The Profession Considered from
man Standpoint.
At the annual meeting of the assem
bly of German naturalists and phy
sicians, Professor Waldeyer delivered
an address upon the “Practice of Medi
cine by Women,” reported in LaSe-
maine Medicale for Sept. 26, 1888. He
endeavored to clear himself from
any accusations of unfairness or
prejudice by referring in compli
mentary terms to the talented
women who taught in the. school
of Salernum — to Louise Bour
geois, Marguerite de la Manche, Marie
Louise Lacliapelle and many others
eminent in the practice of midwifery.
He also admitted that for many cen
turies the healing art had been in the
hands of women and that they had
made valuable contributions to the
literature of medicine. He believed
that women should hold a position on
a level with that of men, as their func
tions and attributes were as necessary
to the existence and maintenance of
the human species a$ those of men,
but that their vocation should be the
rearing and fostering of children.
This vocation rendered them every
where and always tho equals of men.
Since the number of marriages was
diminishing every year they had nec
essarily been driven into seeking other
duties. Their entrance into medi
cine, however desirable it might seem
to them, menaced not only their inter
ests but those of humanity at large.
Although their opportunities had been
abundant, they had never advanced
medical science.
Midwifery, for example, which for
many centuries had been almo.il ex-
rear in advance will receive the
f?'
clusively in their hands, had made no
progress until it was taken up by men.
They acquired great manual dexterity
in the art, but little else. Women had
never in any art created a masterpiece;
even in music, which seemed properly
to beioug to them, they had done
nothing that might immortalize a
name. Their presences in colleges de
voted to the instruction of men was a
hindrance to the teachers and students.
In laboratories they were unwelcome,
as they were awkward and careless,
the smallest difficulty discouraging
iry subscriber who pays up their subscription I them, and the assistants complained
• Jr j ir ir of women students who besieged them
: t / bi • n I with inquiries upon trivial matters.
Charcot, at whose Clinics and lectures
a large number of women, attended,
was quoted as saying that women
thought more of themselves than they
did of humanity; they consented un-
_ m | williugly to be dressers in the hospitals
and to carry out antiseptic treatment
—occupations for which they would
appear to be well suited. They were
too ambitious and aspired to the frout
rank and to the most prominent po
sitions.
As nature had barred their way to
....... roles which they ought to fill, Wal-

mer Price Drawing. At that time we will give away Notwithstanding this opinion, he gave
0 u " ■ them credit, curiously enough, for
their excellent memories, their close
attention to lectures, and their fre
quent ability to pass better examina
tions than men. Professor Waldeyer
concluded*by stating that if man was
fitted to take the initiative for the pit>-
ductiou of new ideas, if he had more
sequence in his actious and his plans,
woman, on the other hand, was more
clearly endowed with other qualities
not less precious. It Was tlicrfoie in
the interest of humanity that he wish
ed that medicine might remain in the
hands of men.

An ElcpluiHfs Memory.
A circus traveling through the country
parts of England stopped one day at a
little -town called Ilythe. That night
when everything was quiet in the tent,
animals and employes all being sound
asleep, Clytie, one of the. elephants, de
liberately and without any uproar, broke
the chain that fastened her foot, aasd
leaving the tent started toward the center
of the town. Nobody was astir, and so
she had the way all to herself.
She proceeded without delay or hesi
tation to a little shop that stood on the ;
main street of the village, and finding it
closed, of course, she immediately
forced an entrance with her enormous
head and was soon as busy an
elephant as you ever' saw cramming
candy and cakes down her capacious
throat. The inan who owned the shop
came running in. from : the back room,
but Clytie did not pauso in her lunch on
that account, nor did she pay any more
attention when he ran out again crying,
“Owl Ow!” In fact, she totally disre
garded the entire neighborhood when
they took up that cry of “Ow! Ow!”
But pretty soon a little man came lip,
who cried out in a sharp voice:
1 “Hi, there, Clytie! What d’ye mean?
Come out o’ that now, d’ye hear!”
And Clytie did come out, and in a
great hurry, too, for the little man. was
her keeper, and she not only had a great
deal of respect for him, but she was
afraid of him, as well. But, after all,
she didn’t care much about it, for she
had tilled herself with candy and cakes,
and that was all she was after.
! The most puzzling question was—how
did she distinguish a candy shop from
any other shop in the village? The shop
man gave tho answer to this himself—he
had fed an elephant candy at that very
shop twelve years before, and inquiry
developed the fact that Clytie was that
elephant. She had remembered the shop

The Old Indian Fighter’s Story.
In the northern part of this state lives
an old farmer, honest and upright in
business matters, but notorious for the
incredible stories of liis own prowess,
which he relates upon every occasion. A
short time since, in company with a few
personal friends who thoroughly under
stood his weakness, he began the rela
tion of a. thrilling Indian story, which
was alleged to have taken place while
crossing tho plains in 1851.
“You see, them Injuns had been fol-
lerin’ me atul my partner for four days,”
he continued, “an’ our cattle wuz nigh
give out.”
“Now, Bob!” said one of his hearers by
way of a warning not to presume too
much upon their credulity.
“An’ thar they come,” he continued,
ignoring the interruption, “jest over a
little raise ’bout two miles off. We lit
out afoot for all wo wuz worth, an’ them
right after us a horseback.”
“Now, Bob!”
“We come to the river, but it was a
roarin’ rapids, an’ would have dashed us
to pieces agin the rocks in no time. An’
thar they come, closer an’ closer.”
“Now, Bob!”
“We run along the river for a ways,
an’ right ahead of us wuz a precipice that
a goat couldn’t climb, and on the other
side wuz a bluff straight up an’ down.
The Injuns was right onto us, an’ had us
penned up like rats, an’ tha^wuz fifty of
! ’em, ail carryin’ rifles.”
| “Now, Bob!”
“We didn't even have a jackknife
with us, but grabbed clubs an’ decided

have forgotten that midwifery was
taken out of the hands of women at a
period when they were regarded as be

allowed no educational advantages,
and were made to occupy a very hum- .

than any inefficiency upon the part of
women. Many will demur to the
statement that in art and in literature
they have accomplished nothing.

No matter how one may feel in this
matter, it is certainly unjust to decide
the question in such an off hand man

It seems to us that there is much which
