The old Man Was Cured.

"Talk about curing people of baG habits, one of the funniest cases ever knew occurred on the south side some years ago" said Detective Thomas Nc Quaide. "There was an old fellow over there who would insist on fussing with his wife, who would invariably give him the worst of it. Then he would run up stairs and hang out of the second story window, holding to the ledge, shouting like wildtire that he was going to drop and kill himself. Of course the wife would relent and set up a noise that would bring out the neighbors for blocks, and the man would be pulled in the window by friends.
 This got to be coming too frequently, and some of the boys who lived near, and who had loosened several juints in their spines at different times pulling him in, decided to stop it. One fine day 1t came again. The old fellow hung out of the window, shouting that he would surely jump and end it all; the wife came rushing into the street in mysteries, and the neighbors ran as before to pull him up. The first man who got there hit the mans fingers with stick, mak. ing him loosen his hold, and, to the horror of all, he dropped to the hard pavement with howl that was pitifnl, He was not badly hurt, but it cured him of that bad habit.

It never occurred to me until the other morning that it was not to see me that young fellows kept dropping In to play cards and make themselves agree able l tumbled at last but 1t was my hunting dog Jack that opened my eyes,"
 "Your hunting dog" echoed the crowd.
 "Yes. I had heard of nearly every kind of plan for the communication of lovers except a dog. In this case Jack became Cupid's messenger. Those boys borrowed the dog ostensibly to go hunting, but l have learned since that they didn't know a gun from a hoe handle.
