Tke Doctor" Story.
In the epring of 1ST0 I settled in
Lancaster. The old physician of that
place had been removed by death,
and several of my friends wsre anx
ious that I ebould come in. The
opportunity was an excellent one,
and I embraced it ; and whed I had
been there a year 1 bad a practice far
better and more extensive than I had
ever before enjoyed. Among those
who became my warm personal
friends were Frederic Lawson and
his wife ; and their friendship was
worth having. Mr. Lawson was
over TO vears of age. a hale, hearty
old man ; and his wife was the very
picture of domestic health and com
lort. He was the wealthiest man in
town, being worth over $100,0 A), and
was one ot the most valuable citi
zens. ,
me day in the early part of Sep
tember I received a request to attend
at Mr. Lawson "s without delay. It
was in tae afternoon, and when I
arrived I found the old gentleman
and his wife both sick. They had
bren taken just before noon with
cramps and chills; but they were
much easier when I arrived than
they were when they tent for me.
I gave simple emeucs with some
other medications, and then left
them proiniiing to call again in the
nii.rii-i.-r. . . , ,
In the morning l louna tnem .n" j
-n-r than beiure. Ihey
they were much better because they
suffered no pain: but I could see that
thej were really sick.
The nurse was named Margaret
Allen. She was a jecu!iar person,
though, on the whole, rather pretty.
She was of medium height, with
light brown hair, greyish blue eyes,
and her face, with its finely cut lea-ture.--.

home.
Another week pa

own, and my property, if my wi!e
and I both die. will go to my broth
ers family. I had one child a
dajgiiter. She was a precious child
to rue, and yet she stuck me a heavy
blow. I had a st-rvan: named Stein-
burg, a shrewd, unprincipled fellow, I
witn an exterior polish and comely.
He won my daughters love, and she
ran away with him and married
him. I did not disown her: I tried
to have her came and live with me,
hutsh would notlpave her husband.
I could not have him beneath my
roof, for he was a villain. At the
expiration of a few years Steinburg
died, leaving his wife with one
child, a son. I then took my daugh
ter and her boy home, and ere many
days she died. The boy turned out
worse than his father ; six years aco
I received news of his death. He
died in Calcutta of fever, and the
captain of the 6hip wrote to me that
his body had leen decently buried.

a will just for the purpose of disin- "that had been given, and so I told
heritinjr mv heir, which I would
have been lorced to do had William
Steinburg lived.'
It was three days after this, on
Friday that my suspicion of soroe
thing wrong began to oppress me.
On the Friday mornine I found the
old man more feeble than lie had
been before, and while I was with
him he had a spell of vomiting. The
matter ejected from his stomach had
a peculiar look, and I asked him
what he bad been taking. He said
he had taken nothing but his resting
powders. I took some of the matter
away with me, and before noon I
had submitted it to a chemical test
wliich letrayed the presence of
jxjison! There was arsenic ; but the
arenic was not alone. It was pre
pared poison a compound formed
Uon some subtle basis calculated
to destroy life without giving token
of its presence. In this case it was i
evident that an overdose had been
administered.
As soon as I had made a careful
analysis of the contents of my phial,
I returned to Lawson 's house and
made a change in his medicine.
There was a boy in the family, a lit
tle fellow some 12 or 13 years of age,
a son of the cook, whom I thought
I could trust He was bright as a
lark, and I knew that he loved Mr
Lawson. I called him into the car-
den and asked him if he would like
to help me serve his master, and
furthermore, if he could keep his
own council, even from his mother.
1 was not disappointed. I knew
from hie manner or reply that I
might dejtend upon him. I asked
him w hat he thought of Margaret
Allen. He said be didnt't like her.
And the little fellow tdiook his head.
He felt more than he could explain.
I told bim that I wanted him to
watch Margaret Allen in every pos
sible way. I wanted to know every
thing she did, only she must not
know that he was near her. He
promised to the best he could, and I
then dismissed him.
That evening I was w ith my pa
tients at 9 o'clock, and with my
own hands gave the medicine. I
tod them I wa going to try a new
course I wanted them to take nothing
more till morning. In the morning
I was there again, and met the boy
in the garden. Had he watched
Margaret Allen? Yes, he had watch
ed her very narrowly. Had she
given the Bick people any medicine?
He had not seen anvthing of the
kind.
"Have you seen anything out of
the way 7 1 asked.
"I don't know as there's been any
thing out of the way," he replied,
"hut I saw something this morning
that looked funny,"
"Ah what was xiV
"I went up and watched here at
the door, and when I peeped through
the key-hole 1 aaw her shaving
ueraeii wiia a raior just liie a
man.
Sbavine herself ! I had it now.
Now I believed I had a clew to Mar
garet Allen's strange look. Shaving
witn a razor just like aman. Was
not that it ? I thanked the boy ior
Lis information, and having caution
ed him to keep quiet, and promised
him that he should be rewarded
for his services, I dismissed him.
When I went op stairs I found Mr.
Lawson very weak, but not in much
pain. After some remarks on gen
eral topics I introduced the name of
Margaret Allen. I asked him if he
ever noticed anything peculiar about
her- . . i ;i x
"Yes," he said, "and that may be
one reason why I've been drawn to
ward her. She looks as my daughter
used to look."
44 Your daughter never had a daugh
ter?' Xoonlv one child William."
"And you are sure William is
dead ?"
-Certainly.
"How do you know ?"
"Whv the captain of the ship
in which he sailed wrote me to that
effect"
"Did it ever occur to you that
William Steinburg might have writ
ten that letter himself?"
"No. Such a thing never enter
ed my mind. But what do you
mean?"
"I'll tell you to morrow, said I.
"I am in a hurry now."
I got rid of him as easy as possi
ble and then went back to my own
dwelling, when I took one of my pis
tols and carefully loaded it ; and
thus armed I returned to the bouse
of mv patients. In all probability
the reader sees the drift of my sus
picion. It is enough for me to say
that suspicion amounted almost to a
moral certainty. When I reached
the house I called the coachman
and the crooni. and when I had

