A. I don't believe in them. I don't believe one

B. I donH believe one medicine can cure every
thing either, in the way you look at it. But you
believe it is possible to prepare a medicine in such
a way as to be applicable to the human system in
all cases ?
A. Why, yes. I believe in the possibility of
anything, now-a-days.
B. Well, that is all I want you to admit. Call
in to-night, and I will give-you a dose of Wright's
