The American Osteopathic As­
sociation closed its fifteenth an­
nual session last week. It was
held at Hotel La Salle, Chicago.
It was a noteworthy conven­
tion-notew orthy because of its
attendance o f a l m o s t 2,000
registered physicians, while the
A. M. A. which met a month be­
fore at Los Angeles, only showed
an attendance o f slightly over
2,000 registered physicians. The
total membership of the A. M. A.
is over 40,000, while Jhe total
membership o f the A. O. A. is
less than 4,000. The Chicago
program was an intellectual and
a clinical feast. It is too bad
that all graduate D. O.’s are not
members o f the National As­
sociation.
The A. 0 . A. challenged thè A.
M. A., the Amercian Institute o f
Homeopathy and the National
Eclectic Association to a test on
800 patients with typhoid fever
or pneumonia, to be equally
divided between the four con­
testants or schools. The banner
to go to the school having fewest
fatalities. The challenge has not
been accepted; a half dozen here
have said it wouldn’t be, that
they were afraid to accept it.
Failing to get anything but
scorn and buncombe from the
other three schools, especially
the "Old School," the A. O. A.
sharpened the point o f their chal­
lenge by offering to put up ten
thousand dollars ($10,000,) they
each to put up a like amount and
enter the fray in earnest for the
sake o f suffering humanity to see
who is best able to cope with
disease. The winners to take the
$40,000 and put it into what­
ever charitable institution they
should name. Dr. Chas./ Still,
son o f the founder o f osteopathy,
said: " It would be the easiest
way I know o f adding $40,000
to the endowment fund o f our
A. T. Still Research institute."
Before the reign o f Louis X IV . in
France there waa a period when
palaces were not very comfortable
places in which to live. They were
magnificently decorated, but the
windows were small and not well
placed, and the rooms were filled
with magnificent but not particu­
larly comfortable furniture. Fires
were seldom lighted in the im­
mense, beautifully sculptured mar­
ble fireplaces. Usually the only fire
was to be found in the bedchamber
at the end o f a suit o f rooms. At
Versailles, in 1695, it is reported,
the water and the wine froze in the
king’s glasses at table. Mme. de
Maintenon sat in a chair with wings
to it to protect her from drafts.
It was customary to protect one­
self from cold by folding screens
and portable braziers.
The furniture in the halls and
rlora consisted o f carved wooden
nches,. stools, heavy chairs and
great gilded leather armchairs and
ebony cabinets and coffers, which
served fo r seata and even beds, and
which held linen, silver and clothes.
One might wander for a long
time through these labyrinths of
rooms before reaching the only in­
habited room, the bedchamber,
which was better protected from
drafts, had a fire in it and more
comfortable seats than the other
rooms.
T he bedchamber was the living
room. Friends and acquaintances
were received there. The door of
this room was closed, but all the
other doors were open, and persons
came and went aa they pleased, ad­
mitted and guided by no one, al­
though there might be more than a
hundred servants in the house. The
master o f the house, on leaving the
bedchamber, might find persons en­
tirely unknown to him wandering,
sitting or even taking naps here
and there about the rooms. The
service o f the servants was so poor,
one chronicler says, that no one was
•nrpriaed at being told that he must
go to bed without supper.
T he celebrated literary and social
leader Mme. de Bambouillet intro­
duced a change in the fashion of
house building and furnishing, and
royalty promptly copied her inno­
vations.— New York Press.
They have not accepted that
proposition yet either.

The dahlia did not come by ita
name without a struggle. It is, as
everybody knows, called after the
Swedish botanist Dahl, bat the
name, aa mispronounced by Eng­
lish gardeners, waa opposed by the
purists on the ground that there
tl
waa already an existing genus nam-
ed dales. Luckily the dales ia as
entirely insignificant genua, and so
the word dahlia was retained, but
not before a determined effort had
been made to change it to Georgina
— in honor o f Professor Georgi, a
Russian botanist. The strange ri­

with an ordination ceremony m
Virginia. As ia usual on such oc­
casions, the bishop wore a red uni­
versity hood at the back o f his sur­
plice. Among the most interested
o f the congregation was an old
darky from Richmond. After the
ceremony he was asked by some one
how he liked the proceedings.
“ I was clean taken by de preach­
in’ o f de bishop,” answered the ne­
gro, “ an’ at de Bame time I felt
kinder sorry for him. He ain’t got
no wimmen to look after him, has
he?”
“ Why, what makes yon think
that, Sam?”
“ I noticed, sah, whenever de bish­
op turned round dal de back o f his
coat was busted an’ de red under­
shirt was a-showin’ through.”

D’ Orsay was once dining at the
Old Ship hotel at Greenwich when
some one called his attention to an
inscription made with a diamond
upon the central pane o f the bay
window overlooking the Thames, in
which his name waa improperly con­
nected with that o f a celebrated
German dancer. D’Orsay took an
orange from a dish, coolly remark­
ing upon the good quality o f the
fruit and tossed it up in the air sev­
eral times, then, as though by acci­
dent, he gave it a wider cant and
sent it through the offending pane,
knocking the glass into the Thames.
