"About eight O'Clock, Just when !

errand so she went to the door with a
stovehook In one hand, and the corn
pepper in the other, and she gave a
shrek Of anguish when she saw the

What viii Eliza Jane say when she
hears called In a doctorY
AFTER bis wife came back, was
over at their house one night, and she
roasted me to crisp for sending for
doctor. She said that II had the first
instincts Of a gentleman I'd pay the
bill, for wasn't authorized to call In
a sawbones, and she didn't want one In
the house. Doolittle sat there and
heard his wife roasting me until my
whiskers curled and, although he knew
the doctor saved his life, he never said
q word.
after I left the house, he sneaked
out and overlook me, and told me he
was sorry for what had happened. but
experience had taught him that It's no
use to butt In when his wife has the
door.
''Gooseworthy came over this morn
ing while was feeding the COWS, and
told me q tale Of woe. His wife has
about FIVE hundred female relations,
aunts and stepsisters and cousins and
such people. and she keeps the house
full Of them all the time. He has to
sleep on a sanitary couch in the hall,
while his own feather bed is occupied
by an aunt who weighs about 400
pounds. He hasis comfortable rocking
chair he bought for his own private
use, and now he never gets a whack
at 1t. His wife's step-sister, who
brought her tortoise-shell cat along, Is
always using 1t. he said he was get
ting plumb disgosted with such con-
dition of affairs, but he didn't know
what to do.
II asked him 0lhy he didn't read the
authorized version Of the riot act to his
wife, and tell her to ship all those reh
les out Of the house. He seemed
shocked at the suggestion. You don't
know what you're talking about he
said. You've never been married.
1.-The queer thing about it Is that
Gooseworthy is a great stickler for his
rights when he's away from home. Hes
as sassy as a bobcat, and will fight at
the drop Of the hat If anybody tries to
impose on him. He walks with his
head back and his chest out In front OF
him, but as soon as he reaches his own
front gate he begins to look so blamed
abject that the neighbors pity him.
Then, there's old Major Sendon,
who distinguished himself on many
crimson battlefield. He has courage
enough for three regiments. But he
married the Widow Bunkum q couple
of years ago and she makes him DO
the family washing, and hang the
clothes on the line, and suppose he
does the ironing, too. I could tell You
of q hundred such cases"
II suppose you could" sighed the
professor, "but I don't care for sensa-
