weeks in what was deemed a hopeless condf-

family physician and had attended him in his
last illness, was called to see me, He thought
my case entirely beyond the reach of medicine
and decided that must die, and gave me one
week to arrange my temporal affairs. In this

stop the night sweats, hectic fever, and by so
doing they derange the whole digestive system,
locking up the secretions, and eventually the
patient dies.
