A PHYSICIANS Night Call.

A story of a nocturnal visit is told
with great glee by one of Philadelphia :
eminent practitioners, as joke OH him
self. He had been up for several
nights with patients, and one evening
went to his couch with the determina-
ton that he would go out that night
for no one. About a. IN. his nigh:
bell sounded.
"What's wanted?" he called down
the tube.
'Doctor, my wife's ill, and wants
you" was the reply.
81 cannot go. You will have to get
some one else"
''But, doctor, she won't have any
one else"
81 can't help it. She will have to,
for L will not 60"
"Oh, doctor, please come. She's very
ILL.,"
"Well, where is it7" relenting lit
tie.
"Out Darby Road"
"Then 1 certainly can't CO." decid
'edly; ''it's too far"
''Oh, but, doctor, my wife want.
YOU" pleajirgly.
"Well, get carriage and I'll CO.
came the tired response.
ooh, but can't afford a carriage p
.'Well, then, that settles it. Iwon',
gG>yithout one. Good night"
The physician returned to his slum-
bers. About ten minutes later wheels
ratified up to his door and again sound
ed the bell.
"Well, what is it?"
doctor, here's the carriage"
The now thoroughly maddened ano
awakened physician dressed and wen,
with the man. About two hours later,
when the carriage brought him home,
much to his surprise he was requested
by the driver to "settle up"
"Why, the man that hired you paid
you"
"Not much he didn't, sir. He said
that you would when we got back
here" answered the driver.
The doctor had to pay for the use OF
double carriage from half-past one
to half-past three. The case was one
from which he obtained no fee, SO re.
venge is out of the question.

GOOD THOUGHTS.

If a man be gracious to strangers it
and his heart is no inland, cut off from
other islands, but continent that
joins them.
The power to hate truly what is evil
must involve the power to love truly
what is good, and must, indeed, us
ually precede the growth of the highest
kind of love.
This country longs for personalities
grand persons, to counteract its
materialities. For ii is the law of the
universe that corn shall serve man,
and not man corn.
The avaricious man is like the bar
ren, sandy ground of the desert, which
sucks in all the rain and dews with
greediness, but yields no fruitful herbs
or plants for the benefit of others.
We are to know that we are never
without pilot. When we know not
how to steer, and dare not hoist sail,
we can drift. The current knows the
way though we do not. The ship of
heaven guides itself and will not ac-
cept a wooden rudder.
Truth often finds its way to the
mind close muffied in robes of sleep,
and then speaks with incorporating
directness of matters in regard to
which we practice an unconscious
self-deception during our waking mo
ments.
Socrates designates beauty as short
lived tyranny; Plato a privilege of
nature; Theophrastus, a silent cheat ;
Theocritus, q delightful prejudice; ;
Csrnesdes, q solitary kingdom: DOM
titan said that nothing was more
grateful; Aristotle affirmed that beauty
was better than all the recommenda-
tons in the world; Homer, that it was
q glorious gift of nature; and Ovid,
alluding to him, calls it favor bestow-
d by Tie KQds.

A Bang Up POst.Office.

a new Postmaster was appointed
last spring for one of the villages be-
low Atlantic City on the Jersey coast,
and about June people began to write
to the two hotels there for rooms and
rates. Answers were received from
only a small per cent. of the letters,
and great deal of anxiety and trouble
was the consequence. Among others
who finally went down to see what was
the matter was Philadelphia broker,
and upon reaching the town he went
directly TO the Post-office. 1t was
little 7x9 affair in the rear end of a
grocery store, and after introducing
himself the broker said:
Il have written several letters to the
Seaside Hotel here and received no an
swer. l have several friends who also
made the same complaint"
''How long ago was this:"
"About a month";"
''Ah! yes: well, your letters proba-
bly, went to the Dead Letter Office"
"But why9 Were they not called
for?'
"Oh, yes, but 1 started in here de-
termined to do my duty. The last
Postmaster was removed because he
hadn't sent dead letter to Washing
ton during his whole term of office,
and during the first four weeks OF
mine l sent off ninety-six. I've got
about fifty more ready to go to-day,
but after this | shall hold up for awhile
and deliver all that come. I'm going
to run this office bang up and city
style or I'm going to get out. Good
day, sir.r-Detroit Free Press.

A fashionable CAT Home" towards
the end of the London season. A large
company was present, for Mrs. FItz-

popular. A great Russian tenor, the
lion of the day. had been singing "Once

sionate voice had died away, and the
buzz of laughter, of criticism and con-
yersation, had broken forth afresh. In
one of the deep windows knot of young
men were gathered together.

He Would be Eligible.

This paragraph, In one form or another,
has been going the rounds Of the Eastern
press. Now 1t has reached the far West,
and we find it In the editorial columns Of so
intelligent newspaper ne the Nebraska
State Journal:
"Ths rumor that Mr. Fisss7 will be pushed forward
Presidential candidate in % in case he is success
fnl In the subsrnatorai race in New York this fall Is
very easily disposed Of lie viii not DO forty years OF
the constitutional requirement. until year after
:!ie next Pfesident is elected"
We supposed that everybody knew that
the constitutional requirement az to the age
OF the President Of the United States was
thlrty.ilve years, not forty.
Mr.. JACOB SnoAT FAssrTT Is eligible in
this respect. He has been eligible since
Nov. H. 1885, People who really want to
SEQ him In the White House need not trouble
themselves about his age.
That Is not what will keep the Hon. j.
SLoAT FAssETT out OF the Office.

compelled to yield their preference to tho
preference OF majority Of the Convention
for another candidate.
That they should experience strong
sense Of disappointment is natural enough !;
but tho Democracy OF Kings county will blot
most fair and honorable political record II
they permit any feelings Of regret or chagrin
to lessen their loyalty to the State ticket
which hns been nominated ut Saratoga
When delegation goes into Convention
and stays in tho Convention to the end II Is
under the most solemn sort OF obligation
which can be implied in political matters to
support tho candidates who shall be nomi-
mated by the majority. Before tho Conven-
ton and in tho Convention tho delegates
havo the utmost liberty 10 express
their preferences and dlslikes, aud to
give such reasons as they can why
1t would be wise TO nominate one candidate
and unwise to nominate another. But when
tho Convention has finally acted, oil those
who have remained members Of the body
and participated In It's deliberations and In
the various votes by which the result has
been reached, arc morally bound to abide by
that result. They must then put out OF
sight all previous differences for tho benefit
Of tho purity, aud turn un!tediy to face the
common foe.
These arc the views which ought to be and
doubtless are entertained by all good Demo-
Gratis in Kings county. Notwithstanding
their disappoint ment that Mr.. CHAPLIN was
not put at the head Of the ticket. They un-
derstand that Mr.. FLOWER is entitled to the
