Keeping the Hair Clean.—Do not wash

oil in the hair.
Once a month, for most people, and
never oftener than two weeks, is the
proper limit of time.
0 keep it clean in the meanwhile, brush
it well each day and wipe thoroughly
with a clean towel.
When very oily, rub pure alcohol or
bay rum into the scalp, or a good tonic,
then rub dry with a towel.
This removes oil and dust, leaving v=
hair and scalp comparatively clean.

! CANDIED FRUITS.
When | started to practice medicine
. there was one admonition laid down
by the gentleman who delivered the
final address to our class when we
were graduated that had greatly im-
pressed me. It was this:
“Remember that mind bas a great
effect over matter. Therefore try to
' detract so far as possible from the
terror your patieats naturally bave
for you as practitioners. Above all
things, preserve a cheerful exterior.
The more hopeless au case appears to
you the more hopeful app ov to be,
for by giving way to your anticipa-
tions you lessen the patient's chanoes
i for recovery, and you may be wroug
| in your prognosis. Do not force pa-
| tients to take your remedies if it can
| possibly be avoided. Rather persuade
| them or banter them. Remedies taken
against a patient's will are apt not io
| act as remedies. Better a’ prescription
| of something to divert the attention
from the disease than fix it on that
disease by unwelcome doses.”
{ It seemed to me that there was a
| lot of common sense in this advice,
and 1 cut it out of the printed ad-
dress and pasted it within my writing
desk in order that whenever 1 opened
the desk 1 saw the injunction staring
me in the face, so that it was impos-
gible for me to forget it. I truly be-
lieve 1 would have built up a large
practice by observing it had not that
very observation of it on one occasion
led to my leaving the profession.
1 had been practicing but a short
time when, returning to my office one
day, 1 found a note from a stranger
stating that a member of his family
needed treatment, but was much
averse to receiving a visit from a phy-
sician or taking remedies. He suggest-
ed that I call without the patient's
knowing that I was a physician and
studying the case without asking for
symptoms after the stereotyped med-
ical fashion.
This, owing to the rule 1 had laid
down, was very easy for me. I went
to the house, rang the bell and was
admitted to the drawing room, where
I was received by a very thin woman
who did not appear to know my er-
rand, so I told her of the note that
had been left at my office. She seemed
to be slow in understanding me--at
any rate, for some reason, did not re-
spond very freely, making vague re-
marks such as “Just so,” “A doctor?’
i
jed | “T'll see,” indicating that she had not
been admitted to the confidence of the
person who had asked me to call,
The lady went out of the room and,
presently returning, asked me to walk
upstairs. 1 did so and was ushered
into a boudoir where sat a girl who
but for a slight paleness did not ap-
pear in bad heaith. She was not even
in dishabilie; but, the older woman
having left me with ber, it was evi-
dent that she was the patient. 1 went
in armed with my cheeriest smile, took
the girl's band as a matter of civility,
thereby getiing her pulse—it beat a
trifie quicker than normal—sat down
by her. said something to make her
laugh and saw that her tongue was
slightly conted. In this fashion I rat-
tled on. telling her stories and interest-
ing her until 1 nad secured her confi-
dence and a predisposition in my favor,
Then 1 said abruptly:
“But you're not looking very well
today.”
Then she told me that her back was
troubling her and she slept badly and
mentioned symptoms that indicated to
me a condition very common and for
which there were a number of simple
remedies. When I went away I told
her that I would send her a box of
candied fruit, a few of which |
thought she would like every day.
Then I left her to have some medicine
1 intended for her divided between
half a dozen real candied fruits and
sent them to her with my compliments.
1 called again soon and asked the
Medical.
