Honesty and Intelligence.

Granted.
Yet how many are dishonest through
ignorance, expediency, or intentionally.
One can be dishonest and yet say
nothing.
.A. clerk who lets a customer buy a
damaged piece of goods, a witness who
holds back the truth which would clear
a prisoner, a medical practitioner who
takes his ;patient's money when he
knows he is doing him no good,—all
are culpably dishonest.
It is generally known that doctors
bind themselves by codes, resolutions
and oaths not to use any advertised
medicines. Now, there is a medicine
