The ROn,unce of Medicine.

TIE LIFE OF TIE DOCTOR AND THE
DEATH OF THE PATIENT.
Very much that is very remarkable
belongs to the diagnosis and prognosis Of
a case No two medical cases exactly
resemble one another, any more than any
two human faces are exactly alike, or
any two blades of grass even. A man
can no more be a physician by reading
books than man can he an artist by read
inc all extant publications on form and
color Each case is separate study in
itself Now this diagnosis is exceeding
ly Troublesome work. Patients often
cause a good deal of this trouble. They
send for medical man, and at once ex-
pect him to explain what is the matter
and to write them prescription. If a
medical man will not do this off-hand,
they lose confidence in him, and will ap-
ply TO some other practitioner. 1t is
perfectly wonderful how a London physi-
clan in extensive practice will examine
and prescribe III very few minutes
But as II rule, man ought to have an
opportunity OF studying a chronic case
minutcly before he adopts any decided
treatment. Invalids have also another
way of proceeding, which is sore trou-
bic 10 some medical men. They make n
round Of the London physicians, and take
a morbid dislike in discovering conflict
of medical opinion. They 90 to some
doctor, and when they have extracted an
opinion from him, they suddenly turn
round ard say that his views are totally
at variance with that of the renowned
Sir Kappa Chi, and derive little counte-
nance from the view of DR.. Lambda
Some doctors become reticent in their o.
pinions, and are afraid to deliver judg-
ment until they know what may be the
opinion of the great authorities. But for
the most part, the general practitioner
vii! give his own views and if they are
NJ variance with those of the great au-
thorllles, he will declare that the great
authorities are in the wrong. l do not
think, however, that the patient has been
in the wrong. In the multitude of conn
selors there Is wisdom, and an obscure
case has the fullest chance of being prop
erly understood when it has been submit
ted to different medical lights. The di-
agnosis is the making out of what is e1-
actly the matter with a patient; the
prognosis is the judgment, made with
more or less certainty, of the issue of the
disease. Some doctors attain a wonder
ful skill in both respects. They can al
NEST complete both diagnosis and prog
nosis by looking at patients face.
''It is very difficult case" said a
doctor one day to patient, "but will
tell you one thing for your consolation,
which is that you will get we'll" This
proved to be the case, but singularly E.
nough, the great man himself died sud-
denly before he saw the patient again.
As Il man, for the first time, was enter
ing a physicians consulting-room, the
latter whispered to a friend, "Case of

Little Benny and Santa Claus.

Inc followlng poem appeared in The
New York Evening Post some years ago.
Batting its kindly disposition toward egg

had told him Christmas morning,
AS he sat upon my knee
Holding fast his little stocking
Stuffed as full as full could be.
And attentive listening to me.
With face demure and mild
THAT old Santa Claus who filled them
Did not love naughty child.
But We'll be good, won't we moder?"
And from off my lap he slid,
Digging deep among the goodies,
In his crimson stocking hid;
While turned me to the table.
Where tempting goblet stood,
Brimming high with dainty egg-nog.
Sent me by a neighbor good.
But the kitten, there before me,
With his white paw, nothing 10th.
Sat by way of entertainment,
Lapping off the shining froth;
And in not the gentlest humor,
At the loss OF such treat.

Thrust him out into the street.
Then how Benny's blue eyes kindled!
Gathering up the precious store,
He had busily been pouring
In his tiny pinafore-
With generous look that shamed me,
Sprang he from the carpet bright,
Showing by his mien indignant
All a baby's sense of right
Come back Harney." called he loudly.
As he held his apron white,
You shall have my candy wabbit;"
But The door was fast and tight!
So he stood, abashed and silent.
In the centre of the floor,
With defeated look, alternate
Bent on me and on the door.
Then. as by some sudden impulse.
Quickly ran he to the fire,
And eagerly. while his bright eyes
Watched the flames go high and higher
In a brave, clear key he shouted,
Like some lordly little elf,
Santa Cause, come down the chin ley,
Make my moder have herself"
Il will be good girl, Benny"
Said |. feeling the reproof.
And straight recalled poor Harney.
Mewing on the gallery roof.
Soon the anger was forgotten.
Laughter chased away the frown
And they @amboled meath the live oaks
Til the dusky night came down.
In my dim fire lighted chamber
Harney purred beneath my chair,
And my play worn boy beside me.

God bless fader, God bless moder,
God bless sister," then pause
And the sweet young lips devoutly
Murmured-'GOd bless Santa Caus."
He is sleeping: brown and silken
Lie the lashes. long and meek,
Like caressing, clinging shadows,
On his plump and peachy cheek,
And bend above them weeping
Thankful tears-"Oh. undetiled,
For wOman's crown of glory,
For the blessing of child!''

New EXPOSURES TO INrEMPERA RASCF.
There was never more need than nov,
for vigorous moral agitation to promote
temperance, or for tho exertion of per-
sonal influence to save the young men
from the fascination of the Intoxicating
cup However temperance men may
differ as to questions of license and pro-
hlbltlon, they cannot fail to see that the
temptations to dram drinking ara taking
new and more dangerous forms, under
the effort to enforce the present laws.
Excluded from their old haunt4, drink
ers have adopted the " cooperative ~
system in procuring their regular pota-
ton and combine to keep liquors of their
own on tap at convenient places as the
law permits. As the drink in this way
costs less than half as much as when
bought at bar, there is a temptation to
take more of them, and the secrecy in
duces many to frequent these places who
would not be seen taking liquor in a
public saloon. Then there are social
drinking clubs organized, the members
OF which spend their evenings together
In drinking bouts and naturally make
rapid progress toward drunkenness. The
old fashion OF keeping liquor in the house
for private use is also coming into vogue
to an extent that many temperate men
do not dream Of 1t is possible that laws
may be so constructed as to reach these
sources of temptation, and the innumer-
able others that human sagacity can in
vent, and yet it is not obvious how it can
be done unless there shall be absolute
prohibition established, and drinking
liquors in any place and IN any quantity
except upon the prescription OF physi-
clan shall be punished as a crime Ger
tain 1t is that no existing law can re-
move the perils to which our young men
are exposed, and there is therefore abso-
Lutte necessity for the use of argument,
and all legitimate moral and
social influence 10 induce men to volun-
tary selt-control. Here, in fact, lies the
only security for any man, for there is
not as yet, and probably never will be,
any such thing as absolute immunity
from temptation in this world.-.Spr7lg-
