disturbed my soul; ''nethinks
you're dense; | called you in for
pills and potions-I do not pay for
common sense. Can't you pre-
scribe a Jug of bitters, to cure me
of my ills and woes. and let me-
have my pies and fritters and sir
loin steaks and things like those"
But, with a sternness truly Ro-
man, the doctor says. That will
not go; an outing for your tired
abdomen-that is the only cure |

in sickness, since doctors have so
honest grown; they say. IF YOU d

have to leave the pies alone: you II
have to diet like the dickens, each
day ten miles you'll have to walk,
and 60 to slumber with the chick
