The great reason why physicians do not sure
Consumption is, they try TO do too much they
give medicine to stop the eosEb, to stop the
ehiilE, to stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by
so doing they dsrange the whole digsstive pow
er., locking up the sssrstions ana eventually the
patient sinks and dies,

A COnundrum Answered.

One OF our citizens is blessed, or
otherwise, with very stubborn
wife. In his case he finds that
when a woman will she will. Won
may depend ont, and when she
won't she won't, and that is the end
ont.
This popularity of disposition in
his wife is no secret among his as
sociates, and one of them meeting
him the other day, asked:
"W-, do you know why you
are like donkey 2"
"Like donkey y echoed W
opening his eyes wide. "No, /
don't"
do you give it upl7
81 do"
Because your better half is
stubborness ITSELF"
"That's not bad. Hal hal III
give that to my wife when I get
home.'
"Mrs. w." he asked, as he
sat down to supper, "do you know
why 1 am like donlxeys"
He waited a moment, expecting
his wife to give it up, but she didn't:
she looked at him somewhat COM
miseratingly as she answered:
Il suppose it's because you was
born So"
W has abjured the habit of
putting conundrums to his wife.

A Touching Incident.

A gentleman who went up The
Hudson on the st. John tells this
story:
81 had noticed a serious looking
man, who looked as though he
might have been clerk or book
keeper. The man seemed to be
caring for crying baby, and was
doing everything he could to still
its sobs. AS the child became
restless in the berth the gentleman
took it in his arms and carried it
to and fro in the cabin. The sobs
of the child iIritated q rich man.
who was trying to read, until he
blunted out loud enough for the
father to hear:
"What does he want to disturb
the whole cabin with that ID
baby for ?"
The man only nestled the baby
more quietly in his arms without
saying a word. Then the baby |
sobbed again.
"Where is the COMPOUNDED moth
or that she don't stop its noise 2"
continued the profane grumbler.
at this the father came up to the
man and said:
81 am sorry that we disturb you,
sir, but my dear baby's mother is
in her coffin down in the baggage
room. I'm taking her back to AL
bany where we used to live
"The hard-hearted man." SAYS
my friend, 'buried his face in shame,
but in moment, wilted by the ter
rible rebuke, he was beside the
grief-stricken father. They were
both tending the baby"
