THE CONSIDERABLE DOCTOR.

A poor girl, who had just recovered from
long spell of sickness, gathered up her
scanty earnings, and went to the doctors
Office TO settle her BILL
Just at the door, the lawyer of tie place
passed into the office before her on SINH
lar errand.
"Well, DOCTOR" said he II believe | am
indebted to you, and should like to know
how much"
Yes said the doctor, attended upon
you about week, and what would YOU
charge ME for weeks services, or what
do you realize, on all average, for week s
seryices?"
90" SAID the lawyer, 'perhaps seventy
five dollars"
Very well, then, as my time and pro-
iesslon are as valuable as yours, your bill
is seventy-ive dollars"
The poor girls heart sunk within her,
for should her bill be anything like that,
how could she ever pay! The lawyer paid
his bill and passed out, when the doctor
turned TO the young woman, and kindly
inquired her errand.
Il came," said she, "to know what
owe you, although know not as can ey-
er pay YOU"
81 attended you about a week" said he.
Yes, sir"
"N hat do you get per week?'
"Seventy five cents" said she.
''is that al!''
''Yes sir"
Then your bill is seventy five cents"
The poor girl paid him thankfully, and
went back with light heart. An old and
rich man OF my acquaintance was once re-
marking 10 the doctor, that no one earned
their money SO easily as the doctor, or could
get rich so easily. The doctor reminded
him of the many losses incurred, as they
must visit the poor as well as the rich
"Well," said my old friend, "you must
charge the rich more, and then you can af-
ford TO lose By the poor"
Not many " ~eeks after, the old nIan was
obliged to employ the doctor for some time.
Al the last visit his bill was presented, and
strongly resisted as enormously high.
But" said the doctor, "you know what
you told me, and have only followed your
advice
Not a word more was said, but the a,
mount was Immediately paid.

CAUGHT IN A TRAP.

1t was lately that strange event occur
red in the village of Champignolles,
France. One of the inhabitants had dug
a pit for the purpose oil catching a wolf,
and, after covering it, put on the top, TO
attract the animal, living goose. Anoth-
er inhabitant of the village saw from a
distance the goose, nutering and strug-
Cling TO get loose. The obscurity (t be-
ing twiighD not permitting him TO dlstin-
guish the trap, he approached and fell TO
the bottom of the pit. The pit was or
ten feet deep and the sides perpendicular.
Great was the astonishment of the man,
and greater yet was his embarrassment, at
finding himself in that position; and il was
not until after having for some time called
in vain for help that he resolved TO wal,
patiently Tor daylight, and meanwhile
made himself as comfortable as possible.
But hardly had he taken this resolution
when he felt a heavy weight fall on his
shoulders. This was a wolf, which, at
tracted by the bait, had also been caught
by the trap. You can easily imagine the
fright of the unfortunate man. Indeed.
the terror of the four legged animal was
not less, for it retreated at once and laid
itself down in one corner and did not
move during the night. At length day
broke, and to the poor companion of the
wolf it seemed time for it TO break, for the
night had seemed terribly long. The
owner of the trap came early to see what
he had caught, and found his neighbor in
the Dit. He drew out the unfortunate man
more dead than alive: but he was less gen.
erous towards the wolf, which he killed
notwithstanding his exemplary conduc
through the night.
