(rntipallir on men dine, according to my idea, and then there's only my boy, the young doctor, ns people call him tho most graceless piece. As lor wuo, auutue voice grew wonderfully tender 4 dear wife lias been 'singing in paradise these dozen years or more." The door opened and closed softly, and the doc tor was gone. , , , " W hat a tunny doctor i w mit queer, dear old gentleman!" thought Miss Lacey ; " and these gloves! Well, I have a piece of work bore, no mis take, must get out ray piece-bag and find some bits of silk or something, and, forgetting her fears and weakness, she was soon doing her best toward repairing the doctors well-worn driv ing gloves. Presently there came a knock at tho door, and Mrs. Cameron was admitted, thn "vnrv rpsnec.tahla Scotch woman" whom Mrs. Lowell had recommenaea as a " first-class laundress, neat, honest and a church member." The woman bore in her arms a goodly sized basket in which were various arti cles of clothing beautifully done up. As Miss Lacey rose to receive them Mrs. Came-on remarked : ' Perhaps some one is sick i' the house. I saw the doctor gang awa' just as I was comm in." "I was not feeling very well," an swered Miss Lacey, "ho came to see V.O Miss If ever a mortal man was fitly named, such was the case with Dr Blunt, the fnatnc-expressing one of his strongest characteristics. Had he been called Dr. Skilliul. the same could have been said of him with truth. And then the ex pression on his face was a faithful index of another equally strong point of character viz., great kindness of heart. So quick spoken .was the doctor on ordinary occasions, he not. only abbreviate d sentences, but words them selves frequently suffered a very per ceptible clipping. All the village of L was very mucn exercise d one morning by the in tolliirence that the two best rooms in Mr L') well's elegant house, which had been unoccupie d for a year or more because the rent was bo high, had been taken by a young lady wuo was a real live heiress, having no one but hersell to support; and she was going to fur nish t hfij-ooms with no end of costly " pieoris and lovely ornaments, and furthermore lawyer Pectham, who liad chargo of her estate, said sho was a beut y, but in very poor health, he believed. So the good natured gossips ruminated as to how sad it was that me couldn't have everything in this world. If you have wealth likely as not you have no health with which to enjoy it; things are pretty evenly dealt out, after ail ; and bo alter the manner of news-venders. Dame Rumor eems for once to have heard only the facts in the cse, for in a few days the rooms were rtallv fur nished, and occupied as predicted. And Mrs. Lowell was highly elated over the good Iooks as well as affluent circum stances of her new boarder, though in describing her she had said : ' "But something ails the poor girl; she ia so nervous, whv ! fearfully nerv ous, my dear but fresh-looking as a daisy, and not the least mite pale or wasted, and my! the way she dresses!" One morning, as Lawyer Peckham was coming out of Mrs. Lowell s house, he met Dr. Blunt going in. " Morning, Peckuam," said the doctor, in his quick way. ' Uood morning, aoctqr. uutss my client is about to become your patient, eh?" "Yes, yes," jerked out the doctor, "shouldn't wonder," and he disap . peared. Ajnoment later Dr.Blunt entered Miss Lacey's roonw. A very lair young lady reclined languidly in the sumptuous depths of a' "Sleepy lloilow" chair, ' but the quick, experienced eye of a medical man knew at a glance some thing was wronir: although, as Mrs. Lowell had said, she was rosy and plump, the expression of the eye was troubled, restless, morbid. The doctor seated himself beside his fair patient, felt her pulse, and then vented the re markable query : " Was it me or the young doctor you wanted?" " Oh, you, by all means," said Miss Lacey, with a smiie, but instantly the troubled look returned. Sho added, "1 want all the experience possible brought to bear on my case." " Any parents P" queried the doctor. "No, sir; my mother died of con sumption when J was very young; my father died when I was a nwre child." " Humph! Have any ioeal pains? Suf fer from headache nausea?" '.' No, sir;- nothing of the kind. There seems to be a fear of something all the time, an undefined apprehMision; some times I think 1 maylie, as mother did, of consumption." " Gotf.any religion." . "Why, certainly, doctor. I should hope so. I am a churoh member, and have been for years. I love my re ligion," and quick sympathetic tears k allirmed the truth of the prompt asser- tl'Ever seen Jesus Christ sick and visited Him, or naked