My little girl Hazel is now four years
old. Two years ago she had the grip. After
recovery her eyes grew infamed and sup
turated. For over Z months she had to
have her eyes bandaged and stay in a dark
room. The family doctor and an oculist
did everything possible. She did not i'm
prove and even grew worse. At last after
six months he gave Us the discouraging
opinion that the cornea Of one eye was de-
stroyed
And Sight Entirely Conc.
That it was doubtful il she would ever be
able to see any with the other, as the sight
was rapidly being destroyed in that also.

THE MEDICAL MAKEBELIEVE.
One Profession Which Offers Bonnnzas
for QuacNs and Charlatnns DO tho
American People Truly Like to pc
linmbuggcd

In the Elmhurst Signal Of yesterday
DR.. ]. c. Bateson, under the title 1.-THE
Medical ,Makebel!eve," gave a spirited
criticism of certain phases of the
medical profession. 1.-THE lamentable
influence of our modern civilization
upon that profession, he says, "is
truly deplorable. The people being
generally unacquainted with medical
matters therefore furnish a favorable
condition for the development of the
meaner traits of human nature, such
as cunning, avarice and hypocrisy.
Even those who are not naturally in
clined to walk in the lower levels Of
life, are found resorting to some of
these vices in order to successfully
compete in the struggle for popular
recognition.
1.-THE average medical man launches
forth in the practice Of his profession
with exalted ideas of his mission to
heal the sick and relieve suffering
But he soon learns that all these con-
ceptons are purely theoretical. He
finds by observing the methods of his
prosperous brethren that the most inn
portant study is not how to administer
suitable remedies and take good
Samaritan interest in patients, but
rather to study the science of external
show and display. or make believe that
he Is more competent than the plain,
honest physician, who will not act the
hypocrite in order to win favor
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1895-10-12

1.-THE polite snob Is permitted to en-
ter the social circles where his ser
vices are most abundantly rewarded.
And by pandering to the morbid fan
cies Of many he puts money in his
purse and extends his reputation, es-
pecially among the fair sex. Even
the general public Is such worshiper
of apparent success that we'll as
sumed air of prosperity is as potent to
lure the fickle goddess as Is more sub
stantial substance.
1.-The loyal practitioner recognizes
with chagrin how the medical fake
gathers up the shelsles though he be as
ignorant of medical science as the Hot
tentOt. His own personal experience
with the public shows him that the
saying attributed to Barnum that the
American people like to be hurlbugged
Is true. The counterfeit is received and
the genuine rejected. The thoughtless
