PRIVATE PRACTITIONERS IN THE TROPICS AND EDUGA- TION IN TROPICAL DISEASES.

DISGRACEFUL REVELATIONS.

medical man should proceed to the tropics with- out a knowledge of tropical disease. In the first place it is not fair that he should be placed in charge of persons suffering from diseases, which, in some instances, be may not have even heard the name of. The public have a right to expect, that the medical man left in absoluté charge of a cominanity shall at least have been proper- ly educated, but Justend it often happens that the resident practitioner leaves the new comer in charge within a few days of his arrival, and goes home for a year or so, or at least takes a holiday for a few weeks.

If during his absence critical cases arise, the public are justified in grumbling if they are left in the hands of a young, imperfectly-trained doctor; or if there is a rival practitioner in the place the doctor on holiday will find a sadly diminished practice when he returna. It is therefore bad for the doctor's pratice and un- just to the public that any man, now the opportunity is afforded him, should (be allowed to) proceed to a warm climate to take up practice imperfecily trained.

Some remarkable allegations have been mada during the week in the Marylebone Police- court against, Franke'and Editha Jackson, ather-

It is fair to one at the present day that a This outrageous practice, it was further stated, was imposed upon girls by the man in the presence of his wife. Evelyn Croysdale narrated how she was persuaded into become ing a member of "The Order of the Golden Dawn in the Outer." She wished to draw back from the awesome ceremony of initiation, but was told that if she left the prisoners' she would' die at the end of the month. So she caved in. First, she had to, šiga, die "obligation," on interminable document in the language of an Act of Parliament or a conveyance, which held ou to her the menace of the operation of "a deadly and hostile curent of will," by which she would "fall, slain or paralysed, with out visible weapon, as if blasted by the light ning flash," in case she betrayed, the secrets of the sodality.
