     Scarcely a day passes that does not bring with it some new discover of the medical profession by means of which humanity is benefited and some of the dread scourges are placed under control, if not wiped out.  Dr. E.H. Cowan is the discoverer of a synthetic bacterio-phage for the cure of tonsils, piles, carbuncles, felons, and appendicitis, in fact any disease the name of which terminates in "itis." without operation.  One of the men of Marshall who has taken advantage of the wonderful jprogress thus made is Dr. E.H. Cowan, whose work in chronic cases has brought more than ordinary results, winning for him a reputation that has far outrun local boundaries.  He wasborn in Arkansas, and was brought to Texas as a small child by his parents, Dr. William F. Cowan and Dr. Mary Ann Cowan, both of whom were very prominent physicians of their day in Texas, she being one of the first of her sex to practice medicine in the state. . . .
