FARAWAY MOSES. H1E WHtITESH OF TIIINUS OF IENIRAl INTRCEitST TO TEilE i'E1PIE ANI) RIELATES EXPEIENCES IN 1IS OWN CAIIlEER. (From Pennsylvania Grit.) I am going to write a letter while I'm better, from the polished baldi tudo of my thought-crib clear down to my fragrant No. 's--bottor as ox gall 8ou) stirred up with the tail ond of a lawsuit over the ownership of an old country homlestead with an ances tral graveyard on the northeast cor ner and a mortgage duly recordod at the county seat. I am bettor because I am slowly but surely (lying of a disease which every quack doctor in the land prom ises to curo permanently, if my mo noy holds out, and which the regu lar practitioner promises to curo if my system holds out long enough for me to die of old age. But they all want to be paid in advance. They aro willing to risk their medicine, but not willing to take any risk on me. I might he mean enough and contrary enougn to lay down and die after swallowing several barrels of their miserable and six or ton bushels of pills, besidet: making a regular daily aver ago of their sarsaparilla, and expec torant, and balsam, and bitters, and olixors, and cattle powder, and tapo worm-tea. They know their modi cine will cure, but these are not cer tain whether they could make enough of it to (10 the job in one season, so they want to be paid in advance in order to have mo measure the doses according t(. the amount of cash I can raise, and not become so wasteful as to take a bath in their Golden Gravo Snatcher and shoot their Mir acle pills at rabbits, so to speak. Every paper I pick up that has goti a circulation outside of a print ing oflice is fillod with the assurance of the sympathetic patent medicine man that 1 am standing with one foot in the grave and the other ini a mortgage and a big doctor's bill, and lie alone can snatch me from the jaws of death with his patent snatch er, at $1 a snatch, or words to that effect. Now, some of these groat modi cine men have wheedled a fortune out of their dying brethren, and are worthy of our respect, so far as mo noy goes; and the balance show very good symp)~toms of becoming wealthy if the p)rice of drugs keeps up, and it is very hard to distinguish between the honest doctor and the quack. I have often remained in doubt as to which was the honest doctor, even after taking a liberal supply fromt the one who had tihe picture of a million dlollar palace on the wrapper, and also from tile man wh'lo em ployed several bare-footed miggers to gather roots antd herbs and barks, and1 taught them how to read the Bible in exchauge for their labor. I have always been taught that this is the land of the Freak and the home of the Knave, but so far I haven't been able to distinguish be tween the two after they take upj the practice of medicine, nto odds what sort of label they put on the bottle. I once asked the regular practi tioner who furnished our family with pills and plasters and poison and pimpioe lotions wvhy the rogulare didn't try to stop the irregulars froma advertising their nostrumis and do. ceiving the people, but he laugh ingly remarked: "Oh, they don't hurt our trade al all-they never cure anyhbody." "Well," I said, sort of in a deep green musing way, "if they novei cure anybody, why is it tile peopbi are not sharp enough to distinguisi the quacks from the doctors she d< cure somebody ?" "Oh;" he sai with a Latin grim on the German side of his smooti Yankee face, "they haven't run acresi the doctor yet who is really able t< cure anybody." "But some people get well of thei dieso, I said. "Oh, yes," he admitted. "Som people get well in spite of the medi Gino they swallow, just the same a some people get into the Senate o the renitentiary in spite of their re ligion." Then we both laughed, after whie *. he charged me $2 for a dose of coir pound cathartic pills, and assure * uehat if I woul'd be careful of mh diet aand take lots of fresh air, would get- well in due time, perhapi I3t I never went back~ to his sho again. I learned soon after that thm doctor in the upper on (1 of town mostly proscribed whiskey as a tonic and a brain food and at norvo stitm. ulano and liver regulator, and 1 went to himi next time I needed medical advice. After the first trip 1 got a little bit wiser, so I wont to the sa loon and got the liquor ton times cheaper, with a saindwich arid a hunk of bologna thrown in to stop up the aeso)hagus and prevent the liquor from coming back in a lit of disgust to give the bar and t he country a bad reputation, as it were. I have now arrived at that pecu liar m ntal condition whore a man is just about as willing to die, as he is to iOko any more medicine at war pric(s. If a tailor would promise to make me a suit of shoddy clothes for $25 he would never be able to collect the money until after he had fur nished the clothes. lie Coul(ln't como arid feel my chest, and look down into imiy stomach, and pound my ribs, and make muio stick out my tongue, and tell him how bad I feel, and then go off and got drunk and afterwards sue for the price of a suit of clothes I never got at aill. But a doctor can. A dcMtor can pound you all over and tell you that you are a very sick man, and promise to eure you lup sound in a very few months; and after you are dead and gono to a place where the docto; is not nieded (nor wantel), ho can suo your widow and collect pay for cur ing you of the disease that killed you beforo ho got a1 chance to run up at doctor bill big (nough to scoop mll your little possessions. Theero must be easily 2,000 infah.i ble consumption cures advertised in the daily pipers, and moro than 10, 000 infallible catarrh curos, and 15, 1000 liver regulators, and 50,000 blood medicines; and still six out of ton peoplo you meet are allicted with catarrh, one out of twenty in the first stago of consumpi tio, and a majority of tno remainder have bad blood or bad liver or bad digostlon -and all of thom paying the doctors more or 1cs for making a diagnosis of their symptoms and prescribing drugs that are sure to euro or kill. Ages ago the medical profession proscribed harmless herbs and barks and roots, but the human soon be came proof against their effect, so the doctors had to use strychnine amid arsenic and belladona in order to kill the patient and tlo disease. And now peo)lo are getting so used to poison that the fratornity lire so riously thinking of using dynmiaite and nitro glycorinoe, and in ai short time it will be a dangerous thing te kick a sick man, or embrace ai sich woman, or box a sick boy's ears, 03 jolt a sick baby on your knee, 01 throw a dloubhlo barrel hoot jack at r sick tom cat ; for the .jek wvill alwaym be 01n the poimnt of expilodinig and blowing their nurse into an adjoin. ing State andi scattering shreds o woolen night diress from the sici room to the outer limiits of their con grossionaml dlistrict, or words to tha effect. Still, after all, most of the doctor', success depends on the faith of hii lpatients. The Africans are perfectl: satisfied with their voodoo0 manl, th~ German with his wvitchl killer, thi Christian Scientist with his faitl cure fakir, anid the newest crop o fools have their mind healer, whili the common~ folks are still satisfie< with pills anid powders anid Latih p)rescrip)tions; and( there is but duri little difference in tLe death list, o in the number of octogeniarians wh, have survived the blunders of tboi wise men and1 the inclemency of th weather arid the cook. I believe there will conmc a tim when peop)le will know what to eai and1 how to eat, and when to eat, nn " Actions of the Just Smell Sweet." The fragrance of fife li vigor and strength, neither o) : which can be found in a per son whose blood is impure, and whose every breati speaks of internal troubles.

Speaking of lmodlcino and doctor always recalls the time Dan McGol was working for the monical fakij who was running a "Chinese curo' in Denver. Ono day while the doc tor was off on a spree, and Dan, th( stable man was loafing in the office an old Russian Hebrew rag pickei came in with both hands on his stom ach and inquired, in broken bits o English and long slabs of Itussial H[ebrew, if Dan was the whole doctoi shop, and whether he could give hin anything for a pain in the stomach "Bedad, O'm do hull shootin' match sor," repliod Dan, "and yo coom t< (1 roight inshtitooshun to git coorod Let's see your tongue.
