STEINWAY
is the cheapest piano in the
world, because you get more *
actual value for the amount of -
money spent than in any other
instrument ; but if you do not
feel justified in paying the price
bof a Steinway, you will never
regret buying a
GABLER
PFIANO.
It is a distinctly high-grade
instrument, very sweet in tone,
responive in action and of such
perfect construction that it lasts ,
* for many generations. Gabler +
Pianos sell at $350, $400 and

Marked Improvenent Noted in Ex
amination Papers of Applicants
Bix Years of Experience.
The Commissioners' received today the
fifth annual report of the board of medical
supervisors of the District of Columbia. The
report was submitted by Dr. J. B. Gregg
Custis, president of the board. It is stated
that there has been a marked improvement
in the examination papers of applicants for
licenses to practice medicire, which shows
a higher standard of education. The re
port follows:
"The board of medical supervisors. in ac
cordance with the requirements of the act
of Congress, approved June 3, 1896, held
eleven meetings dur:ng the year. After ex
amination of fifty-seven candidates it
granted forty-five licenses. In addition to
these it granted licenses to eight practition
ers by virtue of their registration at the
health office prior to the passage of the
law under which we are now working. The
board also granted during the year licenses
to three applicants to practice midwifery.
There are appended tabulated statements
of the work of the board that gives the
names of the colleges and universities whose
graduates have applied for the privilege of
practicing medicine in the District of
Columbia.
Effect of the Law.
"After six years of experience the board
feels competent to judge of the effect of
the law, and Is unanimous in the opinion
that its passage was necessary, and that
its effects have been salutary. There is no
longer effort on the part of the traveling
charlatan to prey upon our citizens, and
but little danger to be feared that con
tagious and infectious disease can gain a
foothold in our midst because of the in
competency of our practitioners of medi
cine. and. In the near future, the board
hopes that it may by co-operation with the
judicial and police departments of the Dis
trict government, rid the city of the few
remaining examples of perverted profes
sional skill and honesty.
"The board finds a marked Improvement
in the examination papers presented. which
shows a higher standard of education on
the part of the applicants, and, what is
"equally as important, the teachings of the
schools represented by. the applicants to be
more thorough. and that our medical insti
tutions are fully e,ltde to the advance of
science in every branch teat bears upon the
practice of medicine, ,rot Only as individuals
are affected. but, aao, An it relates to the
welfare of the commiunity.
Harmony Pftvails.
"The citizens are to "be congratulated
upon the harmony.) which exists between
its examining boards, .there not being any
unfavorable criticismi on- tne part of any
one board against thile ottiers, and all agree
ing upon the atandaIY.fifad by the board of
medical supervisors. wlh standard is as
high, as far as profes$onal, knowledge is
concerned, as that4requ red by any exam
ining board in the untry, and which can
not at present be ra ed. The apparent dif
ference between otr standard and that of
other boards depends upon the preliminary
education required f!r matricdliation in
medical colleges, and ,.we would suggest,
through you, to the se al colleges in the
District of Columbia that they agree on a
basis of prelinnary requirements that will
better enable us to establish reciprocal re
lations with stats which have such re
quirements formally prescribed. We do
not believe that this will work any hard
ship to the students, and will carry out the
original purpose of the present law, which
was to place the capital city of the coun
try in the lead of the cities of the land of
fering the best form of munipipal govern
ment, sanitary requirements and educa
tional methods.
"The board has received four applications
for licenses under privileges granted by
other boards. which they were obliged to
refuse because of the lack of uniformity of
the laws and requirements of such boards.
Estimate for Appropriation.
"Under date of August 6 the board,
through its president, asked the Commis
sioners to embody in their estimates for
the coming year an appropriation of $1,800
for compensation of the members of the ex
amining boards, believing that, because of
the arduous labor required and the mag
nificent results secured, the District cannot
longer, with justice to itself, accept the
services of the professional men constitut
ing these boards without compensation.
"The boards of medical examiners have
held eighteen meetings. Each one of these
meetings represented considerable sacrifice
of time and the exercise of the most con
scientious and careful consideration of ques
tions prepared by represenitatives of the
several schools and the papers offered by
the fifty-seven candidates. The benefits se
cured were entirely to the citizens of the
District, and not to the members of the
boards, nor to the mnedical profession, which
has voluntarily submitted to the require
ments of the law, and for which they - are
alone responsible, their motive being to pro
tect the citizens from all dangers of creduli
ty and ignorance. whidh seem to be a part
of human nature.
Without Comipensation.
"There is no other body of men working
under a law whrich exacts so much without
compensation. Therefore, we, feel no hesi
tation in making the recommendation. The
amounts received under the existing laws
from fees represent no adequate return for
services rendered, and the fee system has
long been considered as bad in its results
upon both the municipal government and
the Individual ipa.rticluilting therein..
