CONFIDENCE

said Lord Chatham, "is a plant of slow growth" People believe in things that they see, and in a broad sense they are right, What is sometimes called blind faith is not faith at all. There must be reason and fact to form a foundation for trust. In regard to a medicine or remedy, for example, people ask. "Has it cured others? Have cases like mine been relieved by it? Is it in harmony with the truths of modern science, and has it a record above suspicion? If so, it is worthy of confidence; and if I am ever attacked by any of the maladies for which it is commended 1 shall resort to it in full belief in its power to help me." "On these lines.

The injury grew worst, and after consulting Dr. Rowlands, of Guy's Hospital, it was resolved to amputite the leg from the thigh. "There was no Bunes. thetic used," said Dr. Tanner, a witness at the inquest, but Dr. Rowlao is injected a preparation which deadened all feeling.
