THE PLUCKY COLONEL.

When Roosevelt was shot by the
crank in Milwaukee he was ready to
make speech before large audience.
Such thing as being wounded by a
bullet did not deter him. Like true
soldier he forged ahead to do his duty
although advised to have an exami-
nation made. When he stepped upon
the stage Mr.. Cochems announced that
the colonel had been wounded and a
shudder ran through the audience.
When the former president stepped
forth and drew his glasses from his
his pocket he exhibited the place
where they had been struck by the
ball. Then he pulled forth his manu-
script and there was a hole clear
through the sheets where the lead had
plowed its way. It takes a hero to
proceed in time like that. Roosevelt
did it. Long live The p'ucky colonel.

1ege at Philadelphia, and as one OF the
consulting physicians had been a pro-
lessor in that college it seemed to me
ouite unlikely that I would be able to
do any more than had been done, but
prescribed what seemed to be the best
thing under the circumstances.
He went away and in week he re
turned saying he was no better, that ne
was still losing ground. He judged
that he had taken the same medicine
before. No doubt he had. But he
wished me to prescribe again. did SO.
This went on for about two months,
the patient failing all the time, and
was becoming thoroughly discouraged
with the case.
One day the patient said to me,
Doctor, why don't you give me the
medicine you gave my neighbor? We
all thought he would die, but your
medicine cured him. This was why l
came to you. Why not give me the
same medicine you gave him?"
But" I said, "your neighbor did not
have kidney disease. 1t was a bowel
complaint that I prescribed for IN his
case. I remember I gave him the
Neutralizing Mixture that make a
great deal of use of in bowel dis
eases"
'eWeH, T want some Of the same
medicine you gave him. 1t worked

'eWell, since you seem to be like the
rest of the doctors, you cannot hell

After some hesitation [ concluded e
give him a bottle of it. In ten days
he returned. He at once began to be-
rate me in no complimentary words

"You knew very well this medicin'
