DOCTORS' DAY OF REST.
The Association of Medical Men at Magdeburg, in Germany, a combination of all the physicians of that city, has made Sunday a day of rest for doctors. It has been arranged that one doctor in ten remains on duty on Sunday, and that his name and address and telephone number are communicated to the other nine doctors whom he represents on that particular day. If a- patient should summon any of these nine doctors, the patient is immediately informed that the substitute for the day is the tenth one, who is doing duty. In this way each physician in Magdeburg will work only one Sunday in ten.
