AN UNDERTAKER'S STORY.
How q "Dead" Painter Proved Himself to
BE Lively Corpse.

A Third avenue undertaken, sitting
drowsily in his half-lightod doorway
night before last, said to me: MY
business not only accustoms me to the
presence OF the dead, but makes me
calm in the presence of that still great
er horror, the coming to life again of
what was supposed to be corpse.
Five or six years ago painter who
was painting the outside of a house,
somewhere in the business part of the
city, fell from his staging to the pave
ment. distance Of about thirty feet.
Physicians were summoned, but in a
few moments pronounced him dead.
He was brought to my place, and |
laid him out temporarily, in my back
room, with several other corpses.
That evening was sitting at my desk
in my front office, writing, when l
heard some one moving in the dead
room; and Hooked around just in time
to see the painter open the door, and
lean weakly up against the jamb. As
his face was battered and covered with
blood, and his clothing half off, he
presented what might be called a
ghastly spectacle. But did my heart
stand still, and did great drops of cold
sweat roll from my marble brow? Not
much. went up to the man, took
hold of him, laid him on a sofa. and
went for doctor. The doctor came
and administered restoratives, aud in
another hour the painter was in his
cot at the county hospital. In about
ten days he got about and is now as
healthy a man as lives in Chicago.
That shows that the doctors can make
mistakes about a man being dead; but
it doesn't show that can be fooled.
for hadn't dress the painter, and
therefore hadn't noticed him closely.
Nobody can pass a live man off on me
for a corpse. Chicago Journal.
