A CURE AND A FEE.

Experience of d Doctor
With a Business Man..
In conversation one day about the
peculiar views that commercial men
sometimes entertain about professional
services Dr.. s. Weir Mitchell told Inc
following story:
"a very wealthy man from the west
came to consult me about an attack Of
vertigo. He said that he had just re.
turned from a trip to Europe, where
ne had consulted eminent specialists,
but that they had failed to afford him
any permanent relief. "A physician In
London he said, asked me why I did
not make an attempt to be cured near
er home. I thought on my way out
west / would stop over to see you
elias any physician you have visit
ed looked into your ears? ! asked.
"sNo,' was his reply.
81 made an examination of his ears.
removed some wax and a substance
that appeared to be hardened remnants
Of cotton wool. I sent him away then
and told him to come again in a day
or two. He did so.
We'll he exclaimed, 4 am cured.
How much do I owe your
".About $780, / replied.
"As he drew a check he asked, did
you know when you first examined my
ears that you could cure me?
when / told him that / had a very
fair conviction that I could, he said:
Well, you are a BANKED fool. You
should have said to me: II think 1 can
cure you, and I will do so for $4,000.
No cure, no pay You would have
got your money without a murmur.'
oh, / said, lie you feel that way
about it there are several little chari-
ties in which + am interested, and

You can't do anything to help along
the unconscious process which goes
on in the stomach, but you al do ev-
erything to help that process by at
tending to the fourth necessity. which
demands blood and the heat Of the
blood in the stomach. Allow no child
after eating to take violent exercise,
to study or even to read an exciting
book. The brain has first call upon
the service Of the heart, and as soon
as the brain is excited the blood leaves
the stomach and goes to the head. The
muscles also when too violently ex-
erted draw the blood away from the
stomach.
1t is absolutely impossible for a child
or a grown person to digest properly
or to get strength and vitality from
what he eats unless for at least a half
hour after eating the stomach be al
lowed to monopolize the blood supply.
Children should be kept quiet in
some way, especially very young chill
dren, after they have eaten. In tho
CASE Of very young babies nature at
tends to this mercifully by making
them so to sleep as o o as they have
absorbed their milk. Older children
ought not to go to sleep directly after
eating for physiological reasons which
may be explained at some other time;
but they ought to be quiet and calm.
Tens Of thousands Of children in homes
where this newspaper is read are ruin
ed in health by studying right after
meals. The public school system
which gives children too short a rest
ing period in the middle of the day is
responsible partly for this, and the
home studies at night are also respon-
sible..

to grownup people, Of whom not one
in a hundred has ever been taught to
apply to himself such common sense
