rxrs-KD medictx.es. LONDON. Sept. .3. “I had iho curious experience the other clay of a very small woman leading into my surgery a burly husband and telling me of his symptoms as if he were a child,” said a doctor yesterday. “Men are more afraid than children of the doctor. .One of the bravest men I know, an Army officer, walks up and down outside my dcor a dozen times bole re lie can summon the pluck to come in. *‘Women, however, come readily enough as soon as they have any symptoms of illness. As a rule, also, they take their medicines conscientiously. “One male patient, who came from Devon to London twice a' year, has visited me each time for the last five years. Every time I proscribed an internal medicine and an external application. To make sure of having a sufficient supply he took home three bottles of each medicine, and when I went to stay with him recently T found the whole five dozen bottles unopened. He had paid me £.'ll 10s in fees and about £3 for the medicines.”
