The SympathIZing Woman

Ii We were called upon to describe Mrs
Dobbs we should, without hesitation, call her
q sympathIzing woman. Nobody was troubled
with any malady she hadn't suffered
"Sbe knew all about it by experience and
could sympethize with them from the bottom
of her heart"
Bob Turner was wag, and when one day
he saw Mrs. Dobbs coming along the road to-
ward the house, he knew that. in the absence
Of his wife, he should be called upon to enter
tain her, so he resolved to play little on the
good woman's abundant store of sympathy.
Hastily procuring large blanket, he GOV
cred himself up in il, and threw himself on a
sofa near by.
why. good gracious, Mr.. Turner, are you
sick p asked Mrs. DObbs, as she saw his DO
sition.
"0h, dreadfully,' groaned the imaginary

cob, great many things. FRS, and fore
most I've got congestion of the brain"
{. That's dreadful" sighed Mrs. Dobbs Il
came pretty near dying of it ten years to come

troubled with it, but finally got over it
. Neuralgia, " continued Bob.
Nobody can tell, Mr. Turner, what I've
suffered from neuralgia. It's an awful com
plant"
Then again I'm very much distressed by

I" There have been times, Mr. Turner" said
the sympathizing woman s'when I thought 1
should have gone distracted with the tooth

Then said Bob, who, having temporarily
run out of his stock Of medical terms, resorted
to scientific name. - am very much afraid
that I've got the tethyasaHraS :"
Il shouldn't be at all surprised said the
ever-ready Mrs Dobbs; Il had it when was
young"
Though it was with great difficulty that he
could resist laughing, Bob continued:
81 am suffering good deal from sprained
ankle
Then you can sympathize with me, Mr..
Turner sprained mine when was coming
along"
But that isn't the worst of it."
"What is it," asked Mrs. Dobbs, with curl
Osity.
Il wouldn't tell any one but you. Mrs
Dobbs. but the fact is'-here Bob groaned-
I'm afraid, and the doctor agrees with me.
that my reason is affected-that, in short, Pm
a little crazy"
Bob took breath, and wondered what Mrs.
Dobbs would say to that.
''Oh, Mr.. Turney, is it possible :" exclaimed
the lady. Its horrible, l know it is |
Frequently hare spells Of being out of my head

Bob could stand it no longer; he burst into a
roar Of laughter, which Mrs. Dobbs taking for
the precursor of violent paroxysm Of insan-
ity, she was led to take a hurried leave.
