The Managers and Clerks, of course, are dependent upon the success and profits of the institu tion, as they have no other visible means of support. These Doctors, however, get their living physicing folks, and their principal bases of supplies are those who imagine they are sick. Our purpose is this : The good old days are past. Com petition and new methods have done away entirely with the large profit feature in all lines of business.
