Doctors?A Witty Defense of the Profession.
Professor N. R. Smith, the famous surgeon
and physician, lectured on "Doctors," a few
days ago, at the Masonic Temple in Baltimore.
We quote as follows from the Sun's report:
Being introduced by Mr. W. H. Sadler, the
Professor said he needed no introduction, as he
knew those?present, or was known to them, if
not professionally, as a semi-centenarian citi?
zen of Baltimore. -He was not present to tra?
duce that profession, so many of whose mem?
bers he himself had taught; for in so doing
he would traduce himself. His friend, Gov.
Pratt, had asked him, some time ago, if doc?
tors at large did not do more harm than good,
and he had replied that, taking the legitimate
members, they did not, but if quacks in and
out of the profession, and patent medicine
were includea, he must answer in the affirma?
tive. It was the same with religion, no one
will deny that the Christian faith is productive
of good, but take all beliefs and the result is
bad.
There is empiricism in every profession;
there is mach of it in religion, .and very much
. in the. law; but not so much in medicine as
law, because there is less chance for humbug,
i [Laughter.] There is so profession so much
maligned as the medieal profession. If a doc?
tor is pat on the stage he is invariably made
ridiculous, and even children are taught to
dread doctors. Ma says, "Be a good boy,
Willie, or I will send for the doctor," and
Willie is afraid, as he knows the doctor will
come for a fee. [Laughter.] He told an inci?
dent where a boy had an abscess, and when
Prof. Smith was mentioned the boy said he
wonld hot have him.
Something had to be done that, while not
according to moral principles, was necessary.
He (the Professor) was introduced as TJncle
John, of California, and talked with the boy
about his disease. The surrounding parts had
to be shaved of hair, and the boy wanted to do
it himself. While he was doing it the Prof,
said he was working awkwardly and asked the
boy to let him have the razor. The boy did so,
cheerfully, and in an instant the abscess was
opened, but the boy cried out, "You devil!
you're not Uncle John; your name's Smith I"
[Laughter.]
Great men, as well as small, maligned doc?
tors. Napoleon did not like doctors, but fa?
vored a certain surgeon. This inconsistency
was plain in view of the fact that no one can
be a good surgeon without a knowledge of j
medicine. Frederick the Great was also incon?
sistent in sending for the great physician, Dr.
Zimmerman. The King said, "I presume
doctor, you have put a great many souls out of
the world," to which the doctor replied, "Not'
so many as your majesty, nor with such glory
to myself."
If the medical profession have done nothing
else they have at least benefited humanity. In
the matter of small pox particularly look what
it has done. Here the professor detailed the
. progress made by the profession in the treat?
ment of that disease. During his remarks on
this subject be said the prevailing* impression
that Job had the small pox is a mistake, for it
is related that his comforters sat by him seven
days and nights, whereas if Job had "broke
(Hit" there is not the slightest doubt but that
his comforters wonld have taken quick leave.
[Laughter.]
Another benefaction given by doctors is that
of snch medicines as guard against malarious
influences. Some sixty years ago a vessel went
Xthe Nile some three honored miles, and
r a while she came floating back with every
soul that had been on board lying dead on the
deck. Now vessels visit that place regularly
without any effect, and all on account of J
quinine. Of late England has gained a victory
over Ashantee, not by improved cannon or
well-drilled armies, but because quinine has
enabled them to brave the insidious miasma of i
the place. Quinine will gain another victory.
When, as it surely will be, the Darien ship
channel will be built, it will be done as much
by the sovereign power of quinine as by enter?
prise and industry.
It is estimated that there are 2,400 distinct
diseases, out of which 1,500 are spontaneous.
Scarlet fever is often spontaneous, and it is a
question if any treatment is good for it except
nature's own. The belief that diseases cannot
be cured or broken up without Herculean med?
icines is a great mistake. Even pulmonary
consumption has been cured ere now by nature
herself, and in this connection Dr. Smith relat?
ed a great many very interesting circumstances
attending wonderful cures.
