Sir Morell Mackenzie's Laroc Fee Attendance on Crown Prince Prederick. lor Some large fees received by noted physicians are recorded in an article by the late Cyrus Edson, .M.l). While some of those fees startle us, "we cannot say they are too great,' comments the doc- tor. "All thai a man hath will ho give fee his life," and why slinuld a pej-.ion worth millions nut pay heavily lor e.x- ceptional skill and ability.'" A few of till cases which he cites are noled here: strangely enough, something like pay- ment in produce may be found in Iho practice of the giealesl physicians and surgeons, for when a doctor has attend- ed a king or queen or one of the royal family it has been the custom from time immemorial lo reward him partly in rank. For example, take the case iI Pie late Sir Morell Mackenzie: Frederick, Crown Princo of Prussia and heir to the imperial throne of Ger- many, was suffering from an incurable disease.

If he survived his son, then that .son's wife, boin Ihe eldest daughter of Queen Vic- birin, would be .simply the dowager crown princess; but if Frederick lived lo Lo an emperor, then his widow would bj DOWAGER EMPBEiSS. Tho rank of dowager empress would net only be much higher rank, but il would give her a greater allowance â€" a liigher salary, so lo speak. Nor is this a' I. As emperor, Freilerick could do far more for his younger children than hi> could as crown prince. II is easy •o seo why it was so imporlanl that he should survive his father. Ot course, the lovo that his wife and childr n bore him was the most important ele- ment of all in their wish to prolong hi;- existence. On Ihe (dhcr hand, it has been al- leged thai there existed in the German court a party .so hostile to tho Oown Princess that Ihey hoped her liusbaml wiiuld die before his aged father. But this parly was di.sappointed. The dis- ease of ttie Crown Prince was cancer of Ihe Ihroat, nnd Dr. Morell Mackenzie, cf London, stood at the head of all lliroal specialists in Europe. He was .se:il for. nnd the woi-k of keeping ihe Crown Prince alive as long as possible was given him. There is a cerlain grim humor about ttie picliires of these Iwo men, Ihe I"m- peror nnd his sun. each certain to die scon, nnd each in the hands of men whose main object was lo prolong the life of Ihe patient. Dr. Mai'kenzie won, and then came tho question of his fee. He had done much, very much, for Queen Victoria's daughier; nor were any of the family unfratetul. He received, il is said, one hundred tl:nusand dollars in cash and the title of bnrnnet. Nor was the loller regard the sm:illcr. Great as had been Ihe prac- tice ot Or.' Mackenzie before, it was larger afterwards, and he could CHARGE I.ARGEn FEES. When Ihe Prince of Wales was .sick nt Snndrlnghnm, his physician, Sir Wil- liam CiUll, received for four weeks' at- tendance lifly thousand dollars and the title of baronet. Prelty good pay â€" twelve thousand five hundred dollars a week, more Ihan seventeen hundred and eighty-live dollars per day! . . La Peyronie, the physic an who attend- ed Louis XV. of France, received a fee which much exceeds these. The King gave him on estate comprising five vil- lages and two hundred and seven farms, which produced a yearly income equal m purchasing power to thirly-cne thou- sand dollars of our money. His Ma- jesly had only a slight fever. Catharine II. of Russia, one of tha most extraordinary women that ever lived, heard of the treatment to pre- vent smallpox by inoculation, and. tieor- ing, believed. .She made aiTangemonIs t) gel a physician from London, and Dr. Dimsdale, a well-known practilionep of the time, agreed to go. lie travelled to St. PelersBurg. where he duly ino- culated Her Imperial .Majesty, and I suppose such others ns applied. What he received from the others I know not, but from Catherine his fee was lifty thousand dollars in cash, ten thousand dollars for travelling expen.s- es a title and a life pension of twenty- five hundred dollars a year. All this for two minutes' work, in which no "know how" was needed, for any person can scratch an ann and rub lymph on its surface. Probably this was the high- est sum ever paid for so simple ao operation. â€" Youth's Companion. Ql'EEH N.\TIRAL UISTORV. Rats Declared by Scientists lo be ProUIir Propagators o( Plague.

No less Itian i,820,'X)0 rats have been killeil in Tokio alone since I'.HX). A Japanese scientist says: "All tho civilized nations have to light' this common enemy, the plague. il believe that there ought to be an inter- national conference to dLscuss a plan,' collect money and organize an interna- tional army to tight and vanquish this' disease from the .surface of tho earth., The expedition should be sent lo the. region of India and -South China.

II is about the size of a pigeon, | with a tail of exlrnordinary length, end- i mg in a tip of brilliant scarlet. It hasi a sharp ho.ike<.i beak, and frequents marshes and stagnant pools. The ven- om wilh which it inoculates is distilled in a set of organs which lie in Ihe up- per mandible, just below the openings cf the ntislrils. Under Ihem, in the roof of tho mouth.

When the liird sets its beak in Iho llesh of a victim this knob receives a pressure which liberates tho venom and inooulates the wound. t CC4 Girlhood and Scoft's Emutsion are linked together.
