ALTERATIONS to suit tenant was
part of the sign In Philadeiph'"

one thing to ruggest. namely, that the
stair steps be fixed TO the top moor

Fashion In Medicine.

A curious communication has been
made to the French Academy OF Medi'
cine by pr Grimbert, who has fond
ness for statistics. The doctor has
been making inquiries with view TO
finding out whether there is fashion
in medicine. He has discovered that
the old-fashioned medicines. such as
opium. laudanum. iodine and bismuth,
are sold in about the same quantities
as they have always been. The sale
OF leeches has diminished In 1876 So
600 were sold by certain number OF
chemists shops in Paris. but this year
the same shops sold only $4,000. The
elycero phosphates and antipyrins sold
so per cent less than they used to
and Quinine has gone down "a per
cent AS for the newer drugs-pyra-
midon, asperine. etc,-their sale has
increased enormously.

BY MAUD WALKER.

Billy Simpkins was IA years old, and
stood well in his classes and was cap
tain Of the baseball nine of the high
school force" Billy was an only child
and had things pretty much his own
way at home, his parents being proud
and foolishly fond of him.
But in Billy's case, as In many cases
of a like nature "peace and plenty"
became a bit fayorless, and Billy longed
for excitement, adventure and hardship.
81 want to get out and knock about on
my own hook" he would say to his COM
rades. ~ don't like the soft bed, the
laden dinner table and the carpeted floors
of plenty. Give me a few hard thpmps
now and then to let me find out what
sort of stuff I'm made of. How can a
boy amount to anything when he's got
everything he wants for the asking7
Nope. I'm going to make a toss up of
1t; I'm going to take foot in hand and
seek for pastures new"
You'll be glad enough to come home
for dinner" laughed Tom Pratt. Billy's
chum. 'Tt's all right to starye during
the day, but when the evenings gather
dinner you know is cooking In the kitch-
en- of the dear old home And you'll
make tracks toward the kitchen door
and ask cook to please give you hand
out, seeing that you've discarded home
and mother and become a tramp, thus
barring yourself from the table and a
napkin"
Tom laughed gaily ut the mental pic
ho =
face was serious. as he said: you've
got a wrong idea of my plans, Tom. 1
have no notion of becoming a tramp
knight of the railroad tracks, so to
speak. No, I'm In earnest. | mean to
go to some distant state and find en-
ployment-get a job. 1 want to work.
I've got enough schooling. There's no
use keeping at books till one turns
gray"
Then you're going to drop out of
your classT' Tom asked the question in
a voice of surprise. ''Why, you'll grad
uate in two years, Billy. l hate like the
deuce to see you drop out now. You
and l have gone from the primary grade
together, climbing side by side. And If
you quit now-leave me alone, so it will
seem-why, I'll Just about go to pieces
when exam. comes. Now, Billy, for your
own sake for the sake OF your pal, and
for the sake of your mother-for
know 1t will be a great disappointment
to her II you don't graduate-be sensi-
BILE and stick 1t out for another two
years"
But to all Toms pleading Billy shook
his head. And Tom was shocked when
he went on to say: You see, old chum
