Wednesday morning the boil had
reached perfection and would have
taken the prize at any county fair. The
color was deep red, and the hardness
was akin to November pear. Mr..
Bowser took up position on the broad
of his back on the lounge and only
moved when fresh poultices were ap-
piled or the cat set up wall. Seeing
that he was helpless. the cook decided
TO stay on, but held herself ready for
any sudden emergency. Along toward
evening Mr.. Bowser delivered a brief
address on Lucrezia Borgia. 1t was
leveled at Mrs. Bowser, and she under
stood.
Friday morning Mr.. Bowser got up
with bad hump on his back, and as
he ate his tea and toast he requested
Mrs. Bowser to telephone for a lawyer
to draw up his will and added with
considerable zest that he should leave
every dollar of his possessions to found
an asylum for tramps. She telephoned,
but the lawyer had gone off on an
early fishing excursion, and his office
boy declined the job. The cat was
barred out of the room all day and
word was sent to the cook that if she
didn't stop banging the dishpan about,
the hand of justice would clutch her
throat with merciless grasp. There
were moments when Mr.. Bowser want
ed Mrs. Bowser to hold his hand and
promise that she would visit his last
resting place once a week during the

Mr.. Bowser was Still alive when Sat
urday morning dawned, and, although
he announced that his end was near,
he insisted on creeping down stairs TO
his favorite lounge. Mrs. Bowser had
used up five pounds of haXseed and Il
pint of arnica on the boil. but was still
hard at work and making no com

ing to poison. The afternoon waned
and evening came, and it was neces-
sary for Mrs. Bowser to visit the drug
store after more flaxseed. The drug
gist was Il kind hearted man, and he
did his best to cheer her. He had had
thirty years experience in the drug
business. and in all that time he had
never known boil on the back of the
neck to prove fatal. Such n boil, taken
in conjunction with head on collision,
the collapse of building or an earth
quake shock, had brought about direful
results, but alone by itself was not
greatly TO be feared. Mrs. Bowser re-
turned home in more cheerful spirits,
and as she softly opened the front door
she was alarmed to hear Mr.. Bowser
topical song. At the door of the sit
ting room she beheld him cavorting
about with the cat in his arms and the
bandages off his neck, and as she cried
out in alarm he turned and shouted:

Mr.. Bowser's boil had broken, and
death had passed him by. He cackled
and laughed and chucked her under
the chin; but, suddenly remembering
his policy, he drew himself up stiffly
and said:

you can instruct your lawyer to see

He started for his Office carrying his

his eye as he banged the hall door

thing is?'' he demanded as he sat down
on The lounge and lifted his hand to

He stared at her fixedly for half a
minute and then bent such ferocious
look on the family cat, who stood eying
him with anxiety, that the animal ut

Mrs. Bowser at once went down to the
kitchen to make a fiaxseed poultice,
and, although it was evident that Mr..
Bowser regarded her as a would be
murderess. she got his collar and tie
off and the poultice on after little
argument. He had no appetite for
dinner, and during the long evening he
dozed and muttered and threw out
dark hints.
Tuesday morning the boil was almost
full blown, and Mr.. Bowser went about
with his head down as if hunting Tor

he had ten fresh poultices. and Mrs.
