work together in unity and keep our
noble profession on tho topmost round
of the ladder of fame, whoro it justly
bolongs, though tho doctor's ministry is
a hard ono, for, of all lives, tho lifo of
tho physician is tho most self-denying.
He has no timo ho can call his own; his
homo is Iiis office and furnishes him no
sweet rotreat from irksomo caro. Tho
night cannot assure him unbroken rest;
Sabbaths aro ofton, whothor bo will or
no, his busiest day ; ho has no holidays,
and few and fragmentary vacations.
Friendship furnishes him fowor solaces
than to other mon, for his frionds aro
gonorally also his patients; ho meets
mon in their morbid conditions-when
they aro sick and misorablo: when they
aro well ho knows them not. Ho can
hardly make a friendly call without tho
hazard of having it converted, beforo
tho evening is over, into a professional
one. Ho lights in that which, no matter
how many victories ho wins, ho is suro
to bo defeated at last, for ho is fighting
Death. And when tho defeat, (which
must como sooner or lator), does como,
ho is fortunato if unreasonable friends
do not chargo his defoat to lack of
science or of caro. But no man renders
a moro grateful sorvico; no man comos
uoaror tho heart; no man is moro bo
loved. Other sorvices may be as groat,
but nono is moro deeply ami tenderly ap
preciated- (hy Home). Ho summons
back from death tho child and puts him
in his mothor's arms; tho wifo, and re
unites lin to tho husband. No foo eau
over compensate for such a service. Ho
to whom it is rendered is forevor debtor
to tho doctor.
