THE SECRET.


We are not very fond Of a secre5,
For much mischief Il sometimes may cause
We'd rather be free and outspoken
Than hesitate, quibble and pause.
Buthere is 3 secret that's pleasant
You may read it in Jessies bright smiles
You may know little Charlie is telling
Her something devoid Of all lguile.
Poor dolly now seems quite forgotten,
As Jessie bends eagerly near,
While charles makes the most of ais inches
To reach up 20 close to her ear,
he looks so intent, and 80 earnest
As he whispers IN Innocence Iurs;
And what 1t is now he's revealing
Is in confidence, you may be sure.
SO We only can guess at the secret:
Perhaps, in this sweet month Of May.
Mamma has holiday promised,
To be spent1n the woodlands so gay,
Where the butterflies, bees, and the brides
Are all in the height Of their icv:
And this may be what Jessie IL hta~ing
From that earnest and bright little hoy.

A Doctor with Too Many Patients.


Prof. Virehow, the celebrated Berlin
! physiologist, went one season to Asia
Minor for the sake of rest and recrea-
ton, and passed large part of his vaca-
| ton at Hissarlik; on the invitation of
DR.. Schliemann. On his arrival st His
sarlik he found several Of the working
men engaged OF the excavations suffer
ing from an obstinate fever, and al
! though it was long since he gave up praes
tice, he took them under treatment. He
cured them, and Immediately his repu-
tatfCn as 8 magician was established
there; and, as there were many sick
people everywhere in Asia Minor, and
nowhere doctor or an apotheCary, the
fame Of the great magician spread with
great rapidity from village to village.
Every morning when Vifch6W left the
little wooden shanty in which he slept
he found Arst few persons, then
crowd, and at last mass of people ed.
camped in front of the door, and wait
ing patiently, but With eager G1anees.
for his appearance. To send them
away was impossible, for they needed
his help sOrely ,and they had often come
from very long distances, on foot, on
horseback, on camels, or carried on lit
ters and in baskets, But to help them
involved an almost complete Sacrifice
Of rest and recreation, for they were /
many, and the consultation generally
demanded the employment of two or
three interpreters. The sacrifice was
made, however, and it has an odd re-
suit. For the purpose of making some
geological observations, Virchow had /
o hole dug in the bed Of a dried-up
river in the, heighborhood, and people /
noticed that, Until the hole filed up
with water, the magician every de5
climbed down there and made some GU
rious researches by means of lighted
candle. As soon as Virohow had left
Hissarlik people assembled around the
hole, lined its sides with neat brick
work and marble, baptized il "Tit-
elbows Well" and began to bring their
sick to his well, to be cured by drinking
its water and by ablutions. ..-
