Medicinal Literature.

The London Lancet departs for Il
moment from the austere lrllls of Sci
ence TO adventure into the fields and
gardens of literature, though keeping
one foot safe within the accustomed
medical precincts. The Lancet dis
cusses nothing less worthy than the
works. writings, theories, maxims and
~pleasantries of Master Francois RAJ
belais, the point being that his diver
sions into letters were simply part of
his days work as a practical medico.
He wrote, the Lancet assures us, not
for the untold generations of the flu
tnre. not for the delectation of our
own selves, but solely and strictly to
amnse. hearten and brace mp the spir-
its Of his patients during the tedium
of their illness, thereby aiding his
cures and adding TO his stature as a
member of the faculty.
Master Francois was a great bellev-
er in the therapeutic value of litera-
ture.
