OLD TIME DOCTORS.
The Stnilent* Helped Their Teacher*
la Practical Work;.
During the eighteenth century in
America the medical education of a
young student was generally what he
picked up by serving as an apprentice
to some noted practitioner, which com¬
bined the duties of a saWtdeut with
many menial affairs.
He ground the powders, mixed the
pills, rode with the doctor on his
founds, held the basin when the pa¬
tient was hied, helped to adjust the
plasters, sew the wounds and run
witli vials of medicine from one end
of town to the other. It was a white
day when such a young man enjoyed
the rare good fortune of dissecting a
half putrid arm. So great indeed was
the difficulty of obtaining anatomical
subjects that the medical school' of
Harvard college made a single body
do duty for a whole year.
Under such circumstances the doc¬
tor's knowledge was practical and de¬
rived from personal experience rather
than from books. Tfie advantages of
study were sparingly enjoyed, Few
physicians boasted of a library of iifty
volumes.
Ilis apprenticeship ended, the stu¬
dent returned to Ids native town to as¬
sume the practice of medicine. At that
period, with the exception of the min¬
ister and the judge, the doctor was the
most important personage in his com¬
munity. Ilis genial lace, his engag¬
ing maimers, the sincerity with which
he inquired after the carpenter's daugh¬
ter and the interest which ho took in
the family of the poorest laborer made
him the favorite for miles around. lie
knew the names aud personal history
of the occupants ot every house he
passed. The farmer’s lads pulled off
their hats to him and the girls dropped
courtesies as he passed. Sunshine aud
rain, daylight aud darkness, were nlike
to him. He would rffie ten miles in
the darkest night over the worst of
roads in a pelting storm to administer
a dose of calomel to an old woman ot'
attend a child in a tit.
The drugs were stowed away on the
shelves of the village store, among
heaps of shoes, Rohan hats, packages
of seeds and flitches of bacon.
The physician was compelled to com¬
pound his own drugs, make his own
tinctures and put up his owu prescrip¬
tions. His saddlebag was the only
drug store within forty miles, Each
spring the blood must be purilied, the
kidneys excited and the damsel who
fuinted profusely bled. Large doses
of senna and manna and rhubarb and
molasses were taken daily. It Is safe
to say tht^ more medicine was taken
every year by the well than is now
taken by the sick in the same time.
Water was denied the patient tor¬
mented with fever. In its stead was
given a small quantity of clam Juice,
Mercury was taken until the lips turn¬
ed blue and the gums fell away from
the teeth.
The InMInct of Bird*.
Borne wonderful facts concerning the
instincts of birds are narrated by nat¬
uralists. The oriole,’ for example, has
a fondness for bright colors, aud yet
prudence leads the little creature in
building his nest to select the least
conspicuous hues. lie ulso shows ar¬
chitectural skill in attaching a string
to his hanging nest and fastening It
securely by a number of turns aud a
knot to a branch above in order to
prevent the weight of the young brood
from breaking the branch from which
the nest is suspended. Is not this a
good deal like buttressing a weak
wall'.' Birds also show a progressive
spirit. Formerly ihe tailor birds of
Last India used to stitch the leaves
of their nests together with lino grass
or horsehuir. Hince the introduction
of British manufactures they use HOW
jug thread and ravelin,gs Switzerland from cloths. where
Jq the districts in
watches «re made the wagtails have
learned to build their nests of flue steel
shavings. Sparrows, which usually
build In chinks of walls or under
roofs, if forced to construct their nests
in trees or any uuslieltered spot usual¬
ly cover them with a sort of hood to
keep out the rain.
Trollope at Work.
It was the customary habit of Au
thony Trollope, perhaps the most me¬
thodical of well knowu English novel¬
ist.!, to always write with his watch
open on his desk. When at work he
drilled himself into the practice of
writing 250 words every quarter of au
hour and placed his watch before hi id
to make sure qf completing his thou¬
sand wqrds an hour. He pqpbpqqhed
the idea of waiting for inspiration uud
punctually produced Ida copy with the
regularity of clockwork whatever his
Stood ot the moment. He rnude a cal¬
culation to show that in this way, by
working at his desk only three hours
daily, he could write ten pages of an
ordinary novel a day and finish three
novels comfortably each year. Trol¬
lope could also write as easily In rail¬
way carriages while traveling as at his
desk and, us a matter of fact, composed
most of "Marchester Towers,” general¬
ly considered to be his best novel, in
this way.
The Clock Plant*
There is a plant, a native of Borneo,
which is known as the "clock plant.”
The name is derived from the action
of the sun’s rays on the leaves, which
are three In number, a large one ex¬
tending forward, with two small ones
at the base pointing sideways. These,
coming in contact with the rays of the
sun. oscillate like the pendulum of #
clock, the larger leaf moving upward
and downward, going Its full length
every farty-Jjve minutes, the smaller
leaves moving toward the larger, com¬
pleting the distance forward and back¬
ward every forty-five minutes, thus re¬
sembling the hour and minute hand*
of a clock.
Women as SmtU.C^rs.
From tile C l'cagn Chronicle.
Ohaiiman Nissen-, of the
toms committee of the
porters and Cutters’ Association
of Now York, was talking about
the jewelers’ shops of the Rue
dp la Puix in Paris.
“Millions of dollars’ worth of
jewels,” he said, “are bought in
these shops ly American women
and smuggled into this country.
Only 10 per cent, of the women
who bring over diamonds pay
duty on them.
“There is no such array of jew
els anywhere in the world as is
to he seen in the shop windows
of the Rue de la Paix, from the
Place Vendome on out to the
Place de l’Opera. Diamonds and
pearls and rubies, flawless and
incredibly big, glow and glitter
and blaze in a confusion that
makes them seem cheap. You
see so many necklaces you think
they must be common ; you can’t
believe they are worth $80,000 or
$90,000 apiece.
“Rue de la Paix jewels are so
abundant that you are deceived
into regarding them as fakes.
You are deceived in a different
way from a young actress I heard
about the other day. This young
actress won the heart of an el
derlv count who was visiting our
shores. The count frequented
her society for some months and
gave her a great many jewels.
t s After lie had gone home the
young actress, dining with a dia¬
mond dealer, said as she fingered
proudly her Hashing rings, her
sunburst and glittering dog col
lar, gifts of the count: “Well,
as long as I have these I’ll never
want for bread.’
it 1 Nor for pastry, either,’
chuckled the diamond dealer.”
