lnent and well known physician, formerly q
resident Of Detroit, but now living in Nov York,

"Yes, hayo improved In health since you
last saw me, and l hope also in many other
ways. One thing however, have succeeded in

know there arc some people who prefer 10
remain IN tic wrong rather than acknowledge
the manifest right. Such prejudice leads to
blgOtry OF tho worst order. Now | am ply

ton, come 20 the conclusion that truth Is the
highest Of al things, aud that II prejudice or
U.gOtIy stand III the WY Of truth, 80 much the
worse FOR talm--they ART certain - DO crushed
sooner or later. Why, WHOM knew yon in
Detroit, would - sooner have thought OF
violating tho code Of ethics laid down by the
profession, or u prescribing anything out Of
the regular ORDER than wOnld Of amputating
my hand. Now, however, | prescribe and
advice thoso things which | believe 20 lie
adapted 10 cure, and which my experience has
proven 10 be such.'
