DR.. William Osler, formerly of Johns

cine Mt Oxford, was talking during his
recent Canadian tour about the impor-
lance of precision in the writing of
prescriptions.
wherever a sentence may have two
meanings" said DR.. Osler, rest assur-
ed that the wrong meaning will be
taken. Hence, it is important in pre-
scription writing and in directions Ia
patients that the greatest clarity and
precision be obtained.
"a young foreigner one day visited
a physician and described II common
malady that had befallen him.

Accordingly the physician wrote tn,

young man was to drink hot water al
