DOctorinC a Pugilist.

A pugilist, well known in Cleveland
as IL good talker, but poor fighter, once
went to a local physician and complained
of d peculiar nervous sensation that pre-
vented him from sleeping well. The
doctor was well acquainted with the
pugilistic gentleman, and thought to
spring a little joke upon him. He filed
in a prescription blank calling for ''terra
alba" powders to be taken three times a
day. The man of the manly art went to
a drug, store near the corner of Detroit
and Pearl streets to have the prescrip-
ton filled.
Say" said he to the clerk who was
waiting upon him, "wot is dis here terry
alloy, anyhow"
Sand" was the brief and laconic an
swer.
"Wot are ye givin' u.s." said the pug-
list.
Sand" was the reply.
The prize fighter met the doctor day
or two afterward, and told him what
the apothecary's assistant had said.
''Is it true, doc, that it was sand?" he
asked.
YES" said the doctor; lone kind of
sand"
You make me weary, you do" said
the pugilist, as the point of the joke be-
gan to penetrate his intellect. "You
don't git no more of my trade. Seer

An old colored woman stood at the

Hunger and Disease,

II is n well known fact that hunger pre-
disposes TO certain diseases, says The Med
ical Press. but IL has been reserved 20 two
Turin doctors TO demonstrate the in
creased liability experimentally. Their OBJ
servations were carried out with the virus
of bacillus anthrax on pigeons. n disease tn
which these birds are. under ordinary cir
cumstances. refractory. They found. how
ever, that six days total deprivation OF
food rendered the birds amenablC TO the
virus, on condition that food was still
withheld II. however. food WAS given at
the same time as the virus then they still
successfully resisted infection Further,
when starvation was continued for two
days after the incubation, aud food then
given. the development OF the disense,
though not prevented, ran a slower course.
lastly, the virus proved capable of infect
ing birds well fed up to the date Of inocu
lation. but starved subsequently,. The
line of investigation is evidently one which
admits Of further research, but the moral
is obvious.

OF ONE WE LOVE OR HATE.

In old Assist, Francis loved so well
His Lady Poverty, that TO his heart
He pressed her heart, nor felt the deadly
smart
From lips OF frost, nor saw the fire of hell
From lurid eyes that fevered Dante's cell.
And parches souls who. hating, feel her dart
He chose her, and he dweit with her apart.
The two were one, iuumined through Loves
spell;
He loved her, and she glowed, lambert star:
He loved her, and the birds came at his call
Her frosts were pearls. her face was fair to
see,
He sang his lady's praises near and far;
He saw our world as Adam ere the fall
So Love transfgures even Poverty.

How q Mean Little Man stopped Col

It was a jolly party from college
ylee club. That the members of it
were In a iovial-not to say hilarious
mood was evident from the fact that
they wanted to sing regardless of the
feelings or convenience of other oecu-
pants of the room; that they were from
a college was apparent from the fact
that they sang college songs; and that
they were members of a glce club was
apparent from the fact that they sang
well together.
OF course no one but crank or man
with a bad liver would find fault with
college boys for making noise, but
there was little man at one of the ia
bles who was just mean enough to OBJ
iect. He was trying to tell story, bu-
every minute or two the young fellows
laid aside their champagne long enough
to interrupt with a song.
Finally the little sourfaced man grew
desperate, and, calling the proprietor o
the place to him, asked why he permit
ted so much noise.

the reply.
But the little man wasn't satisfied
and when four of the young fellows go
