The Brussels Post, 1903-7-30, Page 2FEES PAID TO DOCTORS FABULOUS SUMS AWARDED TO SONE PHYSICIANS. Pension of $7,500 a: year, and a I,ife Annuity of 153,250 to Nis Son. It is unfortunate for the fashion able physician of our day, whose in- come -may safely be assessed In five figures, that ho did not live under tbo third instead of the seventh Ed - Ward, when the Icing's principal surgeon was considered well reward- ed with twenty-five cents a day and an additional eight marks a year, and when Edward 11t,'s chief apothe- cary was passing rich on twelve cents a day. Even as late as Henry VIII.'s time none but the wealthiest nobles ever tendered a medical foe in gold; and ono cannot bolp wondering what the Court physician of the sixteenth century would have said if he had been told that his successor two hundred years later would be reward- ed for a few week's successful doc- toring of the King by a pension of $7,500 a year for twenty years and a life annuity of $8,250 to his son. This was the substemtiel fee awarded to Dr. Willis for giving George III. a now lease of lite; and even a century earlier, when Charles IT. was seized with an apopletic fit, and Dr, King, who chanced to be in the Royal bedchamber at the time, promptly produced his lancet and let some of the Royal blood flow away, the physician was rewarded for his "dexterity and presence of mind" by a promise of a $5,000 fee, whish, alas! history says, WAS NEVER PAID. When Josbua Ward, the most no- torious quack of his day, was once called In to prescribe for the King, and succeeded in curing the Royal malady, ho was- rewarded by a vote of the House of Commons and per- mission (which was the only fee he asked) to drive at will in St. Janes' Park. Louie XIV. was notoriously lavish in the sums he paid his doctor, and on one occasion when a successful operation had saved bis life he gave physician and surgeon alike a fee of 75,000 crowns and when a famous Scottish physician cured the infant of PY son of James I. of a malady he re- ceived the enormous reward, for those days, of 830,000. When the Emperor Joseph of Aus- tria was dying; Dr. Quarin, one of the greatest physicians of his day in Europe, was summoned to the Royal bedside, only, however, to announce to his patient that bo was beyond human aid and would be dead with- in forth -eight hours. For this frank 11 unwelcome verdict the Emperor created Quarin a Baron, and order- ed that a life pension of 810,000 should be added to support the dig- nity. The famous Sir Astley Cooper re- ceived many a princely fee, aro of which of 1,000 guineas, it will be remembered, was flung at him in a nightcap by AN ECCENTRIC PATIEINT; so it is little wonder that one year his income reached $105,000. It is interesting to seo from what small beginnings Sir Astley reached this regal revenue; for his first year yielded only five guineas, his second year 8130, his third year $320, and It was only after six years of prac- tice that his income reached a mod- est $1,000. But even Sir Astley Cooper would • havo gasped at some of the foes of fatter -day physicians. Sir Morel! Mackeneie actually dealindd an of - for of 6,000 guineas for a profession- al trip to America, which would not have taken three weeks of his time; and it is said that Dr. Oritchott, the eminent oculist, similarly refesed to go to India for a fee of 5,000 gni- " nets. A little-known Army doctor is credited with having received a $50,- 000 honorarium for attending the Nawab of Rampur during a rheuma- tic attack; .and Dr. Keyes, a great American physician, hesitated some . time before accepting an, invitation from onoof trio Vanderbilts to ac- company him on a yachting trip.to Europe, with $60,000 at the end of It. IN HIS NATIVE TONGUE. Prince George's Experience With • a Horse. . Ten or twelve years ago the pres- ent Prince of Wales visited Lisbon. He was then.Prince George, "seeing the world" and having all sorts of experiences, delightful and absurd, At Lisbon a great review was held in his honor, - During the passage of the army Prince George's horse became unruly, and the crowd, edging nearer, made the situation an uncomfortable 1e on t o, The prince spoke to his steed, at first gently and then forcibly, but without avail, Then he gave up, and exclaimed: "Oh, you poor brute! I ;suppose you don't understand English, and I can't talk to yon in Portuguese," The horse curveted again, and the mince was nearly unseated. Then 'he heard a voice within. a yard of him say, in perfect English: • "Pardee Inc, your regal highness, but perhaps I can bo of some assist - Pace. ' ssist-since," The prince looked round, and saw a youth in, the black gown and shov- el -hat of an English college. In his surprise he exclaimed: "And who aro you?" "I am an Englishman, studying here ae the English college, your royal highness, and I thought if you world allow mo to abuse your horse fit Portuguese, it might quiet him, and incidentally relieve your royal bigltness's feelings," They tried tho plan, and it work- ed adrnirably.

