CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY
By A. w. MACY.

AN INFLUENTIAL OLD DOC
TOR.
Galen was the most illustrious
Physician of antiquity. He was
born 131 A. D., in Pergamus,
Asia Minor, but spent a large
portion of his life at Rome,
where he had many great peo-
pie for patients. He was very
learned, and exceedingly proud
of It. He wrote many treatises,
and was a great Investigator: in
fact, he complacently believed
that he had exhausted the posi-
bilitIes of investigation. He
found the medical profession d.
vided into many sects or schools.
After his time there was but one,
the Galenic. He was very sue
cessful in his practice, yet when
tried by the standards of modern
science many of his theories and
methods seem crude and even
childish. His influence was far
reaching, for the Galenic system
dominated the medical profess
sion for more than 1000 years
after his death. Never, perhaps,
have the doctrines of one man
exercised so long, unbroken and
tyrannical power over the minds
of others as did those of Galen-
