In 309 B.C., Aristos, in charge of a flute orchestra in the Temple of Jupiter in Greece, called out his men because they were barred from eating lunch in the temple, making musicians the first strikers. A sealed book of 100 pages, titled "The Onlyest and Deepest Secrets of the Medical Art", was found among the effects of the celebrated Dutch physician, Dr. Herman Beerhoff, after his death in 1738. The book was sold at auction for $10,000 in gold. The buyer discovered that 99 pages were blank. Only the title page bore this inscription. "Keep your head cool, your feet warm, and you'll make the best doctor poor". Believe It or Not!
