13, but Kelly only
laughed. And so he continued to specu
late uutil tbe races were over. Then he
had a $10 bill and some change. He
paid tbe car and ferry fares of at leust
60 unfortunates, loaned 60 cents here
and a quarter there, and by the time he
left the boat at the foot of Forty second
street he had a few pennies over $5. As
Kelly crossed Tenth avenoo bo caught
sight of a little girl about 8 years old
who was crying as if her heart would
break. He picked her up in bis arms
and said gently:
"What's tbe matter, little one?"
"Mamma's sick in bed and I'm hun
gry," sobbed the little girL Kel gulped
down a lump In his throat, put tbe
child on the sidewalk, pressed $6 Into
her hand and said soothingly:
"There, give that to your mother, lit
tle ooe, and may God bless you.
"Come on, sport, " Kel said to his
friend then. "We're broke, but let's
bunt up some mare green goods. " He
soon borrowed $60 from his namesake,
Honest John Kelly. That was at 7
o'clock In tbe evening. At II o'olock
that same nlgbt he had won $1,000 at
faro. Tbe next day be caught the noon

There is a cure f r this destructive
disease, though no doctor has ever ct
cured it. Of course they tnav pronounce
a patient cured, hut the disease has
never failed to return, with increased
severity. S.S.S. (Swilt's Specific) is a
permanent cure, and is the only remedy
free from harmful ingredients. It is
the only blood remedy which is nanni-
teed purely ve-taMe,
and for twenty years
its proprietors have
offered one thousand
dollars reward for
proof that it contains
a particle of potash,
mercury or other min
eral ingredient. .

' a well-known young
man residing at
MAV Staunton, Va.. tried
various other treat-ments but found no
relief until he took S.S.S. He writes:
"I was afflicted with blood poison
and the best doctors did me no
good, though I took their treatment
faithfully. In fact I seemed to get
worse all the while. I took almost every
so-called blood remedy, but they did
not seem to reach the disease and had
no effect whatever. I was disheartened
for it seemed that I would never be
cured. At the advice of a friend I then
took S.S.S. aud began to improve, i
continued the medicine and it cured me
completely, building up my health and
increasing my appetite. Although this
was ten years ago, I have never yet had
sign of the disease to return.
Mr. E. h. Hite,
also of Staunton, had
the same disease.and
his experience was
similar to the above.
He says :
"S. S. S. is cer- &
tainly far ahead of JjJt' -all
other blood rem-7
edies, for it cures' V
cases they cannot
touch. T waqtreatpd
by several good doc-
tors and took various blood remedies,
but they did me no good. I then took
S. S. S. and was cured c mpietely and
permanently, for I have never been
troubled with the disease since. I have
recommended S. S. S. to others simi
larly afflicted, and have never known it
to fail."
S. S. S. is the ri;;ht remedy for Conta
gious Jllooa J'oison, because U goes di
rect to the seat of the disease ami forces
it from the systtui. It will cure any
case of Cancer, Scrofula, Rheumatism,
Eczema, Catarrh or other blood disease
of the most obstinate nature. Remem
ber it is guaranteed
Purely Vegetable
and is the only Mood reme ly containing
no mercury, potash or othi'r mineral.
Valuable books on the disease and i;.s
treatment will be mailed free to all who
address the Swift Specific Company,
