DOCTORS' LÄPSES.

CASES BEFORE MEDICAL

COUNCIL

Lapses from the high standard of conduct which the public associates with the medical pro- fession rarely occur. When they do strict disciplinary measures are taken by the profession's own governing body alike in the interest of the profession itself and the public. It serves.

A number of doctors came be. fore the General Medical Council at, its last meeting charged with various offences.

One practitioner when going on his holiday was alleged to have given advanced certificates of ins capacity for work to eight of his insured patients, the certificates stating that he had examined them on certain dates, although he was away on holiday on those dates.

Another doctor was accused of giving a womas à certificate that she was a fit person to receive a passport, whereas he had no pre- vious knowledge of her.

A doctor who had been convict. ed of drunkenness had his name erased from the register.

The number of offences neces- sitating disciplinary action forms; in relation to the number of prac titioners enrolied on the register- not less than 40,000-a gratifyingly low percentage.

WOMEN'S CANES. COLOURED TO MATCH HUE OF FROCKS,

The French Oaks, rum at Chantil- ly, was marked by a wonderful dis- play of new summer and autumn fashions..

The most striking novelties were the coloured Malacca canes carried by many women. Coloured light blue, white, green, or red to match their owners' frocks, they are very expensive, with knobs of fine porcelain, ivory, jade, and other valuable materials. A swivel attached to the knob holds a powderpuff, purse, or vanity bag.

There were many black and white dresses, all with short skirts, most of them being jembroidered with big oral designs of bright colours. Hats were small and of white or black fine straw, and also of delicate silk or tulle.

A Soothing Balm

For soreness of the marsios after viol ont exercise and for thuamatic pains, much roliet is afforded by massaging the affected parts thoroughly with Cham- barlala's Pala Balm. Try t when you have need of such a preparation and soo for yourself what an excel eat liniment

it is. Bold overywhere.
