tons. This morning a lady who is a regu-
lar patient of mine called upon me. She
was, as usual, in state of intense nervous
excitement. Another new symptom had APP
peared in her case. She was convinced that
something was the matter with her brain.
because her head was tender on one side.
BY chance / happened to notice that her
hair was arranged in a way different from
her customary fashion, and doubtless that
was the reason for the soreness. Most
women have noticed that to part the hair
in fresh place is apt to make the scalp
sore for time; 1t is simply because the
hairs are turned in a new direction.
II said nothing about that to my patient
save to suggest that she should wear her
hair in the old fashion. l gave her a
prescription for something harmless. Moth
ing more was needed, because the woman
is in first rate health, and there is nothing
at all the matter with her physically. But
1t would never do Tor tell ner that
her maladies are purely imaginary. If /
did so she would not believe me, and she
would seek another physician.
In cases like this the conscientious medi-
cal practitioner finds nothing better to do
than to humor the patient"