"Sir! What means this intrusion ?'
There was a start, but it was not the

far from it.

then I went to see Mr. Lawson
I believed that it would do my pa-
mv discoverv, since I could give him ;
hopes ol recovery; ana accoramgiy
1 told him all. He was not startled
as I expected to see him.
I have suspected this,' he said,
shaking his head.
'Since when ?' I asked.
'Since you sjwke to me before.
Your remarks opened my eyes. I
was prepared for this. William has
been poisoning me.'
'Yes.'
'Do you think you can ever cure
me?"
' Yes, I hope so. We will go at it
at once, and the result will be appar
ent in a few days. And, in the
meantime, what shall be done with
our prisoner ?'
Let bim be safely guarded to
night, and we will consult about
that to-morrow.'
That very night I was satisfied I
could arrest the work ot the poison
Mr. Lawson. I did not speak with
his wife upon the subject, leaving
him to do that himself.
On the following morning Mr.
Iiawson told me that William Stein
burg had gone.
Don't be astcnished,' he said. 'I
sent him off myself. He confessed
his crime and I let him off.'
' I sent for him and he came to
my room, and when made him
understand that I should not seek
revenge upon him, he confessed the
whole. He had fabricated the story
of his own death for the simple pur
pose of throwing me off my guard,
and also with the thought that it
might prevent his being mentioned
in my will, in the shape of disinher
itance. He knew that as, the off
sprirg of my only child, he was heir
to my property, and with that he
worked.
. T . . 1 1 -I .1 I

got the recioe for the poison from an
old Indian, and that if he had not
been careless in giving it his secret
would never have been discovered.
He said he would leave the country
if I would let him go, and I could
not refuse. He was the son of my
only daughter, and could not see
him suffer a felon's doom. I do not
believe he will ever trouble me
again.
On the whole, I did not blame my
friend for what he had done, and so
I finally told him. He had learned
how the poison had been compound
ed, and when I knew the secret I
knew how to apply the antidote.
Within a month both Mr. Lawson
and his wife were well again, and,
as may be supposed, their feelings
toward me had not grown cold.
About a j-ear after that we heard
that William Steinberg had gone to
California. He was keeping a gam
bling house in San Francisco. In
another year he was dead. It was
no deception this time. He was
shot in a street row, and a friend of
mine who happened to be there,
wrote me the particulars.
Story or a Texas Well.
I heard of a well in Burkville,
Texas, in which the empty bucket
would descend and its mate ascend
with water, w ithout any known force
beingu 6ed. The well and buckets are
arranged, as is common here, with
ptflly, rope and two buckets. I
denounced the story as untrue when
told to me, but wrote to Judge M.
T. Ilinea, owner of the property on
which the well is situated, and re
ceived in reply the fallowing letter :
" Yours of the 19th inst to hand
and contents noted. I have te re
ply that the well inquired about be
longs to me; that some years
since it commenced to draw wa
ter; that is the empty ibuckt
would go down and a bucket of wa
ter would come up and remain at
the top of the well without any
known cause. It has been kept up
ever since at intervals, lnere is no
regularity about it; it will often draw
at any hour of the night as at other
times. It has been known to draw
as many as three or four a day,
There seems to be no difference in it
as regards the weather or the sea
sons of the year. It has never been
known to draw up water when there
was water in the top-bucket We
know of no cause for the strange oc
currence.

