The American Journal of Clinical Medicine, Vol. 14

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Clinical Medicine, Vol. 14: July, 1907 And we will go further, in conclusion, and say, and likewise with no spirit of levity, that the statement to the effect that three-fourths of the physicians graduated annually are incompetent and should not be permitted to practise is all poppycock, to make use of the terse and eminently expressive utterance of a distinguished physician, at the meetings, respecting the assertion that evil results, such as insanity, may follow the excessive smoking of cigarets.
