Stutsman's dog Tip la quite a gud-n-bout. Mr. Stutsiunn says that to lu'cp hlni at homo A on a holiday Is an iinpossl- Holiday blllty. When ho sees tho Dog. crowds ho begins to wag his tail lor Joy and ho slays out on tho street until things hogln to quiet down, when he roturns homo ami scratches ou tho door for ndmlttuiii-u. On week nights ho Is satisfied to stay at homo, but on tho Fourth of July and other holidays he never puts In nn appoarauco until about twelve at night. A favorite habit of his Is to follow around after some of tho llttlo follows that have candy and rob thorn of It. Tin Is wo!l known ou tho streets and novor falls to tako In anything of Interest. Mo enjoys moving pleturo shows and al ways harks when ho boos other mom bora of tho dog fnmlly In tho pic tures. Q. N Holt suffered somewhat from a sore back this week and whllo com lug out of a drug storo .Miirsiiiichi with what ho hoped Doctor's would provo a romody, 1 list Case, ho mot a prominent Mnrslifloltl doctor who recalled an oxpcrlcnco ho had iml with a gentleman who was in a simi lar predicament. The doctor at that tlmo was working In a drug storo In his homo town, hut had not yet loarned much of tho business, ho was tending storo nlono one day wiicn a gentleman enmo In and askel for a cum for rhoumntlsm. Tho doc tor, who was not a doctor at that tlmo, replied that ho did not know what should bo applied, but tho con tlomnn Insisted upon some kind of n cure and so tho two bognn to search fo something thnt would glvo rollof. After searching for some tlmo thny found n bottlo reading, "For Rhoum ntlsm; Rub on, Etc." Tho gentleman wanted tho remedy but recalled that he had no ono to rub the mlxturo on, evidently bolng a bachelor. Tho doctor finally ngrcod to apply tho medicine and a salo was made. Tho two went Into a bncK room and tho doctor rubbed vigor ously nu tho pntlcnt's back for somo time, using about half of the medi cine. Thrco days later tho gontlomnn r hirncd In n very angry state of mind. Ills fists woro douched and ho seemed to he mumbling things In hU benrd. It was oven Imagined that ha was foaming slightly at the mouth, so grcnt was his rage. "Whero Is tho boy that rubhod my back?" ho roared, shaking a brnwny fist. Un fortunately that- person wns thorn. "Hut, but," stammered tho lad, "wo looked up tho medlclno togothor. I, I didn't moan anything wron. What's tho matter, any way?" "Sir," said tho gontlomnn. "when I got- homo after thnt rubbing, my back began to feel wnrm, so I took off my coat." Thoro wns a slight pause. "Aftor r had taken off my ront I still felt warm and so I took off my vest. Anothor pause. "Aftor I had taken off my vest my back still continued to fool warm and so I removed my shirts." Tho gentleman's eyes glit tered slightly as ho finished. "An! nftor I had taken off my shirts I still felt hot and I found that nil tN skin had enmo off of my bnck. It's raw. Raw! Understand!" Tho hoy folt that h understood but grabbed up a bottlo cngorly to rind out wiint wns wrong. Near tho bottom ho noticed somo directions i had not Been hoforo and which road. "Caution npply gently. Do not rub hard, hut allow the remedy to soak In and bo absorbed." Since that day a lamo hack always brings bnck recollections of tho past. THE ULTIMATE FOLLY.
