CUPID WITH
GLOVES ON
By CLARA NEZ DEACON

When the sign of Charles Blais-
dell, M. D., appeared over the door
OF a modest little Office in the village
OF Stoneham. there we're those who
said that unless Providence interfered
the newcomer would fetch up in the
poor-house within a year. Stoneham
was not only one of the healthiest
places in the state. but it had more
physicians per capita than any other.
II wasn't the doctors who kept the
town SO healthy, but it was the
healthy people who kept the doctors
without practice
Doctor Blaisdell was young. The
people who might possibly fall sick
and need his services said his age
was against him. 1t wouldn't inspire
confidence. He was also a cookbook
ing young man. They also said that
was against him. He must be vain
and Eighty 1t was rumored that he
was athletic, but he made no friends
through that. The idea in Stoneham
was that a doctor should be at least
forty years old, gruff of speech and
manner, and that when not sitting in
his office and waiting for patients he
should be walking about with his
hands behind him and his head down
The big man in Stoneham was
known as Old Harper He was not
yet fifty years old, but they gave him
the title because he employed many
men, and was very brusque and blunt.
Mr.. Harper was rich. He also had a
daughter Minnie. He was also a bit
eccentric
Had Doctor Blaisdell been told
these things when he hung out his
sign he might have asked what diff
ference it could have made to him,
but he wasn't told. He was left to
find it out for himself, which was the
better way. He was sitting in his of
flee one morning when Old Harper
walked in on him and roughly began:
Young man, what fool advised you
to hang out your shingle in this
town."
81 am not chummy with fools, sir!'
was the reply.
You know me, don't your"
IL don't"
They call me Old Harper"
"Yes?"
Most people come to me for advice
before settling down in this town"
Then they must be weak in the
spine!"
young doctor, amt you?"

spect. I've noticed you on the streets

three or four times with your hand
tied up. What's the matter with it?"
These fools of doctors around here
call It blood poisoning, and have got
to go to the city to find out"
Doctor Blaisdell pushed his visitor
into a chair and proceeded to remove
the bandage from his hand. When he
had examined it he got out his case
of instruments and prepared ban
dages.
Young man, what do you think you
are going to do" asked the caller
with a grim look.
You've stuck a silver or bone into
your palm and it's raised row. Just
hold still moment"
Old Harper grinned. If 1t had been
the amputation of a finger he would
have grinned He watched the young
doctor and continued to grin.
He liked a nervy man, and he de-
tected no sign of trepidation. A tough
ash silver an inch long was removed,
some soothing ointment applied, and
the hand bandaged. With grunt the
patient rose up and laid five-dollar
bill on the table.
Fifteen more. please" said the
doctor
Old Harper looked at him with a
scowl. but handed out three more fiyes
and backed out without word. It
was when he had turned the corner
that he smiled and said to himself
He'll get on. Always ask good
price for good work, and when you
meet the big man of the town don't
let him bluff you
Doctor Blaisdell had punching
b,g and Indian clubs in the back
room of his Office He also took a
two-mile walk or run before break
fast
II was on one of these excursions
that he met Miss Minnie Harper. who
was taking a gallop on her pony. He
met a boy who could tell him who she
was. and she met a boy who could
give her information. His curiosity
was because she was good-looking,

Net Really A Learned Man.

When Eben Drayton was asked what
he thought of the new principal of the
academy. his face took on its most
uncompromising expression. Depends
on whether you're considering him as
a man or teacher" he answered.
When his questioner had aroused
the expected amount of curiosity,
Eben proceeded with his explana-
lions.
LAS a man he may be all right
presume to say he is-but as teach
or he leaves consid' able to be desired.
WHY. he amt real well grounded on
the difference 'twixt huckleberries and
blueberries, and when questioned him
close | found he want any too sure OF
the pints o. the compass in this town.
IF he makes out TO get through the
wear without showing his ignorance
to the trustees, miss my guess. He's
shaIler, that's what's the trouble with
him,"-youth's Companion.

Bells and Sentiment,

We are swindlers in sentiment. Let
that be confessed at once to the cor
respondent who has noticed that the
BELLS of Aberdovey" is to be sung at
the investture OF the prince of Wales.
He learned the music of the song so
years ago, and then in old age made
this pilgrimage to hear those famous
bells. And he found only one church
in Aberdovey, and that one church
had only one bell.
1t appears that we are receiving
thousands of American visitors who
go to Aberdovey for the sake of the
bells and come away disappointed. As
a mere matter of international cour-
tesy It should be explained that when
we say bells" we are usually singu-
lar or evasive. Do not-dear, credu-
lous stranger-be too expectant as to
the BELLS of Haslemere." And when
that most delightful of phrases strikes
on your ear, THE Bells of Ouseley," re-
member that this is merely the name
of certain licensed premises on the
border of the Thames.-London Chron-
iple

Thrifty Singer Met Her Match.

A story comes from Vienna of Frau
Selma Kurz, the opera singer, and
Prof. Leopold Harvurtz, the court
painter.
The prima donna, it is said, had
long been anxious to have her portrait
painted by the professor. A friend in
troduced her, and the artist agreed to
execute the commission.
The portrait was finished in 80 sit
tings, and the singer, enthusiastic in
it's praise, handed the painter a small
package and asked him to send the
pi"t"rA to her home. The professor
opened the package on the spot and
found that it contained $500.
With a smile he told the lady she
could keep the $500 and he would keep
the portrait. Frau Kurz thereupon re-
minded him that she had given him
80 sittings, land / am not an artists

The painter smiled again and said:
81 pay my models dollar for every
sitting. You may therefore claim $50.

The Beauty Of New York.

II was in all probability the intelli-
gent foreigner who discovered this
CITY for the American artist, says the
New York Evening Post. The foreign
or sailed up New York harbor. saw
the battlements Of lower Manhattan
rise from out the waters and wondered
what our painters had been doing all
this time. He was reinforced by that
other intelligent foreigner who dis
cerned in our skyscrapers and our can
yons a new spirit and new gospel.
Our poets and painters responded to
tho hint. We learned that we had
soul and that it was expressing itself
in office buildings, elevated transit
lines and subways. The poets began
m sing skyscrapers. elevated lines and
subways. But they have been outdis-
tanced by the painters, of whom a
small army is now engaged in putting
the new spirit upon canvas. The work
Is being done with deal Of skill and,
II must be confessed. with a great deal
of .elf-consciousness. We have gone
al Il with characteristic national pas
sion for the new thing.
