The- popularity of the $3 rate Is net nil
that Doctor McCoy suucht from It. It was
given for a iurrnc,i. e , that all who re
quired medical treatment iniKht avail
t hemsehes of thesamc treatment that ohl
those In go. diin.iimst.iiices had hitherto

been able to afford. It is. In a wcrd, an
effort togli eat a nominal cost what others
charge high prices ror; to reach those
thousands of people unwilling to paj the
high prices of the specialists, too proud
to plac c themtclv e on the plane of paupers
and seekthelnferlormid untrained services
of Dispensary Doctors.
Strange as It ni- apiiear, hitherto the
popularity of the ?3 rale, however, has
nearly succeeded In defeating the end
for which it wafc given. So mauy ap
plied toward the end of tLe limited period
that only a part of the great multitude
could tie treited. In tte last two month,
toward the close of the i.er'od.the appar
ent popularity of the rate actually brought
with It so mill v applicants that the purpose
ot the orfer -was sadlj Interfered with, for
only a smill proportion could !e tared for.
