1t Didn't Hurt Him, but He
Thought It Did.

A very matter.of-fact young dentist,
who stands high in his profession and
deals as tenderly with his patients as
the nature of his work and the instru-
ments of torture which ne yields will
permit, had long discussion at the
club one evening with q friend, who is
q convert to the mind cure theory
and defends it on all occasions. The
dentist was unsparing in his ridicule
OF this new ''ism," but his friend re-
manned unconvinced, and at a late
hour they parted, agreeing to disagree.
A few days later the dentist had call
from his friend, who had a particular
ly painful tooth. ut needs filing"
said tho dentist, after the usual leis.
urely examination with q miniature
pitchfork. "Of course" he added
there is no real pain and no real cavi-
ty, but, as you think that both exist,
l have got to act on that theory.
I shall not really hurt you although
you may think l do. Just sit still,
and I'll have 1t all over in q few min.
utes." And the dentist with "ghoul-
ish glee," proceeded to ply his trade
with vigor, using rasps, and drills, and
wedges, and gouges, and hooks. ard
punchers and hammers, until tho ter.
rible job was done. did it hurt him?"
the torturer was afterwards asked.
'sN.n.no, I think not, but he thought
il did. He squirmed well."- Boston

Farragut and His Son.

0us09OS 0suN 6uso 0Ouus
While at station on the lower
Mississippi Admiral Farragut gave
orders for the crews of the gunboats
to get their fresh meat from the coun-
try. One day q boat from the Tai
lahatchie landed and the men went
ashore and shot a fine steer, dressed
it and brought it abroad. Admiral
Farragut and his staff were then max
ing the regular tour of inspection and
were on board his vessel, anchored
near by. Capt. Linnekin sent him q
quarter of this beef, and received a
very cordial acknowledgment in re-
turn. It may not be out OF place here
to relate the following anecdote of the
bluff old admiral, which Capt. Lime.
kin gives as follows: "Loyal Farra-
gut was on the deck of his fathers ves-
sci during an engagement, and the
shot and shell were flying around
pretty thick. Loyal would duck his
head when he heard the shells coming,
while his father paced the deck calm
and erect. By and by the admiral
turned to the boy and said, Stand
up, sonny, you can't dodge God al
mighty Cor. Brooklyn Eagle.

The Boy or the Farm.

Z = s5
We were struck With the truth Of
the observations Of Charles Dudley
Warner. when he said: Il IL my i'm
preston that farm without boy
would very soon como to grief. What
q boy does is the life Of the farm. He
is the iactotum, always in de-
mand. and always expected to
do the thousand and one things that
nobody else will do. Upon him fail
the odds and ends, the most difficult
things. After everybody else is through
he is to finish up. His work IL like q
woman's-perpetually waiting on 9th
ers. Everybody knows how much
easier it is to cook q good dinner than
to wash tho dishes afterwards.
Consider what q boy on q farm is
required to do-things that must be
done, or life would actually stop. It
is understood, in the first place, that
he is to do all the errands, to 70 to
the store. to tho post.ofice and
to carry all sorts of messae.
es. II he had as many legs as

night. He is the one who spreads the
grass as the men cut it; he slows it
away in the barn; he rides the horse
to cultivate the corn up and down the
hot, weary rows; he picks up the po-
tatoes when they are dug; he brings
wood and water and splits kindling;
he gets up the horse and turns out
the horse. Whether he is in the house
or out OF the house, there is always
something to do.
just before school, in the winter. he
shovels paths; in the summer he turns
the grindstone. Aud yet, with his
mind full Of schemes of what he
would like to do, and his hands full of
occupation, he is an idle boy who has
nothing to busy himself with but
schools and chores. He would gladly
do all the work if somebody else
would do all the chores, he thinks;
and yet, doubt if any boy ever
amounted to anything in the world,
or was of much use as g man, who
did not enjoy the advantages of
liberal education in the way Of chores.