and clothed Him, or ministered to the thou9and-and-one wants of the 'little ones' forever representing tho Savior's symbolized nntt'eriniM?" " Ala, no!" sighed poor Miss Lacey, "I have waited too tor years, but this j nervous weakness unfits me for any W thing useful or practical. I give regu larly to several charitable objects, and hope some good is done in that w.y." "Humph! Well, I'm going now. Don't know just what 1 .shall prescribe, but feel confident I can help you. Perhaps "Oh. did he. miss! an' isn't tho auld gentleman jis' lovely?" and in most en thusiastic terms sho told of the great goodness aid kindness experienced at the doctor's hands. Told how all. her life was bound up in her "one wee girlie, her bonny Janie," who had never been strong since the first time she had con vulsions, caused by indigestion, and how "monny was the night the gude mon had staid until the morning, and niver a penny of pay would he take for it." "Do you know the young doctor, ma'am?" a " No, I'm a stranger here, and know but very few persons." ' Well, miss, th? young doctor is a winsome lad, and a Christian indeed. He tells me oft I shouldn't fret for fear my lassie will bo tVen from me, but pray the gude God to spare me one ewe lamb, an' n De ins wu . lie una viom ticed with his father tho year or more, and how the auld doctor loves him ! He lias a funny way of calling him all kinds oi uncanny nnuiec, uut ivcij nuw he is the light of th auld man's eyes." And soon alter Mrs. Cameron gathered up her basket and departed. Miss Lacey had succeeded in closing up the gaping rents in the doctor's gloves, the hour had come and gone, but no doctor had reappeared. "Oh, he thinks me too comfortable a patient to need much attention," she thought, repiningly, "but he might at least have told me what my complaint was. There! the bell rings; perhaps that is he now. And the next moment a rap at her door being answered, Dr. Blunt entered. hurried, Hushed, and more aarupi in manner and speech than before. "Say, my dear girl, will you help a poor woman in great extremity P" " WJial do' you mean doctor?" "Oh, get vour hat and shawl, and como now- You've no husband to con sult, no children to leave, and a poor widow is in danger of losing her only child this night, and somo one must watch with her. I must be off in another direction. My dear child, ' again that tender tone, " wouian t you like to lit or your Savior say to you to morrow morning, " Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of the least of these ye did it unto me?" . "Oh, I'll go doctor; I'll bo ready in a moment." , . . " Better take off that long-tailed dress and don a good sensible calico ; I'll go down to the parlor," added the doctor, " and wait and take you right along in the buegy with me. Quick, now; I wouldn't wait long for the queen oi Sheba." "Well, of all thines!" thought Miss Lacey. " 1 don't know but that doctor will be the death of me, or perhaps his strange method will bo the making of me." She flew about the room in a sur prising manner for her ; donntda good warm" morning dress, and in another moment the doctor's horse was tearing along the road as if to outrun his mas ter's impatience. Yet during the ride the doctor explained to his companion how she must bo very calm" and you can be," ho added with convincing em Thaiafrr the child was Buttering from spasms quite violent, distressing and dangerous. He told briefly how tho baths must be administered, and the water kept hot all night; and finally in mentioning the patient s name surprweu MissLaeey bv revealing the fact that it was pocr little Janie Camerou, wLo had been taken ill that very afternoon dur ing her mamma's absence. Arrived at the house, the poor, dis tressed nuther became very much com tnrioA bv the nresence of " the dear, sweet young leddy who was too good to show such kindness to a poor body like mysel'!" The doctor gave most minute directions to be followed through the night, then left with the cheerful obser vation: " I'll send that young doctor around about midnight if ho makes his appear ance at the family mansion before that time. Oh, the most graceless biped !" n.l he was cone. Miss Lacey reflected with great satis faction the next day that not one thought could she remember having bestowed upon herself during that long, painful night, with its new experiences of real suffering. All ner energies and sympa thies were directed toward helping and comforting the agonized mother and re lieving the sick child. Lacey was vaguely aware that a young man, bearaea ana mustauueu, vi"'. calm, dcerj voice and shapely white hands, gave orders which