He once prescribed for a Bick girl, and after?
ward met her mother, who said the girl got
well from a home cure, and not from the medi?
cine. The Professor was anxious to know
what it was, and the woman was diffident in
telling. At last she said it was simply the
burned ashes of seven hairs cut from the ears
of a black cat. [Laughter] The force of
imagination is certainly very great, but much
of the good attributed to the results of imag?
ination come from nature's law.
Professor Smith stated it as a fact that whis?
key and tobacco bring more diseases than all
other causes in the world. Even the propor?
tion of accidents are mainly owing to nervous?
ness or intemperance produced by these articles.
They did more harm than the entire 2,400
remedies of materia medica did good. They
were also mainly instrumental in shortening
the average life of people generally. He be?
lieved that nature intended man to live one
hundred years, and invariably when dying be?
fore that age it was owing to causes brought
about by the individual. He argued that all
domesticated animals live to five times the age
of their maturity, whereas man matured at 21
and died according to the average in civilized
countries at 33 years. The Professor closed
abruptly just when the audience were warmed
with interest in the subject. Rising from his
ehair, he expressed his thanks to the audience
and bade them good night.
Plows and Ploughing.?Now I lay it down
as a fact, that successful farming is impossible
without good plows and good and thorough
ploughing being done. Too many farmers
there are, I must say, that do not know what
good ploughing is, or what kind of ploughing
is needed for certain purposes. We sometimes
hear a farmer say he would not have a turning
plow that did not turn over the furrow slice
Serfectly flat. Well and good, but a plow that
oes that kind of ploughing is not suited for
breaking up ground intended for corn or wheat,
as I shall presently explain. Now when I turn
under green weeds or clover for manurial pur?
poses, I prefer that the plow should turn over the
furrow, slice perfectly flat, provided it covers
up the weeds and clover ; but bear in mind,
such plows never turn deep or pulverize the
ground; what pulverizing is done afterwards,
y the inverted slice being exposed to the ac- \
tion of the weather; and such plows leave the
ground hard and smooth, below the" furrows ; j
as such, those plows I never use in breaking I
and turning the land preparatory for plant?
ing.
The turning plow I use for fall or winter
ploughing, in preparing land for corn or wheat
is the turning plow that breaks deep, and pul?
verizes the ground and turns the furrow slices
at angles of forty-five degrees, lodging each
furrow against the other. The plow that does
that kind of work leaves the ground thorough?
ly broken and pulverized, and it remains soft
and mellow; for when the furrow slices remain
lodged against each other at the angle, they are
never settled and compacted together by rains,
as when turned over flat.
When thorough ploughing and cultivation
are undertaken, we need less area of land, than
what has been customary with us in our South?
ern system of farming ; and what is done, let it
be well doue; and I will further add, rely more
on rotating crops and turning under green veg?
etation for resuscitating your lands, than on
commercial manures. '
The Way of the World.
There was once a pleasant village in a thrifty
New England State?there are scores of such
to-day. The boys attended district school,
helped on the farm, in the store, and up at the
mill; the girls went to school too, when their
mothers could spare them, rode down hill on
the boys' sleds in winter, helped with the
housework in summer, and frolicked, boys and
girls together, at apple-bees, corn-huskings,
quilting-parties, and picnics all the year round.
By-and-by two of the boys, the son of a far?
mer and son of a minister went to the city.
They were tired of country life, and determined
to see the world. They were good, smart boys,
and everybody prophesied well for them. They
would take houest country blood into the great
city, the werld would hear of them and their
native village be proud of them.
And so at first it seemed. The boys were
received with favor, obtained the confidence of
their employers, and rose rapidly until they
were placed in positions of honor and trust.
