A WordIess Comedy In Which She Who
Tapped Last Tapped Best.
She was pretty. and as she leaned
against the counter in the marriage
license bureau she carelessly stretched
a forearm ON the broad surface while
she tapped the wood with her fingers.
A one carat diamond flashed in a man
her to attract attention, which appar7
emily was the purpose sought by the
attractive wearer.
Enter a second young woman with
her escort.
She was not so pretty nor so richly
attired. She also leaned against the
counter. while her fiance, a large man
and apparently entirely capable, filled
out an application blank.
The second woman caught the sound
of the tapping and turned to see the
fash of the gem.
The first young woman glanced at
the face of the last arrival, took a
fieeting appraisement of garments and
style and continued to tap. The second
young woman indolently raised hel
arm. placed it on the counter and be-
gan tapping with her fingers. The first
young woman turned in surprise. Then
she dropped her arm, her lips became
a straight line, and she walked to the
desk where her prospective husband
was writing.
The second young woman smiled and
also let her arm fall to her side. The
third finger of the left hand bore a
two carat diamond of purest luster.

marked the official in charge of the bu-
reau, who related the story.-Los An.

Sacred Deer.

From time immemorial deer have
been held in reverent regard by the
japanese. Herds are kept In COM
pounds. and the highest respect is
paid to the animals. In Olden times
the shotgun gave the people such
strict order to protect the sacred ami
mails that if any one happened to hurt
or kill them he was put to death on
the spot. 1t was a period of terror.
Even at the present day the deer are
so tame and abundant in the shrine
grounds that they in fine weather stroll
round to the streets by twOs and threes
and surround passersby, asking for
food and even taking the persons
sleeves in their mouths affectiOnately.
Once year some of the deer are
caught by means of net with a ham
die by several tanners Tin service of
the KaSuga shrine Officer and taken to
an inclOSure. where their splendid
horns are cut off with a saw, while a

INGENIOUS BOOKKEEPING.
How Doctors May Have Banks Keep
Track of Their Business.


Track of Their Business
The Medical Record quotes from a
writer in the British Medical Journal
who suggests that physicians should
make banks serve as their bookkeepers.
Sir John Collie is the author Of this
system. His plan is to keep two bank
ing accounts at the same bank.
"The first, No. l." says the writer, els
his ordinary current account. into
which he should pay all the money he
receives, whether he has been paid in
cash or checks. 1t is an excellent rule
never to spend a penny which has not
come to one through his banking ac-
count. The physician should never get
checks which have been paid to him
cashed by the local tradesman. He
should never pay his chauffeur with
his fees. Every single item received
from the physicians practice from one
years end to another should go
through his banking account No. 1. II
the physician has been tempted to use
a five dollar bill which some one has
paid him unexpectedly on a round or
if he has bought stamps with the mon
Gy Hu1Cu PdLlCnL ACAL at Lie OA1lCGs
then he should draw a check for the
amount, cash it and pay the money
into his bank Thus, and thus only, can
he make his banker his bookkeeper.
eff the physician should die suddenly
or wish to sell his practice, then. and
then only, whether his other business
books are kept well or not, the lawyer
or the medical agency or the purchaser
who wades through his effects will re-
joice to find one method of knowing
gross receipts and getting some idea of
the real intrinsic value of the business
and will from the physicians bank
book alone tell the total cash receipts
from the practice upon which to found
the purchase price.
"At the end of every year the books
should be balanced, and if the doctor
cannot balance them himself or has
not the time the comparatively small
sum which a professional accountant
will charge, say So or $40, will be well
repaid"
