Country DOct0rS.

The. Knickerbocker Magazine has a
biography of County Doctor, from
which we select the following incident as
a specimen of the annoyances to which
the profession are subjected in the rural
districts:
When men are sick, they want to be
cured, cost what it may, but when they
are on their feet, and at their business
again, they do not want to pay, especial
ly if the bill be little one. The poor
doctor is called from his bed on a stormy
night with the stirring summons
tDoctor--want you to come right
straight away off to Bankss. His child's
dead
Then why do you GOMEZ
He's p'isoned. They give him laud'-
mum for paregoricky.'
How much have they given him!'
Don't know. A great deal. Think
he won't get over it
The doctor pushes off through the
storm, meets with divers mishaps By the
way, and at length arrives at the house
of his poisoned patient. He finds all
closed-not light to be seen.
Il knocked at the door, but no answer.
I knocked furiously, and at last night
cap appeared from the chamber window,
and woman's voice squeaked out, Who's
therei
The docter, to be sure; you sent for
him. What the dogs is the matter?
'Oh, it's no matter, doctor, Ephraim
is better. We got little skeered kind o.
Gin him. laud mum, and he slep' kind O.
sound, but he's woke up now
How much laudanum did he swallow!'
Only two drops. 'Taint hurt him
none. Wonderful bad storm tonight
The doctor turns away, buttoning up
his overcoat under his throat, to seek his
home again, and tries to whistle away
modification and anger, when the voice
calls
Doctor, Doctor
What do you want
You won't charge nothin' for this vis-
it, will you
