When it doesn't and a lady would rather not dance with the gentleman applying to her. she must beg to be excused as politely as possible. and it is in better taste for her not to dance at all in that s-l.

He stated that. he had visited a large number of patients that day and that for some he had prescribed a drug or drugs to combat the epi- demic colds that were afflicting so many individuals; he did not prescribe any drugs for others. being satisfied with the competent nursing they were receiving. He explained that he prescribed no drugs in these latter cases be- cause they had been his patients for years and had enough faith in him to feel that if they were not given drugs it was because he didn't think they needed them. Generally speaking. if a patient sends for a. physician. it is because he feels that he needs it physic- ian's care and in the mai01'iil' Of cases expects the physician to pre- scribe drugs-to relieve pain. en- strengthen or symptoms. In Medical Clinics of North America. Dr. I-lotward P. Rome. As- soclate Professor of Psychiatry. University of Minnesota, states in his article "Doctors; Drugs: Pat- ients" ihat the majority of pa:- ients place their faith. their in- dependence. on the physician, and therefore look upon a prescribed drug as likely to be the answer to their needs. "There is an important. cymbal meaning to the taking of a drug It. is as if it emotionally united the patient with a poweriful force. In this unconscious union there is strength and at least a temporary sense of security. In this way drugs are able to provide immun- ity to stress." says Dr. Rome. This faith in the physician. this ahsoluie dependence on the phy- siciitn's ability to "take care of everything" . removes tenseness and anxiety from the patient. with tcnscness of mind and body and freedom from anxiety attain- ed. the patient relaxes and so gives his righting forces every chance to bring about recovery. llowever. every patient hasn't this complete faith in his physic- ian. He knows that the physician is competent but he also knows that the physician with all his knowledge and sympathy. can't know how much he is actually suf- fering and wants in drug -- a powerful dnig-to relieve his pain and anxiety. From the above we learn that the doctor must know his patient as well as he knows his drugs if he is to help his patient. K Boiler English ? II: 9. c. Wllllanal 5 VNNN;Y ww 1N.VV 1.
