The First Patient.


An eminent New York surgeon, now
very wealthy and the envied possessor
of a large practice, often tells with
glee of an incident of his younger
days,
When he first hung out his single
and started in to win fame and for
tune things looked pretty gloomy. Six
whole weeks he sat in his modest lit
tie office without a call from single
patient, and his first fee seemed long
way off.
At last, one night, there came q
ring at the office bell. The servant
few to the door. The doctor could not
make up his mind whether he would
rather be called to a good chronic pa
tient or to some sensational accident
to a we'll known citizen. He opened
the door of the consulting room as
calmly as he could and saw a young
man there.

said. II wished to know If 1 could ar

Collections Good

City Treasurer Nels Lee reports
having collected $25, 69697 of the
tax roll now in his hands for collect
ion. This is better then half of the
roll which is $4,000. People have
been paying their taxes much better
this year than year ago, and the
indications are that there will be a
small delinquent roll turned over to
the comfy treasurer.
In the town of Washburn an
equally good collection has been
made by Town Treasurer Andrew
Rockstad. The farmers seem to
have plenty of money this year and
already S., 900 has been turned into
the town treasury. The tax roll for
the town is $8,637. Mr.. Rockstad
reports that the collections are far
ahead of last season.

An Anecdote of Macready.


One Of the most amusing anecdotes
Of Macready's petulance of temper re-
lates to revival Of Henry WILL" I'M
der the management Of Maddox at the
Princess theater, in London. The part
of Cardinal Campeius was assigned to
brother of Mr.. George Augustus Sala,
whose stage name was Wynn, for
whom Macready had an inveterate dis
like. The tragedian had implored the
manager to see that Campeius was fur
nished with a costume which should
not seem entirely ridiculous beside the
splendid robes he himself wore as
Wolsey, but Maddox, of course, disre-
garded the injunction.
At the dress rehearsal Macready, en-.
throned in a chair of state, had the
various characters to pass before him.
He bore all calmly until, clad in scar
let robes bordered by silver tissue pa
per and wearing an enormous red hat,
Wynn approached. Then. clutching
both arms Of his chair and closing his
eyes, the great tragedian gasped out.

Why should we ever weary Of this life?
Our souls should widen ever, not con-

Grow stronger and not harder in the
strife,
Filling each moment with noble act
If we live thus, of vigor all compact,
Doing our duty to our fellow men
And striving rather to exalt our race
Than our poor selves. with earnest hand
or pen,
We shall erect our names dwelling

Which not all ages shall cast down again.
Offspring of time shall then be born
