Jacksonville Citizen: A story is told by a
member Of the medical profession in the city
which happened during his rounds one day
last week. The doctor was called to make
visit to a colored woman in one OF the suburbs
OF the city, and upon arriving at the house
found his patient in bed. He spoke pleasantly
TO the sick woman. and noticing that she was
lying at the farther side Of the bed asked her
TO move over TO the front where he could see
what was the matter with her. The doctor
states that he observed that she was rather
reluctant to comply with his request, and
sound OF the peep, peep OF young chickens.
He inquired OF the womnn where the chickens
were, and to his surprise was told that she
had them In ned with her.
Got them in red with you:" said the
doctor. in a surprised tone Of voice.
What have you got them IN bed with you
for;' The woman thereupon explained that
she had hen that had been setting, but had
left the nest Just Us the chickens were com
mencing TO hatch, so she concluded to take
the eggs to bed with her and keep them warm
so they would hatch out. This she did by
states that her experiment was rewarded by
three chickens being Matched out while he
was there, Z his mode Of matching chickens is
novel, to say the least.

The father was tall, spare, II little

and in his mauno and about his person