From the Sun, Orangeville, Ont. You can always tell anaemic men and women. They aro pale, weak and languid. They have headaches and backaches.

Thous- ands of grateful women have said that these pills have restored them after all other means tried had fail- ed, Mrs. Josias Mcilroy, of Or- angeville, Ont., was a great sufferer for several years and spent much money looking for a cure. To a reporter of the Sun Mrs. Mellroy said: "Several years ago my health gave out completely. I was so weak that I could not do my housework, If I went upstairs my heart would palpitate violently, and sometimes I would faint away through weakness. My nerves were unstrung, clad I suf- fered much from dizziness. I tried many remedies, but they did not help mc, Then I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and decided to do so. I am glad. I did for the pills soon built mo up and made me a well woman. NY health remained good until last spring, when I was again taken with weakness. I now knew by experience the value of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills and at once got a supply. The result was as bene- ficial as before and I can conscien- tiously say the pills have done mo untold good. I am grateful for this and hope my experience will benefit some other sufferer."

In most places the limit for age is eighteen for men and sixteen for wo- men. In Germany a man can only contract marriage before his twenty- first year when ho is specially de- clared of age, and this can only be done when he has completed his eighteenth year. In several parts of America it is unlawful for white per- sons to marry black ones. Tho law of France is specially notable for stipulating about the legal rights of each party, and the relations of each to the earnings of the other. It is literally true that the man who mar- ries a French woman becomes by French law liable to be called. upon for the support of his wife's near relatives if they are in need. Tiso relations created by a bothrothal in Hungary are expressly declared to give no right to demand the conclu- sion of a marriage. A SHOCK FOR TIIE DOCTOR, In Norfolk, England, it is custom- ary to speak of attending a funeral as "following" tho remains. A. young medical man from London, who had taken a practice in Norfolk, was sadly nonplussed the other morning on receiving a letter from., a d1scon-- solate widow announcing Die death of her husband, and. adding as, a postscript: "Wo all hope you will follow him." 1 .f THE DANGERS OF CHILDHOOD. Summer is the most deadly sea- son of the year for little ones. The little life hangs by a mere thread; diarrhoea, infant cholera and other hot weather ailments come quickly and sometimes, in a few hours, ex- tinguish a bright little life. Every another should be in a position to guard against, or cure these troubles and there is no medicine known to medical science will act so surely, so speedily and so safely as Baby's Own Tablets.

Usually, Very Sim- ple Remedies Will Stop It, Bleeding from the nose may be caused by an injury, such as a vioe lent blow, or sneezing too hard, or snuinng irritating substances up the nostrils, or it may occur as a symp- tom of constitutional disease, In the latter 0350 it may be the result of any one of several causes. In advanced adult life, for instance, it sometimes means that the person is suffering from Bright's disease or from heart trouble, causing the ves- sels that feed the brain to become overdistended with blood. Some people suffer from nosebleed when they climb mountains, or when they first go to live at a, much greater altitude than that to which they have been accustomed, In these cases, and in all cases caused by overdistention and pressure, the attack of nosebleed is a direct effort on 'be part of nature to relieve the system, and is therefore a blessing in disguise. In young people who are malting blood very fast -faster than the sys- tem. requires -there often occur viol- ent attacks which must bo, of course, suitably treated, but need Canso no great alarm unless they prove very obstinate to simple remedies. This form of nosebleed with disappear as the patient approaches adult life. and the whole system Ands its balance. Curtain diseases, such as scarlet fever, typhoid fever, blood -poisoning and erysipelas, ae often accompani- ed by attacks of nosebleed. These attacks aro then only one of the symptoms of a serious disorder, and as such would naturally bo dealt with by the physician in attendance. In the ordinary cases of bleeding from the nose in children or young adults, very simple household reme- dies aro generally all that will be needed. It is only when those at- tacks become too frequent, or when enough blood is lost to make tho sufferer white and weak, that more energetic measures will bo needful. There is an old wives' theory, that the dropping of a large cold door - key down the back will stop nose- bleed. This theory has, as usual, its little germ of truth. If a door -key is the biggest and coldest thing 'ng at hand, it would he well to use it in this way. As the virtue, however, does not lie in the key, but in its coldness, cold water compresses ap- plied to the back of the neck and the forehead would do the work quicker and more scientifically. If this has no ofect, the sufferer should' lie down with the nostrils compress- ed and the arms raised above the head. Sometimes plugging the nostrils with absorbent cotton soak- ed in some astringent, such as alum or tannic acid, will be found neces- sary. -Youth's Companion.

