TWO healthy lads would do, with their arms
over each others shoulders, this being the posi-.
ton in which they move about. They will
probably be exhibited to the public, when pros

they enjoy, and their apparent entire conlen,ed.

the subject ofthe following address to them. Our
law Is guilty othe absurd Inconsistency Of cxaciinr
licenses to practise from Lawyers, who without nlcr
it, never can practise, and Of not requiring them
from Physicians who practise on the lives instead of
