left him hangn' to the apple tree all
night. And in the mornln he released him
only on two conditions. One was that
Death wouldn't be in a hurry comm for
him again. but would let him live a nat
ural tarm; an the other that it would give
him to know the saieret of whether a sick
person was goin to die or get well. Death
was only too glad TO grant Dan Maloney
these conditions. He agreed to let Dan
now live his natural tarm and he told
him, moreover. how to know whether a
sick person was goln' to get well or not
when you" says Death to Dan Ego into
the room of a sick person give to you
the power of SEEM me. and you're to look
to see whether 1 stand by the sick mans
head or his feet. If I'm standin' by his
feet, that names he'll get we'll but If I'm
standn' by his head all the docthors in
Europe won't cure that man. He's booked
for me-" Then Dan REALISED him, and poor
Death hobbled off as best he could after
his nights airin'
''And now Dan MalOuey pitched his bud
get to the dickens, cursed tinkerin' ana
quit IL, and announced himself as a doc
tor fit to cure all things durable. And
short time he was at the doctorin' afore
his name and his fame as a wonderful
great doctor spread entirely far and wide,
not alone over ireland, England and Scot
Bekase, whenever Dan Maloney was CALI
ed in to see a sick man, he at wanst pro-

that man was sartn to be cured; and IL
Dan said mo man can cure him." that
man was sartin 10 die. Wan single pre-
dictiOn of Dams was never known
to foil. So it was little wonder
his practice grew great and fast He
never made a smaller charge than gum

his own riches The poor Dan never
charged, or wouldn't accept nothin' from
but always give to them his sarvices free.
Princes and praylits, councillors and kings
from all arts and parts called for Dan Ma

guards Of honor ridin afore him and be.
hind him, through many's country Of
Europe. And at last he come to be con
