How PAT SAVED HIS QuARrEs.-A physi-
clan, whose sign once hung out on Essex
street, tells the following good story. He was
sitting one day in his Office, when there came
in sn Irishman, who, after making his bow,
which an Irshuan always has the politeness
to do, addressed him thus:
"Can ye pull tooth for me, doctor. !
Sure its the devils own brother Eve got IN
nv head, that's been keeping me awake these
three nights entirely" ,
"Yes | think | can take 1t out for you"
replied the doctor "sit down aud let me look
at it." Tie tooth proved to be a large double
one, badly inaamed around it, and very sore.
When the instruments were brought out TO
commence Operations. Pat Showed evident
signs Of nervousness.
.'Och sure, yell be murtherin me, quite"
said he
ITO be shure I shall hurt you" said the
doctor in josular way " if don't won't
charge you anything for pulling it."
Pat said not another word. and the doctor
went to work. The tooth was firmly kni. to
a firmer jaw, and stuck " like Democrat to
the constitution" but our persevering doctor
tuggcd and pulled, fairly lifting hrs patient in
the struggle, who bore it all the way through
ike martyr, making no sign At last
offending nolor was out, and triumphantfy
laid upon the table.
There" said the doctor. " didn't hurt
you bad enough?"
Not lit, Sir" said Pat, and sure
you're not the man to be going back from
your own word"
Query-Which got the worst Of it, Pat or
the doctor-Porfolio.

What Money will Do.

Money i. a queer institution. 1t buys
provender, satisfies justice, and heals wounded
honor. EtefythiEg resolves itself into cash.
from stock jobbing to building churches.
Childhood or rives pennies, youth asPires 70
dimes, manhood is swayed by the mighty dol
lar. The blacksmith swings the sledge, the
LAWYER pleads for bis CLIENT the judge decides
the case of life and death for salary. Money
makes the man-therefore man must make
money, if he would be respected by fools--for
the eye of the world looks through golden
spec,aclcs. 1t buys Brussels carpets. lace
curtsins, silded cornces, rish furniture and
builds marble mansions. 1t drives US to
church in splendid equipages, and pays the
rem. of the pews 1t buys silks and jewelry
for my lady, it commands obsequisus asten-
ton. It enables us to be charitable, to send
Bibles to the hcathen 1t gilds the rugged
scenes Of life, and spreads over our rugged
existence velvet carpet soft to our tread;
the rude turmols and scenes are encased in
GILT frame. 1t bids care vanish, and soothes
the anguish Of the bed Of slckness-sseps
short Of nothing save the grim destroyer.
whose relentless hand spares none; but levels
all mortal distinction, and teaches poor hu-
manity that it is dust This wealth Pauses
on the brink of feternty-the beggar and mil
lionaires rest side by side beneath the sod;
aud rest III dn equality to answer the hna1
summons.
