THE DOCTORS STORY.


For the last three weeks have beer
tending an old schoolmate of mine
His name is VIII Holbrook and
he has been very low with brain
fever. He was at one time quite
we'll off, but lost every thing by
an unluclly speculation, and was forced
to accept a clerkship with one of the
firms with which he had formerly done
business. A too steady application to
his duties, coupled with great depres
sion of mind, brought on his illness
which has threatened to terminate
fatally more than once.
noticed just before he gave up how
badly he was looking, and one evening
when he called at my Office he confided
every thing to me. The loss of every
thing he possessed was naturally q
heavy blow to him, but it was nothing
in comparison to what it had brought
with 1.-THE breaking off of his engage.
ment with the woman he loved.
Her name was Nena God frey, and
they had been engaged for about year.
AS soon as her father heard of the
change in Willis affairs, he wrote to
him, giving him to understand that he
could no longer regard him as future
son-in-law. On learning, however, that
Miss Godfrey's heart was unchanged
toward him, Will determined not to
give her up, and to mako every effort in
his power to regain his ost fortune as
quickly as possible.
When he was taken sick had him
brought to my house; and, during his
delirium, he would keep asking for
Nena; then he would imagine that she
was with him and would implore her
not to leave him. Late yesterday after
noon he became so much worse, and
begged so piteously for her to come to
him that sent Miss Godfrey tele-
gram, and about II o'clock in the morn
ing was informed that she was wait
ing for me in the Office. / went to her
at once.
She attempted to rise as l entered the
room but sank back on her chair as
though completely exhausted ! at
tributed this to perturbation, and
hastened to quiet her fears about Will.
She insisted upon seeing him without
delay
viii seemed to be consc GUS of her
presence the moment she knelt by his
bedside and took his hand. He became
more composed, and at last sank into a
doze, still holding her hand. This
lasted until midnight, and then he
opened his eyes and / saw that he
would live. He spoke her name in u
whisper, and tried to raise her hand to
his lips. She made no sound, but gave
him look Of love and tenderness that
he understood at once, and he closed his
eyes again as though her mere presence
was all he asked. After he had lost
himself, Miss Godfrey looked up at me,
and the expression on my face told her
the glad truth. The next instant she
had tainted. j carried her into the ad-
joining room and called my wife. She
came to my assistance at once, and.
after we had worked over Miss Godfrey
for few moments, she opened her eyes
and said, with faint smile:

trouble, but think my arm is hurt, and
that is what made me faint The train

After we got started / looked across
at the gal. She was starin' straight

was terrible pale and her teeth was set

was frightened. She had somethin'
else on her mind.

Hope for Women Future.

When we find girls whose average
weekly wages is s5.25, women whose av-
erage age is less than 23, and of whom
by far the greater number are under 1s,
banding themselves together to secure
through their clubs opportunities for
education and Improvement that they
have missed through the exigencies OF
their condition; when we find that il
addition to and even before such in
struction in practical things-dress-
making cooking, first aid 10 the injured
AS would make their work more profit
able or life easier to them, they are
eager to develop their intellectual fac
ulties, and to acquire the amenities of
life; that most OF them care before all
things to grow morally and socially,
using the latter word in itsIbest sense,
then indeed we are led to be hopeful for
the future, even of a social state in
which the toll of women and children
seems to be more and more matter of
grim necessity. illustrated American.

bismarck at seventy Five.

The Prince is of giant stature and his
proud and aristocratic bearing increases
his height. Although seventy-6ve years
old, the ''Man Of Iron" carries himself as
straight as the centenarian birch trees of
his forest, and his corpulence is inexact
proportion with his stature. His fore
head is frowning and wrinkled. his nose
we'll formed, with large nostrils, and
bends slightly to the right. What
struck me the most in his imposing
physiognomy were his deep eyes of a
mountain-like blue, and sheltered by q
forest of boldly erect hair. The lower
part of his face harmonizes with the
upper. His mouth has smile which is
at once ironical and kind. 1t opens
wide enough to let pass a hollow voice,
slow and interrupted. One would think
it to be the echoof solemn and distant
oracle. Prince Bismarck speaks French
as easily as German, but his words man

How This River Came TO BE Put In the

The following story is published by a
correspondent in the Philadelphia Press
of yesterday: .c
"Did YOU ever hear how 'Suwanee

"Don't think 1 ever did.
"Well, Step Foster-Stephen 6. Eos
ter was his full name-was IN the zenith
of his popularity when he wrote the
words, said my friend TO mt. " He had
written the song in the frame house on
Sandusky street in Allegheny. but he
couldn't find the name OF n river that
suited him. Finally he went to the Office
of his brother, Morrison Foster, sat
down on his desk and said, Morrison,
I've got q new darky song here and its
complete except the name OF the river.
| want a southern river with only two
or three syllables. Give me one, wont
you ?
morrison suggested several, but they
didn't suit. Then he took down an atlas,
ran his eye over map of the southern
States for few minutes, and finally said,
Here's river in Florida by the name
of Suwanee, how viii that do
"'That's it, that's it, exclaimed the
song-writer, jumping from the desk.
ITS Just what ] want, and picking up
n pen he inserted the name of the river
that has SINCE become the title OF one OF
the sweetest and most pathetic OF melo-
dies. believe that Stephen G. Foster
never thought very much of the piece
himself until after it had taken its place
among the popular songs Of the CEN
tury."
