_ADVICE TEW YUNG DOKTORS._
Hire an offiss on the main street of the village, and stay in the
offiss.
When yu do go out, alwus go on the jump.
Dont never talk mutch on enny subjek, but alwus look kussid misterious.
Seldum go tew church, but when yu do, alwus leave before the church duz.
Charge everyboddy like thunder and litening.
If yu pholler theze rules clussly, and don't suckceed, yu kan kum tew
the konklushun that the doktrine bizzness ain't so good as it waz last
year.
