WOMEN PHYSICIANS.

There are just sixty women who
have taken medical diplomas entitling j
them to enter their names on theBrit.jm OD; in, roo,J1 ,of rtt. wuz

practitioners. Of these two are dead ( kn7f an,bod' w ho wan J

ur tno forty-one, twentyone are en-i"
gaffed as lecturers or Instructors in
the London and Edinburgh medical
colleges lor women or as mcaicai (
officers to hospitals, dispensaries or
other institutions, leaving only twenty
who depend solely on private practice.
These facts were brought to my notice
during an afternoon at tho London
Medical College for. Women, and they
indicate that the field for the profee
sional woman Is under less thorough
cultivation abroad than in America.
And yet English women physicians
have taken high degrees at tho univer
sities. Miss Ramsay's Cambridge sue
cesses made her famous but she did no
more than Miss Eleonora Fleury, who
was sent up by the London Medical
College for the medical examination of
the Royal University of Inland, and
wha took tho highest position of all
the candidates entered, no male stu
dent approaching her record to a degree
that would entitle him to be ranked
In the same class. One large hospital
In London is under the care-of women
entirely, and three othor hospitals and
six dispensaries are managed wholly
or in part by women. The granting of
the first medical posts in the civil ser
vice to women was tho work of the lato
Fostmastcr-Genoral Fawcott, a brother-in-law
of Mrs. Elizabeth Garrett
Anderson, one of tho most successful
women physicians of England, and said
to be tho only woman physician who is
able to exact fees as high as those do-1
manded by the most successful men.
Mr. Fawcott appointed Dr. Edith9
Shovo medical officer for the female
staff of the general post-office, and ap
pointed three women as medical super
intendents to tho
SSiiL5S
Hbtik Loadow Collegiate school for
girls has a woman as its resident phy
sician, and so has the Girls1 school at
Sheffield. A woman is the medical ex
aminer for the life insurance and an
nuity fund for tha general post-office.
And yet women with whom I
talked on the subject did not
rate women's chances in medicine very
high. They said tha with a few
notable exceptions it was a life and
death struggle for a woman to build up
a practice. Tito bulwarks ofr cdnselv
vatism stood fast against tha fnaura-'
tioo, and the younger graduatee'were
locking to India as modicaThiission-
aries, superintendents of hospital arid;
senaaa physicians, in answer to a
very real demand, sad aided gener
ously Vy the fund established by tha
Countess of Dufferln. The Lady Dufr
farln Hospital, at Calcutta; the Kama)
Hospital, at Bombay: the Maternity
Hospital, at Lahore: the Medical Col
lege, at Madras; tho Victoria Hospital,
at Msdras; the hospital at Lucknow, a
dispensary at l'oona, and nmmbers of
other colonial institutions are now
officered, some wholly, some in part,
by women, thus affording na outlet
for the talent which England seems in
no hasto to emplov at home. Phila

There are men of such an uncommu

to MX) them on the witness stand.
Surely they, if any onorcan bo expect
ed to accomplish that feat, could
puzzle a lawyer." The anther of
"Afoot and Alone." gives an amusing
account of an encounter with a man of
this sort, in tho pine woods of North
Carolina.
Approaching FayetteviUe. I came
upon an undoubted specimen of the

I would ask him questions fast enough
and direct enough to force from him a

It is hard for the clergy to please
everybody nowadays. A Boston wom
an complains that her pastor never
looks at her when he preaches, but de
votee all his attention to the sinners
on the other side of the church. For
this reason she says that bis sermon
do not have the moral effect on het
which they ought to have,

In the course of conversation some
one said, speaking of a friend: "If h
were a man of more conscience he
would never do the things he Is sorry
for, and if he were a man of less con
science he would never bo sorry foi
things he had done."
