BEDELL AND THORP Whose likeness appear in these columns and who have such pleasant office rooms over the North Platte National Bank. In the two years they have been associated together a peculiar similarity of manner has become characteristic of both. When either of them enters a sick room it is witha smile and an immediate proceedure to engage the patient in pleasant conversation--in short to "visit" in a way to allay fear and quiet the nerves. The only evidence that a keen diagnosis is being made is an ocassional query which is often masked by a joke. They evidently arraying all the patients powers of will and imagination on the positive side of the complaint. To their cheering presence must be attributed in part alike their popularity and their success. But the real foundation of their popularity and their success is a thorough scientific medical training, coupled with an instinctive power of diagnosis. By the existing partnership they are able to combine the experiencee of some years' practice with the later and extensive advances both in medicine and surgery, and are doiong a class of surgical work and obtaining results that are seldom excelled in city practice under more favorable hospital surroundings. Indeed, itis as surgeons that these gentlemen especially excel, and they make a specialty of surgical operations required by female sufferers. Dr. Bedell was a time surgeon of the United States Hospital at Denver, where his theoritical acquirements were supplemented by a wide and varied practical experience in medicine and surgery. Both are close students of their extensive library and believe in applying up-to-date principles. As a result their medical and surgical practice, has out-grown, not only the limits of their own town and county, but those of the state as well.
