Nor TO BE FooLED.-In Philadel-
phia there lives doctor so lean that
the sobriquet of "Old Bones is far
from being a misnomer.
This doctor has student, who at
tends within while the doctor is out.
Among the fixtures of the office is a
wired skeleton, so hung and adjusted
that it will walk out of the cupboard
where it is kept and so through sew
eral grotesque antics.
One day youthful peddley with a
basket of knicknacks presented him-
self. When told that nothing in his
line was wanted, the little rascal be-
gan to sstalk back in a most impu-
dent manner, aud was finally ordered
to leave the Office.
This he refused to do. and thinking
to scare him, the student pulled a
string, and open flew the door where
the skeleton was hidden, and that en-
blem of death spraug out at the boy,
who, frightened half out of his wits,
dropped his basket and seampered
out Of the office, taking up position
on the opposite side of the street to
await further events.
Just then the doctor, "Old Bones.
came from his study, and learning the
cause of the uproar. went to the door
and motioned to the boy to come and
get his wares. ssNo You don't" he
called out, Il know you if you have
got your clothes on.

HULL AND CLaFI.iN STORY.


My Con,p!dininy Thanks
for your good letter Of bad advice.
You say. how easy to give the lie to
the wicked story, and thus end it for
ever.
But stop and consider. The story
is 4 whole library of statements-a
hundred or rnore-and it would be
strange if some Of them are not cor
rect, though | doubt if any are. To
give u general denial to such an
ency clopedia of assertions would be
as vague aud irrelevant as to take up
the Police Gdzete, with It's twenty
four pages Of items. and say. This
Is all u lie" So extensive II libel re-
quires OF answered ut all) special
denial of its several parts; aud fur
tbermore, 1t requires, i'll this particu-
lar case, not only denial OF things
nisstated but truthful explanation
OF other things that remain uns;ated
AMI in mystery. In oiter words, the
false story iii met ut ally should lie
confronted aud confounded by tie
true one.
Now. my friend, You urge me to
speak, but when the truth is u sword
Gods mercy sometimes commands it
shea:hed.
If you think / do not burn to de-
fend my wife aud little ones, YOU
know not the fiery spirit within me.
But my wife's heart is more q fouc-
tain of charity. and queDcehs all re-
sentments.s SIe says: Let there
be no suffering, save to ourselves
alone, and forbids vindication to
the injury of others. From the. be-
ginning she has stood with her hands
on my lips, saying, Hush. So
when you prompt me to speak for
her you counteract her more Chris
tian mandate of silence.
Moreover, after all, the chief VIC
tim of the public displeasure is my
self alone, and SO long as this is
happily the case l shall try, with
patience, to keep my answer within
my own breast. lest it shoot forth'like
tbunderbolt through other hearts.
Yours truly, THEODORE TnToS.