It was a meeting of the Pumphan
die Division of the Cold Water
Knight of the Total Abstinence
Brotherhood. Several eloquent
speeches had been made on the gen
eral principles of the order and a
sharp discussion had taken place
on the relative strengthening quali
ties of toast water and gruel, during
which some warm but kindly per
sonalities had passed between Broth
er Slimey and the Rev. Fogg Pond,
when an interesting stranger arose
to address the brethren, lie was a
fine looking man of 35 years of age,
and his appearance was greeted with
applause by the sisters.
The Ilev.F. Pond desired to know
if the stranger were a brother.
The stranger replied he was both
a man and a brother.
The Kev. F. Pound meant was he
a brother of that Brotherhood ?
The stranger was a brother of the
Brotherhood of Mankind, but was
not a brother of that particular
Brotherhood.
Brother Slimey objected to any
one addressing the meeting who
was not a brother of that Brother
hood. Cries of shame! shame! Sit down!
Stand up ! Go on ! Leave of!

it was "another a large glass pro

In the Sleeping Car from Chicago.
A lady sat with her only child ;
The poor little fellow was almost
wild.
He was making a noise like a circus

For a horrible felon was on his
hand.
A quiet old man remarked to the
mother :
" I think we can stop this pain and
bother.
I've a bottle of Pain Killer here," said
he,
"And I think it will cure him ; let
us see."
He poured some drops on a moist

And wrapped the felon, as if in a

And 6oon the suffering child was

Few people seem to properly esti
mate the great wrong of frightening
children. Nearly every household
has its ugly old man,' or its great
old bear.' This terrible old man and
this great old bear are powerful fac
tors in nursery discipline. 'Come
along here, now,' a mother or nurse
will say to a child, 'and let me put
you to bed.' ' I don't want to go
now,' the child replies. You hud
better come on here now, or I'll tell
that ugly old man to come and take
you away. There he comes now.'
ThU has the intended tflect,and the
child, trembling in fear, submits at
once and goes to bed probably to
see in imagination all kinds of hor
rible faces.
The sad death of a little girl,
which occurred recently, shows what
a strong impression these ' boogies'
make on the minds of children.
The little girl was a beautiful child,
and everyone at the fashionable
boarding-house where her parents
were spending the summer months
loved her with that purity of affec
tion which a child 6o gently, yet so
strongly inspires. She would stand
at the gate and clap her little hands
in glee when her father came to din
ner, and when he would take her
on his shoulder, she would shout
and call to everyone to look how
high Bhe was. One day a large
shaggy dog came into the yard, and
when she ran to him and held a
flower to his nose, he growled and
turned away. She was terribly fright
ened, and the black nurse who stood
near, was not slow in making a
mental note of the impression the
dog had made. Several nights
aiterwards, when bedtime came, the
child was unusually wakeful.
' Yer'd better come heah and git
in dis bed,' the nurse sternly com
manded. ' I don't want to.'
' All right, den. I'se gwine out an'
call dat ole dog what growled at yer.
When he comes an' tines yer outen
de bed, he'll bite your head off.'
The little girl grew deathly pale.
' Nuthin' would suit dat dog bel
ter dan ter get a chance at yer.
T'other night he cotch a little girl
across de road an' eat her all up.'
The child screamed.
Come on, yer, den, an' I won't let
hiin ketch yer.'
The poor little thing obeyed, Her
father and mother were at an enter
tainment, and there was no appeal
from the negro woman's decision.
When morning came the little girl
did not awake with her glad ' good
inornin' papa and mamma.' She
had tossed all night, and a hot fever
had settled upon her. She grew
rapidly worse, and the next day a
physician declared that there was no
hope for her. She became delirious,
and struggling, would exclaim :
Dog shan't have mamma's little
girl!'
It was a sorrowing circle that sur
rounded her death bed. The par
ents were plunged into a grief which
none but the hearU of lathers and
mothers can teel.
Her last momenta were a series of
struggles. How hard the beautiful
can die. She wildly threw up her
little hands and shrieked :
'Go away, dog'.'
A gentle hand wiped the death
froth from her lips.
Again she struggled violently and
shrieked :
Dog 6han't have '
But she died ere the sentence was
finished.
He stepped into a cane store in

looking for, and your business ought

'It is fair,' replied the proprie

business would be rushing.'
' What do you mean?' asked the
cane merchant.
' Why. I lost mine in a church
last week, and want to get it

'Get what back ?'

How Watch Cases are Made.
A plate of solid gold 14 2-10 karats
fine is soldered on each aide of a plate of
hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this plate the various
parU of the cases backs, centers, bezeL,etc.
are cut and shaped by dies and formers.
... ... i r t
The gold is thick- enougn w aumu i au
kinds of chasing, engraving, and engine-
turning. The composition meuu gives n
needed strength, ttijfnes and tqlidity, while
the vrilten guarantee of the manufacturers
warranting each case to wear ftrenty years
liroves that it contains all the gold that
can posaiblv be needed. This guarantee
is given from actual remits, as many of
these cases have been worn perfectly smooth
bv years of use without wearing through
the gold. Drticgr, I.. D. 14, 1W.
