herself from personal abuse if she has

A Lost Fee.

DIR. Jones' wife was awakened by a noise
in her room the other night, and when she
sat up in bed she saw the doctor standing
over the armchair in the room. He had a
towel tied around one of the legs of the
chair, and with hand saw he was cutting
it in half. Mrs. Jones exclaimed:
Henry, what in the name of common
sense are you doing?"
.H-s-s-h,' . replied the doctor, you'll wake
the patient. You hold the chloroform to
his nose while take his leg off. I'm about
half through the bone now"
Then Mrs Jones got out of bed and shook
him and pinched him until he woke. Then
he exclaimed:
"How's the patient?''
Mrs. Jones merely said, Come to bed,
you idiot. and stop hacking up the furni-
ture"
Gracious, Maria,'' said the doctor he
collected his scattered senses, do you know
l Thought was in the hospital saving off a
leg that had compound fracture? There's

And Jones went to bed feeling as if he
was an injured man at having lost that
money.-Boston Courier
