An Italian philosopher (says tho British Medical Journal), who has made inquiries into "the psychology of occupation," has constructed the varying degrees in which professeonal jealousy exists. The lowest place in the scale is assigned to architects; next above thena come clergymen, advocates, and military officers. Then follow professors of science and literatuia, journalists, authors, doctors and actors. • The 13ritisti Medical Journal, in noting the fact that doctors hold a bad eminence in the scale of jealousy quuotos the view of this same philos- opher (Signor Ferianni), who says that doctors display that mean vice by affecting to regard each other as quacks. Ferrianni thinks that the compara- tively slight tendency to jealousy which he notes in architects and ad- vocates is to be explained by "the precision and truth of their studies." The British Medical Journal ad- mits that barristers are. as a rule less jealous of each other than doc- tOrS, but thinks the reason due to the fact that their' personal feelings are but little engaged in the colli- SiC)11.9 which occur between them. 0 SENTENCE SERMON. • There are no sour saints.
