FAITH IN PHYSICIANS.
There Are Many Men who I'D Not
Take the Medicine Prescribed
Cor Them.

"The proportion of cures in public
institution are greater than they are
in private practice, said one of the staff
surgeons of the Charity hospital, "and
one reason for it is that the patients
take their medicine. It's strange, lu-
dicrously so, but few people who are III
at their homes really take what the
physician prescribos. That's afact well
known among practitioners, and they
encounter evidences of 1t every day.
Men are more skeptical than women,
and the average man of the world is al
most certain to literally throw his
physic to the dogs. One might well ask
why such folks send for physician at
all. They do it as q matter of habit. A
sick man likes TO talk about his suffer
ings, and is willing to pay a doctor two
or three dollars to come and listen TO
him, but he generally draws the line at
taking the medicine.
81 assure you ! am thoroughly in
earnest. Aphysician very rarely places
any confdepce in the patient following
his directions unless a capable nurse is
present. let me look at that prepare
ton a moment is 4 stereotyped bed
side formula. The doctor really wants
TO see whether any is missing. ! was
amused the other day at remark of q
prominent physician, who invited me
to accompany him on a visit TO an old
citizen who is laid up with la grippe
is there any calomel in that prescrip
tion?' asked the patient while il was be-
ing written. Yes saidmy friend. But
see heren protested the sick man. my
stomach is very intolerant of calomell
YES. I know replied the doctor, but
it's all right; you won't take it. any
