But for the most part, the general prac- titioner will give bis own. views; and if they ste at variance with those of. the great authorities, he will declare that the great authorities are in the wrong. I do rSt think, however, that the patient has been in the wrong, In the multitude of counsellors there is wisdom, And an obscure case has the frllest chance of befhg properly un derstood when it has. been submitted to differ- ent medical lights. Tho dingnosis isthe making out of what is exactly the matter with a patient; the prognosis is the judgment, made with more or less certainty, of the issue of the discnse. respects.. They can almost complete both vosls and prognosis by looking at a patient's \It.is a very dificult case,\ said a doctor one day toa patient, \but I #i tell you one thing for your consolation, which ls that you will get well.\ . This proved to be the ease, but singuiar- y enough, mfisaeuumm himeelf. died suddenly before he saw the patient again. Asa man, for the first time, was entering a physician's consult- log room, the Intter whispered ton friend, \Case of great palit, L am: sure--musele adhoring to bone--chranic and. hropeless-\ us it proved. The same man was walking. down a street, and at the door of m hotel was i smiling: landlont, portly, fresh-colored, and appurently robust. Thedriend made some cusnal remark to the ef- feet that there was a typical Briton or something of that kind, You think 80,\ said the doctor, \\That mun is safe to die within a twelve-month.\ The diagnosis, sometimes easy enough, 1s 0 easionally Fen—plums; in the extreme. 'The great majority of eases are plain: enough <un expert enced physician will seo it all in five minutes; but others are exceedingly: ohscuro, and the medical man is never quite able to clear up the obscurity. Sometimes there is some little el- enmstance, unexpected and out of harmony with other cireumstances, which baitles all the calculation. \In every respect the patient is going on extremely mail,\ sald the doctor to an anxious member of the family; \hat 1 confess there is a little over the eye which | do not at all like,\ The case terminated fatally. It sometimes baypens that when a patient, by all the rules of art, ought to be getting: better or worse, ho persists in getting wore or better. It is a question of the patient's previous hletory and constitution, a alight attack In one caso b+ inc more dangerous even than i. dangerons at- tack in another. I remember being very. much mmased with the cuse of a young doctor and hir first patient. It was a child afflicted. with by- drocephglus. According: Wall the rules the child oug}¢ to die, Nevertheless the untoward infont persisted In not dying, The doctor went from his books to bedside. and from the hedaide to his books. He confidently asseverated to me that the infant ought to wie, and manifested a not altoguther friendly. feeling the infurit because it did not die. His troatment was uk together better than hia prognosis: at the time when my knowledge of the. case. terminated. it wan wolug on well . It is very hazardous for a doctor to wive a pmgnosis; if he openly gives an unfavorable rosmosls. oud the case. terminated: favorably, is reputation is wel-nigh cone.. Bue you will not often find a medical man doing. this sort of thing. As a rule the doctor alwage takes the most cheerful view possible of the case, and even hopes aguinst hope. In the last iMnoss: of George IV. the physiciana were always pronoun- cing him better, nid in the midet of the \bet- terners\ he died. Other doctors, however, there are, morbidly disposed, from whom you mus take every grain of comfort they give, an somothing more. It is curions that a doctor cannot always be trustod with the dingmonts and rognosi of his own case. The great ddctor Ne in rld to hase been n caso of this. He is enid to have denied that ho. wns consumptive. He did not experience nay difficulty in breatle tng; and argued that while his breathing. was feal man now takes this ga decisive Nuture, i her bounty, provides a Inrger spoea of lung than is necessary, and will long goon with a yer small amount of lung, and with very little d enlty in breathing. ~ Another: note-worthy- case of lang disease In a very different person, the % ng. Ha profeased to cure consumption, but in reality, like other mimilar quacks, he only cured qases of cough and bronchitis with-symptoms imitative of those in phthisis. He unquestionably caused death in several instances, by atreatment which would be perfectly harmless in most cares, but which was fatal to many delicato women. He was struck down by consumption, and died at the early ago of thirty-seven. One of our most promising doctors in chestcomplaints, Dr. Hops, who, at an early age. bad reached almost the summit of his profession, was prematurely: cut off by consamption.