KING OF SERVIA IGNORED PETER KARAGEORGEVITCI BEYOND THE PALE, His "Brothers" Will Not Speak to Him While Under a Cloud. Ring Edward's action in withdraw- ing his Minister Plenipotentiary from Belgrade appears to bo the subject of widespread rnisa p prehension. It 11 does scot necessarily mean that all intercourse between the Governments of Great Britain and Servia has been sundered, er oven that England de- clines'• to recognize the de. facto Government at Belgrade, but that Edward VII,; who, by virtue of tho constitution, is in supremo control of England's foreign policy, does not feel inclined to maintain with Ser- vices new executive tho rotations of friendship that characterizes his in- tercourse with other courts until Peter Karageorgevitcis has taken some steps to dissociate himself front the assassins of his prodeoessor and to eloar himself of all complicity and connivance in the tragedy. Sir George Bonham, in quitting Belgrade by direction of his soya- elgn, did not intrust the caro of British interests in Servia to the convoy of some foreign power. as would have been the case had there been a complete rupture, but confid- ad their representation to tho Hon, W. G. Thosiger, the English Consul. The latter as such will transact all noaossary business with the Sorvian Govornment, but Will hold aloof from tho court of Belgrade. • MUST PROVE, INNOCENCE.

The latter, it may be remembered, owed his throne to the revolution of 18130 at Paris, in which he was implicated, and which resulted in the overthrow and exile of his cousin and benefac- tor, Ring Charles X. Amporor Nich- olas I. declined either to visit Paris or to accredit an Ambassador to the court of the Tuileries, leaving Muscovite interests to be ropresentod officially by a mere charge d'affaires, who treated not with the icing but with tho Minister of Foreign Affairs while nnofloially Russian views were promoted by the famous Princess Lievon, who was the political Egeria of Cuizot, the most influential po- litical adviser of the bourgeois king. PRINCIPLE - OF LEGITIMACY. Nicholas I. declared that he could not, without ignoring the principle of legitimacy, which is the funda- mental basis of the monarchical sys- tem, recognize as a ltir.g and a bro- ther sovereign a prince who owed his crown to a revolutiu't. The seine Ern1 pe•or Nicholas at first refused to recognize Napoleon 1II. as a brother sovereign. taking exception to the revolution and sanguinary coup d'etat, by means of which he had obtained possession of the imperial crown of France, while Queen Victoria, availing herself of her constitutional prerogative, dis- missed Lord Palmerston from the office of Secretary of State for For- eign Affairs for having directed the British wmbassador at Paris to re- cognize Louis Napoleon as Emperor without having previously obtained her consent. Nor was it until after the Crimean war and death of Nich- olas I. that the now Czar of Russia could be induced to address Napole- on III. as "mon frere." WOULDN'T RECOGNIZE 'EM. Russia as wolf as Prussia declined for many years to recognize either Isabella as Queen Regent of Spain or Maria della Gloria as sovereign of Portugal, on the ground that they had usurped the legitimate rights of their respective uncles, the late Don Carlos and the late Dom Miguel, to their thrones; nor eves it until after 1870 that Emperor Al- exander II. consented to recognize Victor Emanuel as Ring of Italy, having up to that time refused to acknowledge his annexation of the kingdoms of Naples and the two Sicilles, obtained through Garibal- di's insurrection of 43 years ago. In more recent times we find not only the late Emperor of Russia, but likewise the present Czar de- clining to recognize Prince Ferdin- and as ruler of Bulgaria, on the ground that ho had violated his plighted word, given to Alexander 1'II. Nor was it until Ferdinand had ssitlmitted' to the most humiliating terns. imposed by the court of St. Petersburg, including, among- other things, the convesion, of his eldest boy, Boris, from the Roman Catho- lic church to the orthodox rite, that he at length secured recognition, by Nicholas 11. as .Ps'inee of Tlulgasiu, ' • - f 8i5} m3Ilimn pounds of tobacco passed last year through the Cus- tom House for home consumption in the United Kingdom, Minard's Liniment Relieves Neuralgia 075 persons out of 1,000 inoculat- ed for hydrophobia after being bit- ten by a mad dog are savod from death.
