MODERN MEDICINE.

l went to modern doctor to learn
what it was was wrong.
I'd lately been on my fodder. and life
was no more song.
he felt OF my pulse. as they all do:
he gazed at my outstretched
tongue:
He took OFF my coat and. weskit and
harked at each Wheeling lung.
lie fed me small glass penstalk
with figures upon tr side.
And this was his final verdict. whom
all OF my marks he'd spied:-
do You eat fried eggs Then quit
It.
You don't? Then hurry and eat 'em
Along with some hay that was cut
In May
There are no other foods to beat
'em.
DO you walk? Then stop instanter-
For exercise viii not do
For people with whom it doesn't
agree
And this is the rule for you:
Just quit whatever you do do
And begin whatever You don't;
For what you don't do may agre,
with you
As whatever you do do don't"
Yea, thus saith the modern doctor
Tradition be boubly durnedi
What the oldsters knew was nothing
compared To the things we've
learned
There's nothing in this or that thing
that's certain in very case
Any more than single bonnet's be
coming TO every face.
It's all in the diagnosis that tells us
the patients fix
The modern who knows his business
is up TO a host OF tricks.
DO you eat roast pork? Then stop It.
You don't? Then get after it quick
~.
For the long-eared ass gives the
laugh to grass
And delights in the weed thai
prick-ly
DO you sleep with the windows open
Then batten them good and tight
And swallow the same old fer air,
Through all the snoozesome night
Just quit whatever you do do.
And do whatever you don't;
For what you don't do may agree
with you
As whatever you do do don't.
