There are many lovely types of Begonias. the rose form is one of the choicest and the Pendiila or hanging Begonia is lovely for hanging baskets. The Plcotee is marked with a contrasting edge and the carnation is like H. carna- tion ln form. The ruffled is de- scribed by its name and the hy- brldlsts are perfecting new variet- ies every year.

Scme months ago we learned that in a certain hospital in New York City. about one-half of the physicians in attendance were suf- fering with heart disease. some later figures are now available. In The New York state Medical Jour- nal. we learn of ii heart and blood vessel examination performed on 200 unselected practising physic- fans ranging in age from 40 to at. The investigat on included a his- tory. a physics examination, a 11- lead-resting electrocardiogram. x- ray of heart's size and position. the two-stop exercise and other few.

or the 200 physicians. 94 had dennitely heart disease of which coronary thrombosis constituted 90 per cent (85 cases). Thirty-ifour were considered to have potential heart disease because of some ab- normal heart action test. The high frequency of coronary insuffic- iencyamons physicians is prob- ably related to their busy. tense life, combined perhaps with their obesity (excessive overweight) and excessive use of tobacco.

As we read about the carp phy- sicians with diabetes give them- selves l7.V careful diet and use of insulin. their riuelessneu in allow- ing themselves to become over- weight and smoking too much is hard to understand. Added to tfhis. of course. the irregularity of their health habits. lack of sufficient iileep. and rest hurried and often lneompleterl meals. the temenms of their nerves and muscles when human life is at stake and their feeling of respectlbility to their patients and the community.
