TnE FAMILY DOCTOR.
The Childlike Trust in Him, and His
Despotism to His Patients.

The Childlike Trust in Him, and His
Despotism to His Patients.
Without any pretence of faith in any
doctor who is nos regular. and without
prejudice to a sincere intention of calling
in a thoroughly instructed and expert
practitioner whenever occasion demands it
is still permissible to smile amiably at the
professional Jealousy of quacks. The sue
cesstuI physician, with exceptions which
happily are much more numerous than
than they were, is the most intolerant
despos on earth. And we encourage him
to be so. We are vaguely aware OF the
limitations Of his knowledge; we know
that he has to guess first what IS the mat
ter with US, and next what Will do us
good, and that though there are facts his
acquaintance with which helps him to
guess right, many theories that regulate
his professional action are still hypotneti-
cal and NAV or may not be correct. We
know that he has discovered that many
OF the methods his father used were IN
wise and deleterious, and that the doses
his father gave often hastened the result
they were intended to prevent, and hin
dered what they were designed to induce.
We know not only that he Is man, and
therefore falIible, but that his profess
sional science, like his fathers and grand
fathers, is progressive, and Is still very
from DtlLE SAdEA Ncf0tbt4C4cS ffitCA
anything ails us, in spite OF all we know
of his limitations. we fly to him as though
he were all-wise, ana DO as nearly what
he tells US to as our flesh and our pockets
permit. For we believe that, errlng and
inadequate as he is, he knows more than
we do, and that his knowledge is, on the
whole, the best that is at our command.
This cnildlike trust in our physicians
is a phenomenon which Is credltable 10
US and to our doctors, and from which we
both get benefit. Undoubt ediy our ply
sicians do US good: aad indeed they
ought to. even if they knew less and
guessed less fortunately than they do.
else were faith a much less potent virtue
than it Is declared TO be. But it is one
thing for us 10 flock OF our own accord 10
the doctors. and quite another thing for
those professional gentlemen TO hold that
we shall come TO them and TO none else,
aud that we may neither be legitimately
born, nor die legally. except with the
concurrence Of the learned faculty.-JuRe

Irwin, who is one OF the most popular of
the directors, was too III to come, but Miss
Grace Dodge was an efficient directress.
