Kraft says that dance hall proprietors and Gillette, the safetyrazorinctum of the country, are two specimens of those who are pleased to see "their handsome liniments" in the newspapers. In this country it is those "doctors" who cure everything-and whom the State Board fails to prosecute.

Dr. T. H. George, one of Cleveland's most promising and progressive young homeopaths, was elected president of the Cleveland Homeopathic Medical Society at its December meeting. The Medical and Surgical Reporter, in consequence, surmises that the success of the society for '08 is assured.

The Critique desires to acknowledge receipt of proofs from Medical Century of proceedings of the committee on “Medical College Inspection and Classification," held at the Auditorium in Chicago, December, 19, 1907. We regret very much that the same were received too late for publication in this issue.

Eugene Christian of New York City, and styling himself a "food scientist" has sent this office a rather lengthy letter re his little tilt with the "County Medical Society" of his home town, in which he claims to have administered a knock-out punch. The business manager will be glad to give our advertising rates on application.

The Texas allopaths are bellyaching about their new state law already yet. Isn't it too bad that when the biter gets bit he always bewails the fact in loud tones of voice. We hope a few other states will take warning of the sad situation, from an allopathic viewpoint even, of the medical laws of the Lone Star State.

The customary postal card announcement from the Denver Homeopathic Club set forth the fact that the meeting of January 20th was the annual meeting for the election of officers and other important business. The Critique regrets that no quorum was present, consequently no election was held. Just what action will be taken remains to be seen.

Medical Counselor knows a good thing when it sees it. Result: Copied Dr. Gladwin's article, "Christmas with the Crocuses," which appeared as the special article in January number of The Critique. Dr. Gladwin's style of writing on materia medica topics is so original and instructive that it cannot help do good along homeopathic lines and we hope to have much more of it.

Among other nice things which Medical Century said concerning Dr. Dienst's little book, "What To Do for the Head," nothing was more

convincing that it should be read by every homeopath than the following: "The amount of good, sound, practical homeopathic materia medica contained in this little volume is wonderful." Now there isn't much more to be said about a homeopathic publication that should add to its value, so get in on the ground floor and buy one real quick.

Dr. Curtis A. Wherry, who has practiced medicine in Ogden, Utah, for several years, called at this office on his way home from the East, where he has been for some time taking a post-graduate course in surgery. The doctor is a homeopath of high order and will move to Salt Lake City, where he will confine his practice to surgery. The homeopathic profession of that city should give him undivided support, as he is well equipped to give thorough satisfaction in that line of work.

The team which will represent the University of Colorado in debate with the University of Utah was chosen by competitive debate at the Boulder institution the 14th of last month. Among those to whom the honor went was Mr. Frederic Anderson, son of the business manager of The Critique, and his many friends feel, knowing of past achievement on his part, that he will add much to the chances of Colorado University in carrying off the honors of the event in anticipation.

The next regular annual meeting of the Minnesota State Institute of Homeopathy will be held at Minneapolis, Minnesota, May 1920-21, 1908. You all know how enthusiastic those Minnesota fellows are and nothing but a real, live meeting may be expected. We hope to be able to print as full report of this meeting as we did of the last one. But say, what became of those proceedings which were to have been published?

Inasmuch as there has been so much dissatisfaction regarding the selections made by the Institute of meeting places in the past, why not begin laying plans for the entertainment of the association for 1909 thus early in the game? Offers will be considered and by addressing Dr. Frank Kraft, Secretary of the A. I. H., 2055 East Ninetieth street, Cleveland, Ohio, much may be accomplished by representatives of any city soliciting the honor of housing this association next year. Get busy.

Dr. Thompson, who was interne at Mercy Hospital, this city, during the greater portion of 1906-7 is now located at Helena, Montana, and his host of friends will be glad to know is building up a most

excellent practice.

The doctor was one of the most thoroughly respected men in the profession hereabouts, and the people of Helena are to be congratulated upon the fact that so capable and courteous a gentleman has located in their midst. The Critique takes great pleasure in recommending Dr. Thompson to the profession of this hustling Montana town.

The students of the University of Pennsylvania Medical School have formed an organization, the purpose of which is to acquaint the undergraduates with the workings of the American Medical Association, after which it is very closely modeled. The various student societies take the place of the state organizations and elect members to a House of Delegates which transacts all the business of the Association. An annual meeting is held at which papers are read by chosen members, thus encouraging original research and a scientific spirit. The organization is named The Undergraduate Medical Association of the University of Pennsylvania and already has over two hundred and fifty members.

Mrs. Hannah Beeler died very suddenly at her apartments in this city, January 2nd. She had been ill for some little while but was supposed to be recovering nicely, when the end came without any warning whatever. She is survived by a daughter, Dr. Margaret Hofer Beeler, a prominent member of the homeopathic profession of this city, and a son residing at Cheyenne, Wyoming. She was sixty-eight years of age. Dr. Beeler has the hearty sympathy of a host of friends among the profession, especially alumni of the old Denver Homeopathic College, of which she was a graduate. The remains were taken to Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, the latter part of last month, accompanied by Dr. Beeler and her brother.

The B. & T. people-especially F. A. Boericke, M. D., and E. P. Anshutz-have issued a handful of small "dodgers" to announce the existence and successful use of some of the "best sellers." Primarily there is Kent's "Lectures on Materia Medica." It-this leaflet-gives a fine picture of this handsome man, not a day older than when we did the Gamaliel-sitting-at-his-feet act some twenty short summers ago, and helped him in various ways, as well as imbibed his lectures. At that time he wore an immense Mother Hubbard beard, and other apparel. Very few of the class "soldiered" on his lectures. We have already said so, and plainly, but B. & T. did not use it or any part thereof to advertise the "Lectures"-we already have said how good these Lectures are, and how no student can go wrong who purchases the book, and sets himself diligently at work to learn Dr. Kent's method.-American Physician.
