try One day she was riding In the
cars with Mohammedan doctor. She
asked him what kind he was-an allo-
pathist, homeopathic or an osteo-
path. He answered, 81 don't know"
DR.. Caldwell asked him how he prac,
ticed and what kind of medicine he
gave. Opening up box he carried, he
exhibited seven bottles containing Hq-
uids of all the colors of the rainbow.
You see" said the Mohammedan
doctor, fever makes the patient red.
and then | give him red medicine. A
cold makes him blue, and then I give
him blue medicine. II he is bilious, he
is yellow, and then | give him yellow

end. She remarked. You must be q

THE HOUSE SURGEON.


All the principal hotels in New York
employ house surgeon. They do not
pay him a salary, but merely provide
him with a sleeping apartment and Of
| fee. In return he treats the ills and
aches Of the staff, from the head men
down to the kitchcnmaid. This is not
q particularly easy task. as there are
| from 800 to 500 men and women on
the pay roll of til" large hotels. Hard
ly day passes that he does not pre-
scribe for Il score or more of the en-
ployeps. Cuts. falls, bruises, Scalds
and scratches follow each other with
rapidity that would give nervous pros
traton to auy one whose training did
not fit him to cope with just such CON
tingcncies, says the New York Times.
TO the hotel guests the house surgeon
is n necessity. Transicnts from out Of
town frequently need his services.
Some of them who have been dining
not wisely. but too well, summon him
to straghtcn them out Women who
overeat and overShop are good custom
ers. Then there are the hyStpricHl wom-
who insists that she has been poisoned
just because too free an indulgence in
ice water has made her feel unt'Onl-
Portable.
To all these the house surgeon is a
boon and a blessing and as fines inya-
ri0bly reward lin with Il fat f." he
does not grumble when reused from
his beauty sleep. He aims to be all
things to all men. When his patient
happens to be Il rabid hoHooHatAist.
he does not air his private views on
the superiority of allopathy. or vice
versa.
But it is when an attempt at suicide
Is made that the house surgeon is most
useful. Accidents of this kind will
sometimes occur in the best regulated
hotels. and If the attempt is discovered
within q reasonable time the heroic
efforts that are made to save the man
or woman are frequently successful.
The surgeon arrives on the scene
with the least possible delay. In the
midst Of all the fuss, worry and ex-
element he Is calm and capable. and
his skillful hands often bring back the
patient from the shadow of death. He
is discretion itself. and it sometimes
happens that the frustrated attempt to
die never reaches the public ear.
His position Is profitable and pleas
ant. If he is not naturally courteous.
adaptable and of good address, he
quickly acquires these qualities. He
dresses in the best taste and Is seen in
the dining rooms and along the corri
doris of the hotel. In this way he be-
comes a familiar figure to the guests.
and it gives them a feeling of security
to know that he Is within reach to min
lister to their physical ailments, real or
imaginary, whenever they choose to
send for him.
The house surgeon never has to wor
ry about bad debts, as have his less
fortunate brethren. The hotel manage
ment charges for his services in its
regular bill and sees to it that the prop
er fee is Forthcoming. - Detroit Free

An Arch bishops Savings.

The will of the late archbishop Of
Canterbury clearly proves that the day
when bishops used to amass huge fer
tunes is past. DR.. Temple left only
f1S,O00, a sum which represents but
slightly more than his income as arch
bishop for one year. There is certain
ly no profession in England other
than the church in which man of DIR.
Temples ability, who worked like
slave for nearly sixty years, would
have made so little money. His prede-
eesser, Archbishop Benson, left almost
twice as much - viz. $4,000, which,
oddly enough, is also the sum left by
Archbishop TAFT. The largest fortune
left by any bishop Of late years was

Avoiding the Mules Heels,

A prosperous Chicago business man
in the lobby of the Fifth Avenue hotel
told how he had occasion recently to
visit friend who was an inmate of
an institution for the care of victims of
the drink habit.
.'While chatting with my friend In
the general, reading and smoking
room," said he "a young man, pale and
shaky, entered and took seat on the
opposite side Of the room.
Presently he arose from his chair,
tiptoed across the room, making a wide
sweep and closely examined hatrack
near the door, Without a word he
sneaked back to his seat, again careful
to avoid the center of the floor. In q
few minutes he repeated these tactics.
slipping with great caution over to the
hatrack and back and avoiding the CEN
ter Of the room. On the third trip a
fellow patient asked him why he was
SO anxious about the hatrack and what
there was to shy at on the floor. In
the most intense and solicitous accents
came this reply:
"'Well, didn't you fellows see that
mule, shod with derby hats, come in
the door and across the room? Blame
him! l wanted to see whether he had
my hat | don't want any fool mule
walking around with my new hat on

Keen Young In Spirit.

Is Perhaps Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy is
right in saying that we ought to ignore
birthdays and give no heed to the pass
ing years. We imagine, however, this is
easier for Christian Scientists to do than
for those of us who are so unethereal
as to be compelled to face the stubborn
facts of life. 1t is true, however, that
we ought not to measure age simply
by the year of our birth. One may be-
old ut twenty-five or young at SEVENTY.

degrees lower than last night and a
heavy frost on the corn in the northern.
eastern and central portions of the State
Is practically certainty. From Concor-

Newton comes the report that the tenn
perature is very low and another frost
is expected. The frost last night dam
aged corn in the northwest and with more
tonight the crop will receive a great set
back In eastern and central Kansas the
farmers do not expect the corn to be ru-
ined by to-night's frost but it will make
the yield of an inferior quality. Ten more
days OF sunshine would have insured a
good crop. In Salina the temperature is
only four degrees above freezing.

Charitable Purpose Of the

Mitchell absolutely and free from any
trust yet deceased expressed in the will
ms confidence that they would carry out
ms plan for disposing OF said land in
lpFenty-acre tracts TO deserving graduates

Judge Wallace further held that the
trust sought to be created is void for two
reasons. First. il appears 10 be a trust
Tor charitable purposes and the will was
made within less than thirty days from
the time OF Jacobs death. Second. il was
a trust TO convey real property and there
fore void and illegal under decisions Of

VIII be that the property viii 90 10 the

~ sllace IS a very important one, as there
are about $500 acres Of land involved in
the matter The sixteenth clause was
