Mental Medicine

A somewhat eccentric physician who
recently died would order patients TO
take walks, say daily, on the lcgt side
Of the street returning 10y the other
side; another he would order to arise
each morning at n certain hour aud
eat cheese with ginger beer; another To
take supper precisely at midnight and
eat only apples, or he would instruct
the patient 10 put just so many grains
OF salt on the egg he was to eat and
part his hair in different way each
day. His object was to get the mind
OF the patient on something else than
symptoms, and This scheme worked
well In many cases. especially when