she promptly obeyed, and spoke words of hope and encouragement to the poor dazed mother. It did not once occur to her that there was anything novel in her position, as, holding the child in her arms, quieted at last, tho young doctor sat close beside her, asking ques tions and giving advice, now and then turning down a corner ot the oianKei to watch the changing expression of tho little sleeper's face. But he, more accustomed to such try in? scenes, after the first moments of intense applicatior to tho case, began wondering who this lovely angel of mamv could he. working as if her whole soul were bound up in relieving this poor little child of a lowly mother. How long he might have remained is uncer tain, had not a messenger from another quarter summoned him away. The next morninff Jamie wa9 better, and continued until the anxious mother was again relieved concerning her. The next dav but one, Miss Lacey re ceived a call from three bright, interest ing young girls, who, to her utter as tonishment, informed her that old Doc tor Blunt had recommended her as just the person to become president of a Dorcas society. "Oh, you must, you must!" they chirped in concert, and before they left she had partial ly promised to accept the position to her own dismay. But when the minister called a few days afterward and said old Doctor Blunt had insisted that a class of un ruly boys in the Sabbath-school, who needed a teacher, was just the work adapted to her case, she succumbed at once, " surrendering at aisuruuou. n right o decide for herself. Miss Lacey finally wrote the doctor a spicy little note, telling him she believed any more of his peculiar prescriptions would undo the wonderful cure already accomplished. , But of late the village gossips could not fail to notice how continually the young doctor called at Mrs. Lowell's house. One morning as the elder doctor was comingoutof the house, he met Lawyer Peckham, when the following charac teristic colloquy ensued : "Hi! Good-morning doctor. Well, I hear the young doctor is about to bring a daughter for you to the ' family FOR THE FAR SEX.

Morning, Peckham." A Carious Insect. " Don't catch that bumble-bee in your fingers it will sting you," said aby Btander to a dentist with scientific proclivities who resides in tho coun try. ' Not a bit of danger," said the doctor; "the fact is that fellow is not a hoe at all. onlv a fly made to resem ble tho bumblebee very closely, but differing therelrom in some point easily detected by anyt one with a slight knowledge of insects. He is a very formidable fellow among the smaller insects, devouring great numbers of them, but altogether incapable of in jury toman. In fact he is one ot the beneficial kind, because he destroys whole hecatombs of insects during his short lifetime. You see I handle it without injury.

He is a fly sure to the few who know that, but a terrible bumble bee to all the rest." The Human Manufactory. , A man may eat and drink heartily all day, says an unknown writer, and sit and lonnire about doing nothing, in one sense of the word; but his body must keep hard at work, or it will die. Sup pose the stomach refused to work within ten minutes after a hearty dinner, the man would die in convulsions in a few hours; or cholera or cramp colic would rack and wreck him. Supposing the pores of the skin meaning thereby the glandular apparatus with which they are connected should goon a "strike," he would in an hour bo burning up with fever; oppression would weigh upon the system, and soon become insupport hle. Knnnose the liver became mulish. the appetite would become annihilated, food would be loathed, torturing pains would invade the small of the back, and the head would ache to bursting. Sup pose the kidneys shut up shop, and dan ger most imminent, Buui-nup uuikoi able, and death more certain, would be the speedy and unenviable result. If the little workshops of the eye should close, in an hour he could not shut nor open them without physical force, and in an other hour he would be blind; or if those ot the tongue should close, it urmiM he cn me drv as a bone and stiff as steel. To keep such a complication of machinery in working order for a lite time is a miracle of wisdom, but to work them by the pleasures of eating and drinking is a miracle of beneficence.

The terrier made for the bear at once, and going up behind him, bit him on the heel. The bear turned around to see what had scratched him on the foot, and the minute he turned. Yore, who had been standing motionless, watch ing the bear as it came face toward hi ui, brought the rifle up to his nose and flashed it at him.
