stefan insisted that his patient should go
only to certain drug store in order to
get the prescription put up OF course
such doctors constitute only very small
minority OF the profession, and only in
the larger cities has this method OF
fleeing taken root. In New York.
where this custom also prevails much
dissatisfaction now exists because certain
noted physicians, whose practice is larger

Or all the old time journalists Of New
York, only Erastus Brooks and James
Watson Webb are still with us.
Neither, however, is now in active SER

Weed migrated from Albany to New

gained a footing in the Associated Press.