This good news'traveled of course to the little
New England village, and became the never
ending subject of conversation. The boys were
the heroes and exemplars of the modern spirit
of enterprise and progress; and while the girls
who were left behind fretted at the necessity
which chained them to their homes, numbers
of the boys were goaded by taunts at their want
of "smartness" to try their own luck, and were
lost in the great maelstrom.
But our two young adventurers continued to
justify the good opinion of their townsfolk.
Their fame spread, wealth came to them, sub?
stantial evidences of which were seen in sundry
additions to" the farm-house, in a new four
wheeled vehicle for Sunday church-going, in
divers silk dresses of quiet style but rich mate?
rial, city-made bonnets, and such a fitting out
as the parsonage had not seen in all the days of
its existence.
When the boys, now men, returned after a
long absence for a brief visit they were received
with due honors. A meeting was held in the
meeting-house, speeches were made, everybody
shook hands, the old people cried, the young
women presented bouquets, and everything
went merry as a marriage-bell. In fact mar?
riage bells followed. The son of the minister
had wedded the daughter of a city millionaire,
but the farmer's son returned to wed the only
daughter of the richest man in his native town.
This put the climax to their prosperity. Boys
were sent to them to be taught the art of suc?
cess ; money rolled in upon them?they were
now at the head of great business houses of
their own?orphans and widows begged them
to take their funds, invest and increase them.
What is it that makes the apple rot when it
has reached perfection ? What is it that puts
a 1;.nit to prosperity and says to the waves of
ambition thus far shall thou go and no further?
What is it in poor human nature that thus pre?
pares its own downfall ?
One day a great bubble burst; one day a great
wrong was detected. In the ruins of these
events we find two smart boys; two rich, greedy,
unscrupulous men ; hundreds of ruined fami?
lies; thousands of miserable, wrecked men,
women and children. One finds a refuge in a
foreign land, the other in a back street; neither
dare go home to receive curses instead of bless?
ings.
Bloodless Amputation?Is the latest attain?
ment in surgical science, and a Chicago paper
thus decribee the new process: If a limb is to
be amputated, for instance, the surgeon begins
by administering anaesthetics, as usual, and
the patient being reduced to a comatose state,
he takes a long, elastic bandage, and begin?
ning at the toes, wraps it around the limb
very tightly, each successive turn overlapping
the former at least one-half, until the entire
limb below, and four or five inches above, the
place of amputation is completely enveloped.
This forces all the blood in the limb upward,
beyond the point of incision. When this is
accomplished, a piece of flexible rubber tube
is wound tightly around the member just at
the upper edge of the bandage and secured by
knots. This prevents the blood from return?
ing, and it only remains necessary to remove
the elastic bandage below, in order to be
ready for the amputation. No blood follows the
knife, and the operator can see to perform his
work as well as if carving a round of beefsteak.
When the work is completed, and all the arter?
ies tied, the tube is loosened for the purpose of
letting in the blood, in order to discover any
twig-arteries not yet fastened. By this method
the patient not only does not lose any blood
from above the wound, but even that below is
retained in the veins, leaving much greater
strength in the body to recover from the shock
than where the usual hemorrhage occurs. It
is thought that this method may be also util?
ized to avoid the administration of anresthetics,
which are so much, though as a rule unneces?
sarily, feared. The very tight elastic bandage
several inches above the incision, it is believed,
deadens the nerves of sensation to such an ex?
tent that the operation can be performed with?
out great pain to the subject, even though not
under the influence of ether.
The Fish.?The fish of the United States
are unsurpassed in flavor in the world. Sports?
men who, with rod and line, have whipped
European waters, say there is nothing like
them there from the Norway fords to the Gua
dalquiver. Africa and Asia are both poor in
this respect. Even in China, where fish is an
abundant article of food, and is found in great
variety, the fish is coarse. The salmon of the
Scotch lochs afford the nearest approach to the
succulence and tender delicacy of our mountain
trout and the flaky cenderness of our salmon
trout. Then there are the white fish, the bass,
the shad, and an innumerable multitude of
others. We have but one rival, and that a
prolific but small one. It is the French sardine
when fresh. This delicious fish, in a few years,
will cease its rivalry, however, if reports are
true from the coast of France. At present the
sardine fisheries employ twenty thousand men,
women and children on land to prepare the
fish for market. Each year shows an advance
in the price and a diminution in the catch, and
in no great time overfishing will have produced
its usual consequence?a failure of the fish.
