The doctors here have to answer calls at all hours and to the most difficult places. They have to travel by every mode of transporta- tion known to manâ€"by foot. snow- shoes. sleds, horse, dog team. train, airship, automobile and snowmobile. One Tlmmins doctor in recent years made regular use cf the snowmobile, which is a form of cross-breeding be- tween an automobile. a tractor, a sleigh and a war tank. The same doctor also used the airship means of travel to visit his patients in outlying secâ€" tions during the past couple of sumâ€" mers. But to return to the article published some weeks ago in these columns, it may be said that names are of no special importance because the incident referred to has been the experience in one guise or another of practically every doctor in the North. In publishing it The Advance had the thought that it was a typical example of the fact that the public in general owes a great debt to the doctors or the North. ' This week The Advance encoun- tered an article that appeared to show how one doctor collected indirectly in his later years some of the money owed to him directly during the time he practised. This article was in that ever-interesting column, “Grab Sam- ples" in The Northern Miner. The article holds so much of humour and interest that it is reproduced in full herewith. The doctor’s name is not given in the article but many will recognize him from the description. Indeed, he may be recognized as two or three different medical men, be- cause some of the kindness and skill and human mature indicated would fit more than one doctor in this North, though the eccentricities noted may make the identification more specific. In any event as a matter of interest and of record here is the “Grab Samples” article:â€" “For thirty years a doctor lived in a. Northern mining town, a medical benefactor of the type, rapidly disap- pearing, that was common in the days of our fathers. ‘He came with the railway, tramped the right-of-wsy in construction days, settled in the grow- ing town, ushered to-day‘s principal citizens into the world, performed the same service for their children, finally edged out of harness at a ripe age and devoted the last decade of his life to the rarely uninterrupted enjoyment of the society of his many friends, to hunting, fishing and indulging in re- miniscing. There was nothing that the old man did not know about the pri- vate lives of the older families; there was little went on amongst the younger crowd that, he was not privy to. He was greatly trusted and with good reason. He was never detected in the medical crime of amusing his friends at the expense of his farmer patients. He was the soul of discretion and in spite of the burden'of knoWledge that was his he never lost his sense of humor nor an all-embracing charity. “The old doctor had a failing, in fact several of them in later years. The one that finally came to be an embarrassment after having indulged it for many years, was his lack of business sense. He did not, nor could he be induced to send out bills. He did not, in fact, keep accounts. In the long run this occasioned the old man a good deal of troubleibecause many people found it convenient to forget their medical bills after a period of years. However, there were patients in considerable numbers who wished to settle up and this was quite a pm- oedure. First of all it was necessary to locate the doctor. He had no regu- lar office but used those of his friends, notably that of a druggist, where he could be found on occasion. The wri- ter was once engaged in listening to the old man talk about the early days of the town when a customer came into the drug store, asked for the doc- tor and was sent in back. The stran- ger asked the old man how much he owed. The doctor was evidently quite at a loss, seemed to be struggling with some difficult memory feat. asked a few irrelevant questions and then an- nounced hesitantly that the bill was six dollars. The stranger seemed sur- prised, quite shocked in fact, and again asked if the old practitioner was sure Of the amount. The doctor assured him somewhat dubiously that six dol- lars was correct and the visitor there- upon pulled out a big roll of bills and paid up. After he had gone the old man seemed lost in reverie. The im- pression created by the little scene was that the doctor had forgotten all about this patient. had probabw only dressed a cut, finger or done some such trivial job. and was now afraid that he had greatly overchargad 101‘ it. After a. few minutes of thinking he jumped up and rushed out {on the street, seeking for his friend, falling boflndhim. Hecamebaokandsaid: “About five years ago that fellow broke his leg up! the line and I made three trips there to fix him up. The train fare alone wus about ‘20."

In all other matters he \ gular but the intricacies; of . were quite beyond him and this coming was thoroughly underslo overlooked by the townspeople. “Occasionally. when his xvi away, the doctor boarded at, other of the hotels, sometfimes restaurants. The Chinamen tors of the latter were quit: of the situation, never took an of him, subscribed in full to t eral moratorium which the do: long established. “But he was far from being a public liability. His unpaid services to the population, particularly to the poor people, were great. He worked at his job; if paid, all right; if not. he was not upset. He was greatly in demand when dimcult cases confronted his younger medical colleagues, diagnosis being his strong point. In later years he was given to losing interest in his own cases once he had landed them__in hospital and fetched them through the worst spots. After that he left it to the younger men and the nurses. He was too busy to hang around con- valescents and a'good many of them resented it. Yet many of the older people would have nobody else when theydell ill. He had the inestimaabl'y valuable gift of creating confidence. ABOUT THE CROSS-EXAMINING OF WITNESSES IN (.‘OUR. (From The Northern News) One of the most subtleâ€"and succe fulâ€"“cross-examiners” in these part F. L, Smiley, K.C., of Haileybury, CI‘( attorney for the District of'Temiskz mg. He radiates cheerfulness in pa court, and is adept at extracting d: aging statements from reluctant \ nesses.
