" I thought that in the fifteen years of my practice of medicine," said a physician, " I had answered almost every possible 'fool' question, but a new one was sprung on me recently. A young man came in with an inflamed eye, for which I prescribed medicine, to be dropped into the eye three times a day. He left the offioe, but returned in a few minutes, poked his head in the Ooorway, and asked: 'Shall I drop this in the eye before meals or after?'"
