HEAL VALUE or TEE MEDICAL raosD
The popular, or at least the su-
per6cisl. idea of . physician II one
who often fails 10 cure you when
you ere sick. and who 10 obliged,
sooner or later, to confess that you
are beyond his help. And that 10,
in measure, true. Every candid
physician will admit thu compare
tive ignorance of the profession
that, in the words Of Voltairs, be
puts into . body Of which be knows
little. substances, the effect Of
which be can. predict with little
certainty; that most diseases ere
self-tsrminating. and that people
with proper care would in many
cases recover without medicine OF
doctor; that the doctor is frequent
" bshled, and 10 experimenting
rather than curing, and that msdi-
cine probably does . great deal
Of harm ~ well as . great deal Of
good. If this were al that could
be said Of an art which has existed
two thousand years, it would be
. pityfnl outcome for the time and
money expended IN learning, prac-
ticipg and sustaining il. But il 10
one-half of the truth. The medical
art, - the result ofexperience and
experiments, the ingenuity, invss-
tigation and study Of its millions
of followers. has added to the
wealth, productive power, the gen.
srsl health, and consequently the
aggregate Of happiness in the world.
Though in thousands Of individual
cases it can not save the sick, bat
sits as despairing and helpless -
the most Of their friends; though
young infants die like Aies; though
men and women in the full dush Of
health disappear like the dew, and
thousands fade away blighted By
incurshle disease, yet many chill
dren are saved BY the physicisn's
art; prompt medical attendance
has restored those suddenly strick-
en-. and careful study has prolonged
the existence OF tho victims 81 in
durable diseases. A. : conss-
quencs of all this. longevity slowly
incI eases, century By century. from
an average Of twelve or thirteen
years among savages TO 33 yesrs
among civilized races; those days
which would have been spent in
letting nature ''work its own cure, Z"
are diminished in number, and the
productive power and general hap
piness increase in proportion.
Hence the medical art has dooe its
share in the domain Of social and
political economy by adding to the
number Of days in which men can
work and produce. and is = potent