The Importance of Sneezing.?One may
be pardoned for sneezing under any circum?
stances, in view of the experience of a woman
from this city, in Westficld, recently. Being
in company, and attempting to suppress a
sneeze, she felt a queer sensation in the left
side of her face, which soon began swelling
and drawing out of shape. A physician was
called, but By the time he arrived her mouth
and the left side of her face had become drawn
up, disfiguring her so that her most intimate
friends could scarcely recognize her features,
while she found it impossible to close her left
eye. The physicians say it is a kind of paral?
ysis, causen by the great effort she made in
suppressing the sneeze, and give but faint
hopes that her features will ever resume their
natural appearance. She is now in this city
seeking medical advice?Spri7ig?cld Republi?
can.
Fat Meat for Consumptives.?A taste
for fat meat is unfortumely not universal
among children, but when it shows itself it is
often universally repressed by parents. This
taste is another expression of the want of the
living system which we can not disregard with
impunity. Without fats the organism can not
be built up in perfection. Fats counteract the
tendency to consumption. Observation has
established the fact that persons who in early
life show a taste for fat meat seldom fall vic?
tims to that disease; and, vice versa that
consumptives have generally shown an early
repugnance to such food, there can be no
question as to the lesson taught by this fact
that when the appetite exists it ought to be
indulged, and that it ought, if possible, to be
created, when wanted, by tonics, and abundant
exercise in the open air. i
Relative Weights.?The average weights
of boys at birth range a little over six pounds
and a half, while -girls fall a little below the
figure. For the first twelve years the two
sexes increase in weight in about the same
ratio, after which time the boys take decided
lead?the result being that young men of
twenty average about one hundeed and forty
three pounds, while the average for young
women of the same age is twenty-three pounds
less. Men reach their heaviest bulk at the age
of thirty-five, their average weight at that time
being about one huudred and fifty-two pounds.
The maximum of weight is attained by women
at fifty years, and is about one hundred and
twenty-eight pounds. The weight of the
average man or woman at full growth about
twenty times that at birth.
Cure for Lockjaw.?A correspondent of
the Scientific American recommends turpentine
as a cure for lockjaw. He says: "Let any one
who has an attack of lockjaw take a small quan?
tity of turpentine, warm it and pour on the
wound, no mutter where the wound is, or of
what nature it is, and relief will follow in less
than one minute. Nothing better can be ap?
plied to a severe cut or bruise than cold turpen?
tine ; it will give certain relief almost instantly.
Turpentine is also a sovereign remedy for croup.
Saturate a piece of flannel with it and place
the flannel on the throat and chest, and very
severe cases three to five drops on a lump of
sugar may be taken inwardly. Every family
should have a bottle on hand." The remedy
is simple and easily tested. In all serious
cases an application should be made under
needful advice.

Dr. January and Cancer!
THE celebrity of the January Infirmaky,
established in Murphreesboro, Tenn., in
1848, associated tho above nama?with the treat?
ment of Cancer until they became synony?
mous, both passed away with tho war. But
great discoveries, like truths, live forever. Dr.
J. O. January, inheriting his father's talents,
and improving on his experience, has achieved
a suceoss in advance of their former history,
owing to his increased patronage he has perma?
nently located in St. Louis; the numerous let?
ters bo is receiving, and large arrival of pa?
tients, justify his move to this central point.
Wo would advise .all aillicted with Cancer,
Scrofula, Fistula, Piles, Ac, to apply to him,
as lie possesses perfect control of those diseases,
without paiu or the knife. Address,
