A Queer Error.

The late Ambrose l.. Thomas, the
noted advertising expert of Chicago
once told a story about two doctors in
an address on advertising.
ITO illustrate my point" he said,
apropos of an advertising error, "I'll
tell you about my friend Bones. Bones
was taken down very bad. and his
family physician being out of town, a
specialist was called in.
But the family physician unexpect-
eddy returned. and he and the specialist
entered Bones chamber together They
found the man in a high fever and par.
TALLY unconscious. Each put his hand
under the bed clothes to feel Bones
pulse, and each accidentally got hold
OF the others hand.
