I Ater questioning the patient concerning his case, he promised to cure him in eight days, during which time he would every morning rid him of one of his troublesome inmates at the rate of one Louis d'or each. " But," added he, " as the last will he inech more obstinate and difficult to expel than the others, I shall expect two louis d'ors for him."
