As long 'as tlie f'einale doctore were contined to one or two iu thc whole country, and tliose were only experimente!, we had our peacc, :iiul did not oompluin ; but now that coliches are engaged in prodoolng female doctor! u a buuneM, w musí protest, and in so dohig 11 uvc a l'cw reasons wliy témale doctor will not . provea payingbniuch of industry. ín the tirst place, if they doctor any body t must bc women, and tliret -tourths Oí llie woineii would rat her liave a male doctor. !Su ppote tliose colleges turn out female doctors uittil tliere are as inany of tliein ai tliere are male doctors, what have they gol topnctlceonf' A man, il' there was QOthing the matter with liim, might cal] in a tanate doctors but ii' he was sick as a lmr.se (if a man is sick he is as sick as a norse) the last thing he would have tround hiin would bea female doctor. Aml why? Because, when a man has a female fumblinií arouad him he wants to feel well, He dun't want to be bilious or feyerish, wltb hlfl nioulh tastiag like theese bis eyes blondshot, when the témale is looking him over and taking accouut of stock.

We have all seen doctors put tbeir hands ander the bedclothes and feel of a man's feet to see if they were cold. If a female doctor should do that it would give a man cramps iu the A male doctor can put his hand on a man's stomach and liver and lunirs, and ask biin if he leels any pain there, but it'a tanate doctor should do the same thing it wou UI make a man aick, and he would want to net up and kick himself for employfng a teníale doctor.
