A doctor visiting an Irish patient whose wife queries the recommendation to take one pill three times a day. Wood engraving after D. Wilson, 1903.

Dialogue includes: Doctor. "Well, Mrs. O'Brien, I hope your husband has taken his medicine regularly, eh?" Mrs. O'Brien. "Sure, then, docthor, I've been sorely puzzled. The label says, 'One pill to be taken three times a day,' and for the life of me I don't see how it can be taken more than once!"
