And Thought the Country Would Do the
Doctor Good.
One of the leading physicians of
Washington is small of stature and very
boyish in appearance, says the Star. A
lady entered bis Office the other day, one
of the bustling sort of women who
never quit talking.
Boy" she said, addressing the physi-
clan, lis the doctor in? But can see he
is not"
HE is in" began the physician, but
the visitor interrupted him.
''Oh, he's in, is he? Then he's en-
gagged. I'll wait. Does he allow you to
sit at his desk that way?"
MADAME"
"Oh, of course, you would say he does,
but I'll warrant you'll catch it, if he sees
you there. You look sort of pale. /
should think the doctor would give you
something to make you stronger.
Your ma ought to send you into the
country. That would make you grow.
How soon do you think the doctor
will be disengaged?"
Madame, 1 tried to tell you before
I do not think you can see the doctor
to-day"
well. I'll come next time I'm in
town. But you ought to quit staying in
this Office and go into the country. Not
that it is any of my business, but do
hate to see boys look so pale and puny."
She disappeared, and the doctor is won
dering what she will say when she calls
next time she comes into the city.

Lesson in Courtesy.
She was an old German woman. No
one knew where she was going, but evil
IDENTIFY some distance, for she carried
an enormous bundle wrapped in news
paper and containing her personal eff
fects. Supernatural gifts of second
sight were not necessary to discover
the last fact, for hardly had the old
woman entered the train before the
contents CT her package were exhib-
tied to the view of the other travel
ers. Newspapers have their uses, but
they were never intended for wrap
ping parcels. The strain and the heat
of the poor old creature > arms had been
too much for it. There was a sound
like the outburst OF q long pent-up
sigh. followed by a shower of neat but
plain garments ~ feminine wearing APP
parel along the aisle, ard a ripple of
laughter which travelled rapidly down
the car. Everyone was interested. That
newspaper was gene, the contents of
the package were scattered. What was
the owner goirg to do? She did not
know any better than the ether pas
sengers. and it was no laughing mat
ter for her. just then a man, who had
been intently reading his paper, looked
up and took i'm the situation at a glance.
He arose quietly. put dowr his paper
and stepped into the aisle. One after
the other he took up the different arti-
cles, rolled them into tight little bun
dies, took his own paper and wrapped
them neatly in it. tied together the
broken string and handed the woman
her package in many times better con-
dition than it was before. She was not
diffusive in her thanks. but her graft
tude was shown in her face. "Oh, tank
you, sir; tank you, sir" she said, as
she sat down, smiling happily, her re-
juvenated bundle clasped tightly in her
arms again.

Levi bradshaw. who lives in the
Sparks district, in kill:ngly, Conn.,, has

count his grandchildren, says the New
York World. Bradshaw emigrated
from Canada and has lived in Killingly
- years. He is now in his roth year.
lie has been married three times and
is the father of Il children. 20 of whom
arc now living. BY his first wife he
had six children, including a pair of
twins. His second wife bore him "a
children, half of whom were twins.
His present wife presented him with IL
children.
Bradshaw was not IA years old when
he married the first time. The eldest
son is now A and has several children
and grandchildren. Twenty-Five of
the old mans sons and daughters are
married and all have children. The
grandfather does not know just how
large his family of grandchildren and
great grandchildren has become. He
can enumerate up to $50. but is in the
dark as to the remainder. He estimates
that they may run up to geo or so.
The Killingly patriarch married his
last wife in Danielson 10 years ago.
Only one out of her IL children has
died. The death occurred at birth
three weeks ago. The rest are healthy
and robust, like the father. Mr.. Brad
shaw is believed to be the banner father
of New England and the banner grand
father of the United States.

Had Fed the Parrot, But She Was Hun
CRY Again.
We are all more or less familiar with
that eXasperating class of individuals
who seem to feel that the simple, COM
mon sense of the world is conferred in
themselves, and that the rest of US are
in need of guidance and direction i'll the
simplest duties of life, says Harper's
Magazine.
Mr.. B. was a young man of this
class. He was always painfully pro-
fuse in details regarding anything he
wished done. He had a parrot
of which he was exceedingly fond, and
when he was about to go abroad for a
few months, leaving his bird behind
him, he bored and exasperated his fam
lily and friends with senseless details re-
garding the care of the parrot, and his
last words, screeched from the deck OF
the steamer that bore him away were:
"TTi, Jim!"
"Whati" shouted the brother on the
pier.
Look out for my parrot!" came faint
ly over the water.
As if this was not enough, he had no
sooner reached Liverpool than he sent
the following cablegram to his brother,
who had assumed charge of the parrot:
BE sure and feed my parrot"
On receipt of this the Infatuated
brother cabled back at his brothers ex-
pense:
81 have fed her, but she is hungry
again. What shall I do next?"

Thousands of men are afraid of the light
ming, and yet not one man in ten thousand
is ever killed by it. Few men are afraid
of consumption, and yet it causes one sixth
of ali the deaths in the world. 1t is more
deadly than either wars or pestilences.
Any sort of wasting disease may lead to
consumption. Any slight disorder of the
respiratory organs may easily develop
it. Weakness of the body, emaciation,
lack of vitality are plain invitations for the
germs of consumption. Consumption is not
entirely disease of the lungs. 1t is dis
ease of the blood that shows itself most
strongly in the lungs. It is not-as 1t used
to be considered DR.. Pierce s
Golden Medical Discovery has changed all
that. It will cure ninety-eight per cent of
all cases of consumption If taken in time.
1t is the most wonderful blood maker and
flesh builder in the world. 1t cures where
doctors have failed. 1t has brought back
to life hundreds of men and women who
were considered as good as dead.
Mrs. Nancy K. Tubb, of Amory, Monroe Co..
Miss. writes: about ten years ago suffered
an attack of nervous prostration resulting II
other troubles which my family physician pro
nounced consumption. We dOctored with him
until we lost all hope. 1 finally happened to find
one of DR.. Pierce's little Memorandum Books,
saw his medicine recommended and thought
would try it; sent and got one bottle of each
Golden Medical Discovery and Favorlte Pre-
scription and one bottle of Pellets. As soon
as began to use these medicines my health be
gan to improve, and before had used one-half
dozen bottles felt almost as strong as ever was.
1 am now enjoying good health again. Two
years ago had little boy who seemed to be sub
ject to phthisic (asthrna) and Thought would
try the Golden Medical Discovery and to my
surprise 1t cured him entirely; he has never had
another attack"
