Annoying to the Physician

There are many peculiarly annoying
features connected with the life of dis
pensary physician which would doubtless
be laughed at if mentioned in the pres
ence of physicians who have never filed
position of this kind. All specimens of
the lower classes call here for treatment,
and some days they come by swarms-
ragged, dirty and degraded tramps and
diseased drunkards- On the outside of
the private Office they sit on the benches
for hours and wait their turns for exam
nation For some reason, probably to
excite sympathy, all of these eleemo-
synaries attempt to get seat where they
can see the physician. There they viii sit
in line on the benches and watch the
physician on every move that he makes.
Their coUntenances are not the most
cheering in the world, and the express
siors show pain and suffering from dis
ease and ssipation, and, in addition,
the paupers purposely wear the most for
lorn and far away lonesome look that
they can assume.
Altogether the steady glare from these
woe begone faces that meets the physi-
clans eye every time he looks up from
his tedious work, is a source Of much ag-
gravation and discomfort. Even when
the physician is making entries in his
ledger he. from a certain inscrutable
power Of the mind, feels that every pau
per's eye is glazing ct him with sickly
expression, and this constant thought be-
comes finally to be horrible incubus
that has something Of the depressing
effect of bad dream. 1t is worrying
thought, as if man were dying in the
next room, or some dreadful calamity
move the cause Of this depressed feeling
large heavy screen was placed around
the physicians private Office. which en-
tirely cuts off the occupants CT the
benches. and is a partial relief.-Dr. B.
Steinmetz In Globe Democrat

mains in the mountains near his retreat,
where nobody could find and disturb them.
On the gallows he cursed Martinique
roundly, and charged him with being the
cause Of his turning his hand against the
law and the people.

A Complaint Against Editors.

A gentleman Of ny acquaintance who
writes for the magazines" has been COM
planning 70 he that the wicked editors
won't leave manuscripts alone. This is
one Of the paradoxes OF literature, it may
be remarked. A writer objects when the
editors leave his MSS so severely alone
that they cannot get into print; ne also
protests when they get into print because
the editor does not favor them with sUfIi-
Gent iaattention- Really, however, my
magazinist is not so unreasonable as he
might appear ac first sight. Il business
terms he objects TO being treated upon
that principle which led Mark Lemon to
blue pencil out Of the rich mans Punch
the most powerful clause il Tom Hoods
arraj gnment Of the rich mans seI6shness
II his Song Of the Shirt" The trouble
with the magazine htteca.eurs is that it
has become G fashion TO dress al manu-
scripts which find favor in those periodi-
Gals with an editorial scalpel- Ny friend
claims that it is almost impossible TO get
an article printed IS il is written

The Supreme Court and the Fish Law

Another of the laws of 1887 has been de-

court. The act killed is the well known
fish law, under which so many people have
got into trouble, the case being brought be-
fore the supreme court by a man who was
convicted at Mt. Clemens Of netting in Lake
St. Clair, and was fined and sentenced to a
term of Imprisonment. The defects in the
law lie in that while it prohibits fishing in
certain ways and in certain specified streams
and lakes, the names of the streams and
lakes so specified are not mentioned in the
title, although they are in the body of the
act. The act is also divided into sections,
and nearly every one specifies a different
penalty. The court ordered the prisoner

JUST THE GIRLS We WANT.
The girls that are wanted are good girls,
Good from the heart to the lips;
Pure as the lily is white and pure,
From it's heart to its sweet leaf tips.
The girls that are wanted are home girls,
Girls that are mothers right hand,
That fathers and brothers can trust too,
And the little ones understand.
Girls that are fair on the hearthstone,
And pleasant when nobody sees;
Kind and sweet to their own folks,
Ready and anxious to please.
The girls that are wanted are wise girls,
That know what to do and to say;
That drive with smile and soft word
The wrath of the household away.
The girls that are wanted are girls of sense,
Whom fashion can never deceive;
Who can follow whatever is pretty,
Ane dare what is silly to leave.
The girls that are wanted are careful girls,
Who count what thing will cost,
Who use with prudent, generous hand,
But see that nothing is lost
The girls that are wanted are girls with
hearts,
They are wanted for mothers and wives;
Wanted to cradle in loving arms
The strongest and frailest lives
The clever, the witty, the brilliant girl,
There are few who can understand;
But. oh for the wise, loving home girls
There's a constant steady demand.

To the kind friends in Morgan and

gave us their support and handsome
majorities for the judgeship, we are

who SO gallantly stood by us in the
minority in the Jefferson Republic"
we are equally thankful. 1t was a
hard fight, and with Jefferson coun-
ty endorsing the nominee of Morgan
and Berkeley, forlorn hope from
the outset. We are thankful to all,
and will resume our place at the trial
table, ever hoping to live long enough
to see the best interests of Jefferson
county so developed and advanced as
to be wrested from under the shadow
of such a dominating majority, that
through its known strength, is sure
to prevent the growth and develop
