New York Office Boom 93, Tribune Bpilding, It will not do to dismiss such an experiment as was made by Nellie Bly af the New York World the other day with a simple sncer at the art of medicine and the methods of its prac- tice. This young woman visited seven physi- cians with an imaginary complaint, describing the same symptoms in every case. Her ad- visers gave different names to the malady, but Prescribed doses and treatment so nearly alike as to be practically interchangeable, the pur- pose of each being to aid digestion and give @ little more tone to the nerves. What else could be expected? The most enthusiastic Practitioners of medicine make no pretence that itis yetascience. On the contrary, they ad- mit that it is still in the empirical stage, and that their first advance upon a malady must be in a tentative way till its nature, and its rela- tions to the patient's system, can be pretty defi- nitely determined. This is one of the chief obstacles to success where patient and physi- cian are strangers to each other. The physi- cian is expected to grasp the secret of the dis- ease at once and apply specific remedies; where- as perhaps the trouble is of long standing in the patient's family, appearing in various gen- erations under different guises, and requiring a vastly different treatment from an attack merely sporadic, as it were. Moreover, in our modern civilization, many illa which seem to the sufferer deep-seated and dangerous are the result of tired nerves and an imperfect assimi- lation of food. A little dieting, and a gentle stimulant cautiously administered, set every- thing right. This possibility is present in the mind of the physician when his new patient applies to him; and, moreover, any symptoms of real disorder can be studied to much better effect after the system is restored to a normal condition. Hence the mild remedies usually administered at a first visit, with a request for an early return for re-examination. The practice followed in Germany and some other countries of employing a family physi- cian, who is paid so much a year for keeping the household in health, isa good one. Son succeeds father in the profession; and the dis- eases which are handed down in any family ministered to by them, together with all the family peculiarities, are spread out as ona map for the study of each member of the line of physicians. This is abroad and compre- hensive srrangement, operating on a prevent- ive plan as opposed to one merely curative, and therefore conservative of much energy which now goes to waste in the processes of experi- ment. —————q=- = The new number of the North American Re- view might be termed an electrical issue con- taining, as it does, articles on the telegraph, electric lighting and the latest scientific method of putting criminals to death. Mr. Edison's paper on “The Danger of Electric Lighting” explains in extended form the au- thor’s position, already made known to the public through newspaper interviews and para- gtaphs, that there is no danger in electricity if properly used, any more than in fire or water, or any other of those powerful agents of modern civilization which make excellent servants but:’. tyrannical masters. He says, however, that “there is no plea which will justify the use of high-tension and alternating currents, either in a scientific or a commercial sense. They are employed solely to re- duce investment in copper wire and real estate.” And. in any circumstances, ‘the ouly way in which safety can be secured is to restrict electrical pressures. The continuous current should be limited to 600 or 700 volts.” His declaration concerning the alternating cur- rent is that “it would be difticult to name a safe pressure.” Harold P. Brown, who writes about “The New Instrument of Execution,” says that insensibility to pain is produced by the continuous current at 1,800 volts pressuce, and that the alternat current gives the same result at about 160 volts, while the Jablochkoff light wire has caused death with only 100 volts. The conclusion to be drawn from the com- bined testimony of these experts is that the authorities should absolutely forbid the use of the alternating current, and of a high pressure continuous current, in public places. They can be reserved for the scientific laboratory and for use in apparatus deliberately designed to produce death, ro The medical society will bave under consid- eration this evening, the question of the best means of preventing the spread of scarlet fever and diphtheria. The topic is timely, and its proper solution is even more interesting to the general public, than to the learned doctors, A committee recently appointed by the society to inquire into the matter have reported that there are no regulations in the District to limit the spread of these diseases. It also appears that the health officer has repeatedly set forth the facts but has had no response at the hands of Congress to his requests for ad- ditional legislation. It is apparent that the lack of regulations must be more severely felt ag the growth of the city progresses. When Washington was @straggling village in which each man knew his neighbor, concealment of contagious disease was an impossibility. Now the couditions are changed, and with the great inerease in the population comes the necessity for additional safeguards to human life. Com- pulsory notification of the presence of cun- tagious disease, in order that healthy children or adults may not be unwittingly exposed, and that proper measures of isolation and disinfec- tion may be employed by the health suthorities, is now demanded in all municipalities that keep abreast of the times, It is greatly to the credit of the medical profession, that at the com- mencement of the season it has brought up a question, so manifestly a measure in the public interest, without waiting to be driven into it by the presence of an epidemic, ‘The antagonists of civil service reform resent the published intimation that the President will say something about the matter which will compel them either to be quiet or to assume an antagonism to theadministration. This resent- ment is superflous. It may not be possible to compel an American citizen to be quiet or to silence the voice of him who clamors for spoils, but the President and his party have already suid some things which necessarily put an an- tagonist of civil service reform in opposi- tion to the present administration. The suggested declaration by the President would merely be in accordance with and in fulfilment of the pledges of the platform and letter of ac- ceptance, upon which the administration was elected. The support and further extension of the reform system have been clearly and une- quivocaliy promised, both by the party which Mr. Harrison represents and by himself per- sonally. These promises have been acted upon by the people and have become binding upon those who made them. Has not enough already said to put one who clamors for the ad- ministration to dishonor its pledges in tion to that administration? Can any prt a the President, if, while fulfilling hig deliberate promise.in the matter, he mildly rebukes those of bis own party who tempt him to commit a breach of faith? oo Washington is well satisfied with the decision TTIT H H ERE r id Ho Eee L 00.
