by holding the fear of speedy death before their
He does not try to persuade the sick to take
treatment when he knows them to be incurable.
Neither does he by false pretepses
hold the sick under his month after month while do

He does not deude and persuade helpless ncurables

last dollar for medicine.
He does not take patients under false so-caed guar
antee, pretending to charge only for medicines and

end and object of his life to extort money from the sick
Neither does he rush each medical
