Appliaa totho Radical Man, It Brings Dis-
Ister In Its Wake.
A writer in The National Medical Re-
view says some words regarding the signif—
icance of the title Doc" which are apt
and eloquent, and which evidently come
from a heart that has been lrnhlttered by
some and personal experiences. “if, ” says
this writer, “it has been your misfortune
to hecalled 'doc,’ and if this' recognition
has become at all general among your
friends, you might as well move to some
other place. A man may he called a thief,
liar and a deadbeat, and yet he may
prosper and live upon the fat of the land.
But once let him be called ‘doc,’ and his
professional success is at an end. We
would prefer to spend a night in the sta-
tion house, so far as its eflect on our pro-
fessional sums is concerned, rather than
to have our friends notice our approach by
saying, ‘Thcro comes doc.’ If a man calls
you 'doc,’ you need never expect a penny
from him for any professional services you
could lender. His answer is sure to be:
‘All right, doc. In afew days that will
be all right.’ ‘Doc’ moons disaster. ‘Doc‘
la the culmination of all calamity. ‘Doc’
is a catastrophe givon at one stroke. ‘Doc'
is the warning that we have reached the
extreme limit of our usefulness. *Doc' is
the hand which points on to the next
town, Shun it, my young friend, as you
would flee from a Kansas cyclone or a
prairie lire. Knock the man down who
first dares speak it to you and call upon
the whole medical profession for vindica-
tion of your righteous deed. ”
There are some people, nine, to whom
all doctors are just “does. " No amount of
dignity in appearance. sobriety in demean-
or, superiority in years, wisdom, experi-
ence, Wealth, {mitten or morals makes the
slightest diflorenco The doctor is clapped
g on the shoulder and nflnbly saluted with
the damning monosyllable. Hippocrates,
returned to (truth hearing the dignity of
supreme genius and wisdom, would be
simply Welcomed back with the same
“Here comes doc. "
“But, after all," comments The Medi-
cal Review, “doc is the Nemesis which
pursues the medical profession for cling.
ing to the modlueval practice of afllxlng al-
ways thc title ‘doctor’ to the physician's
name. Of all men of learning, the doctor
alone thrusts his profession into every
phaseand association of liisllflx. lie is
always Dr. Brown, M. i). No wonder,
thcrcfnrc, the title illlrl grown so furlllllnr
that it signifies little to the educated and
falls to protect against the flllilillltrlties of
the ill llrcd. ”
in England it is not usual in polite sn-
cll‘iy to address it physician as Dr. bio»
and-so.
