young physician who has had an
amusing experience in connection with the
smallpox scare, tells an excellent story
on himself. Last week he was summoned
Washington, where he found an italian someA
what under the weather. There were three
children in the family, who were also confined
to their beds and, of course Immediately the
young physician announced to the Italian
that not only must he be vaccinated without
further loss OF time but that the three
children must be attended to in the same
manner. Thereupon the Italian in the con-
sternation of despair at having had his
message misunderstood broke out into vol
umes of broken English declaring by all the
saints it was not for himself nor the children
he had sent for the physician. but that his
monkey, who represented the sum OF $500,
might be vaccinated. Expostulation availed
nothing with the excited son of the land of
garlic and olives 1t was for his monkey that
he had sent for the physician, it was for the
monkey he feared the effects of the smallpox,
and it was first and last for his monkey that
the vaccine virus was TO be used. The young
physician was equally determined that moth
ing, no amount of eloquence or persuasion
would induce him to vaccinate the monkey.
Notwithstanding the fact that the little beast
represented to the organ grinder the mighty
sum of $500.
