none to the fionl with the Mr j
Gill university base hospital, hasj

soldiers to allow themselves to
he inoculated against typhoid
fever. It will be remembered
that some time mm Sir Wilt; >?*
\ ^
caused a great deal of talk h\ I
suggesting that the average man i
was too old at 40.
Sir William tells the following
amusing story to prove the importance
of medical men being
very explicit in their directions

to their patients. j
A young foreigner who consulted
a doctor about his health
Yvas advised by the medico "to *
drink hot water an hour before <
breakfast every morning." 1
The patient went away prom: (
ising to do as he was told, but a ^
few days later he returned and #
complained that he felt much
worse. ^
"That's curious!" said the 1
doctor, "did you do as I told you t
and drink the water an hour j
before breakfast every morn- ing?"
"I did my best, sir," was the *
reply; "but I couldn't keep it up
for more than ten minutes at a
time!"? Pearson's.
