Beautiful Surgeons.

“The girls of India make the flnesl surgeons in the world,” according to Dr. Mary Riggs Noblo of Colorado, recently returned from India, where she has been professor of surgesy in the woman’s medical college of Ludhiana. Doctor Noble is giving a course of lectures in Kansas City on “Patriotism and the Woman,” particularly the young woman. “The tremendous need for doctors in India,’’ said Doctor Noble, “has helped to produce them, for the veiled women of the East will not have man physicians to attend them, and many have died rather than be treated by a man. During the awful plague that raged in one of their cities a few years age ten thousand women lost their live* because of the lack of woman phyal clans and nqrses to attend them.
