A Deceived Man.

At Q O'Clock yesterday afternoon o
tall young man, who was mostly COM
posed of q linen duster and q Roman
nose. placed a small stand under tho
wning OF n store on Avenue A, deposited
on the stand two or three queer-looking
glass bulbs filled with red liquid. and be-
gan to cry out:
Now, then, have your blood tested
fer only n nickel The only certain test
known TO medical science. and the Only
one approved by the leading physicians OF
America!'
1t was hot day, and no one seemed to
care about his blood, and the young man
had been crying out for quarter OF IN
hour before any one had the curiosity TO
stop. The caller was a solid little man
with grip, and he got of q street-car on
purpose to call. II the owner of the
bulbs had looked at him closely he would
have seen something like pounded glass,
mixed with carpet-tacks, in each eye, but
he was not an observing man, and ho was
also busy crying out
Come right up aud have your blood
testedl Never fails to show you the ex-
act condition of tho blood. and IL the
only test used by the celebrated doctors
of Europe and Americal"
"She tests, does she ?" inquired the
solid man ns he put down his grip.
She does. Take this bulb In your
hand. II your blood is nll right the fluid
will rush into the other compartment.
Never fails, ehp"
Never. sir"
Recommended by all medical men "
by all of 'em, sir. What's the mat
ter with you'll"
The matter is that I'm going to give
you the all-fredest licking an internal
old fakir ever got " replied the other as
he took of his coat.
What for?"
Because had my blood tested by
that blamed thing two weeks ago on
Houston street, and you said had the
best blood in New York. Same night a
rash broke out all over me. Three days
later boil came on my leg. and I've Just
got back from Syracuse, where doctor
told me that had the hives and had got
to drink buttermilk nil the rest of the
Summer. Prepare to be lickedl"
But couldn't"-
He didn't finish. The solid mau kicked
the table sky high. tho bulbs camo down
TO scatter their contents over the fings,
and the young man with the Roman nose
jumped over two children and an ice
cream cart and fed swiftly away in search
of some shady dell whore madness enters
not,
The bloomin' idea of It'll" growled the
solid man, as he put on his coat and
pulled down his vest. "The bloomin'
blasted idea of my blood bein' the blood
lest in all New York, with goose pimples
standin' out all over me. md boils pop
ping out like peas from pod"
And when he had gone away q butcher
gathered up the broken legs of the table
the barefooted children tracked up the
medical science" with their dirty feet
and Avenue A returned agnin to its per.

Think How the Infants Suffer This
Hot Weather.
THE SUBSCRIPTIONS.

July is almost upon us, and the free doctors
must soon start upon their rounds in the
haunts OF poverty, seeking babes who arc suf-
fering from the many maladies that hot
weather brings.
Such cases are not hard TO md. They are
only too plentiful, and every large tenement
house shelters from one to dozen babes who
are writhing in pain or gradually wasting
away with some common disease, which II
taken In time yields readily to the proper
treatment.
The parents are too poor TO employ physi-
clan, and they do what they can TO nourish
the feeble spark of life in their beloved child.
The free doctors In such cases are looked
upon as angels OF goodness, and there are
hundreds OF poor mothers to-day who bless
the charitable readers OF THE EVENING
WORLD for having been instrumental in saw
ing their babes from untimely graves.
Send what you con to the fund, be It large
or small, and for a reward enjoy the concious-

French dressmakcrs are making bodices In
two extremes, one almost primitive in Its
simplicity, the other most elaborate and com
plicated. The former type Is tailor-made and
fitted with great art and perfection. Back
and front the bodice is cut down on deep v,
which ends just above the chest. The chemi-
sette worn beneath depends entirely on the
material composing the gown, and is gener-
ally gathered back and front. When the dress
Is of heavy material like cloth, the under-bod-
ice is made Of some fabric that can be braided,
and there Is then OF course no shirring. on
art gowns very rich tri-colored brocade is
used

Mixed Children.
A famous Chicago lawyer once had q
singular case to settle, says the Boston
Gazette. A physician came to him in
great distress. Two sisters, living in the
same house, had babies of equal age, who
SO resembled each other that their own
mothers were unable to distinguish them
when they were together.
Now it happened that by the careless
ness of the nurses the children had be-
come mixed. and how were the mothers to
make sure that they received back their
own infants?
But perhaps, " said the lawyer, 'the
children weren't changed at all.
"Oh, but there's no doubt that they
were changed" said the physician.
Are you sure of it?"
Perfectly"
well, ii that's the case. why don't
you change them back again? don't 800
any difficulty in the case. J."
