THE MEDICAL MIND.

AAHuldlldpo llS -NtNo.J
In a recent address before the
Buffalo. n. Y. Academy of Medicine,
DR.. James NJ. Putnam gave some
views on The Medical Mind" one
defect Of which, he held. was that
it does not welcome the truth; that
the medical mind has been thinking
in grooves for so long that il takes
years before a new manner of think
ing may be developed. He mentions
in support of this the discussion that
ensued when DR.. Holmes announced
that the physicians themselves car
ried puerperal fever on their hands
from childbed TO childbed. This was
in 1S43. Or. Holmes kept his tenn
per. saying: Everything real
thought on every real subject knocks
the wind out of somebody. No man

counterpart that covers a mother

life and death TO listen to me for
lust once" To this DR.. Putnam has
added that the medical mind today
often chooses too ready acceptance
Of new products Of laboratories of
sera and vaccines, and this is due TO
environment and is a tendency to let
others do their thinking. IL may be
better for the patients. but it is a
habit which dwarfs individual men
tai growth. II is difficult for the
medical mind TO weigh evidence.
Few of us have analytical power.
Many OF us are too lazy 70 use what
we have. Some of US are too en-
crossed In the drudgery Of the pro-
fession. The reasons are many. but
the tendency is one that must be
fought"

Though he did large in the worlds history
he was true conqueror the things that make for

was a disciple OF doctrine of optimism, and looked
upon life as game of fair play. With something Of
the sportsmans blood enjoyment in play
ing the game fairly and squarely for its own sake
which is the truth of happiness and he looked upon
the reward as but a pleasant by-product.
Harry Johnsons personality felt by all whc were
brought into contact with him. either in his official
capacity any social relation Few men found the
world so full of good things; few there who look
upon the fraites Of human nature mere blemishes
on the fabric actually the woof Of life He was
convinced that there was good in every man. and his
belief was never dispeled. because through the lofty
impulses that prompted his every action he able
to bring out that good.
Harry Johnson is gone. The recollection that he
lived his cheerfuy steadily in the scale of
