Doctors know altogether too much

leads him to lay great stress upon 1t.

position to issue orders to the nurse,
he cannot easily bring himself to take
orders from her, and he is disposed to
criticise and take exception to treat

ceives as a matter Of course.
But perhaps the most troublesome
thing of all Is the mania which the
doctor has for taking his temperature.
Ii he has a moderately high fever and
Is allowed to use the thermometer as
often as he wishes he can fret and

his temperature up materially. More
