the Disadvantage of Being a Medic .,

Times, aside from mere inconvenience
arising from living in such a country.
In prescribing medicines not only is

A creepy Kind of SMeet heart

Paris Letter to London Telegraph:
From a country town comes the story
Of girl who had lest by death three
men to whom she WAS successfully en-
gagged. In the first instance the youth,
to whom she had been betrothed for
year and half, expired on the very
eve of the wedding. In the second,
another young man, to whom she had
been engaged soon after the melan-
choly event, died few days before the
marriage, and his successor in her af-
fections has row shared a similar fate.
1t seems th3t sundry ancient females
of the heighborhood, attribu ing this
series OF calamities to the fact that the
young woman has the "evil eyc," have
calmly suggested that the only remedy
Is to be found in burning her alive.
On that score she need have no fear, of
course, but the general opinion is that
her chances of meeting with a fourth
sutton are now infinitesimal The un-
luck gir' is described as being of an
amia..e and sympathetic disposition.
and as being, moreover. of very attrac
tive appearance.

one year while sojourning in Western
Texas. One night in midsummer a
party of us were camping out on the
prairie of Llano county, when We were
awakened by the screams of colored
boy who had been taken along to cook
for the outfit. He said that something
aad bitten him, and examination
showed that his hand was pretty badly
torn. There were unmistaka BILE evil
dences of a skunk in the vicinity, and
there was no doubt that it had done
the deed.
1.-THE sequel is that a few days later
the boy died most horrible death OF
