John I'tai klnloit's Ovation..
A noble ty of the man who knows
how to do gtxxl with his motley was
John Plankinton, of Milwaukee. Mr.
Phtnkiiiton's charitable deeds begun in
early life, from the very generosity of his
nature, and were continued uninterrupt
edly. What he has done is best attested
by the fellow citizens of the great pork
packer who had shared his public munifi
cence and were thoroughly cognizant of
hia many private charities. In illustra
tion of the esteem and love in which he
was held it is related that when Presi
dent Cleveland visited Milwaukee in
1887, the applause which greeted him as
, hia carriage drove along the streets was
as nothing to the ovation given John
Plankinton, who rode in the procession.
When, a year or two later. Mr. Plank
baton's body was borne to the cemetery,
all the houses along the line of the fu
neral march were draped in mourning
and expressions of personal sorrow were
beard on every hand. It was a tribute
to a rich man who spent his money wise
ly and who knew what was beautiful in
a life that is worth living.- " "

A DOCTOR'S STORY.
I met Itttra at a charity ball. It was a
ease of love at first sight on my part, and
I sot introduced.
"Dr. SprlK Miss Laura Wyatt." The
Introduction was made in an Instant. We
had one waits, only one, which we danced
from start to lliitsu; aud then, when that
glorious waits was over, wa both felt as
though we had knowu and loved each
other all our lives. '
How I manaired it I don't exactly know,
but I did manage it. I succeeded in getting
tutroduced to old Mr. Wyatt, Laura's
papa. I dauced several other dances with
Laura, and at the end of those dances
I vowed her tho one thing undented
That lived and breathed In this world of alni
The purest, tendercst, truest child
That a man ever trusted In.
Vou may say that it did uot take me long
to arrive at this conclusion, (t did uot
take me long, simply because I am a man
of great mental promptitude, and have
grown accustomed to arrive rapidly at a
correct diagnosis. You have to arrive at a
rapid diagnosis when you see a buudred
and twenty patients in three hours, which
I had been in the habit of doing as assist
ant physician to St. Skinflint's.
I fancy 1 made a rather favorable Im
pression on old Wyatt. I bad cultivated a
good professional manner. Some people
say that in my profession manner is every
thing. I was what may be termed extra
professional your young consulting physi
cian always is. I had the etiquette and
the ethics of the profession at my fingers'
ends, and at that time I honestly felt that
if it had not been for my peculiarly pro
possessing appearance, and the fact that I
was deficient in the physiciau's crown of
glory (I meun a bald head), a large aid
lucrative practice must bemiueeventually.
and till the night I saw Laura I was abso
lutely devoted to the profession of medi
cine, and I longed-I actually longed for
that bald bead and the accompanying
large and lucrative practice.
1 called, and I was very favorably re
ceived. Mr. Wyatt asked me to dinner,
and he made a very favorable impression
upon me, and be gave me a very good din
ner; and the interest the old gentleman
took in medicine was something wonder
fuL Old Wyatt lived in a very large house,
in thoroughly respectable style butler
who looked like an archdeacon and two
parlor maids.
Well, I was very much in love with
Laura (it was Qf teen years ago, and I am
as much in love with her uow as I wits
then). 1 proposed for Laura in form; and
then I had to confess to old Wya't that I
had only six thousand pounds of my own
left I had got through four thousand of
my original ten in the rent of consulting
room, the hire of a brougham, and tbe
usual taxes to which the young consultant
is subjected. I told old Wyatt flatly that
did not want his money, it was bis
daughter 1 wanted and not his ducats.
This statement was absolutely genuine, for
1 was very much in love. I explained to
Mr. Wyatt that by tbe time the rest of the
ten thousand was gone I might honestly
expect to be in receipt of the magnificent
professional income of five hundred a year.
Then old Mr. Wyatt threw himself bock
in his chair and laughed aloud. I thought
he would never leave off laughing. I re
monstrated with him upon bis heartless
conduct.
"My dear fellow," he said, "I can't help
It; It's too ridiculous. Von deliberately
throw away 10.000 and the best years of
your life for the sake of a possible income
of five hundred a year. Now, Dr. Sprigge, I
will not attempt to conceal from you that
my daughter is much attached to you. You
ace young, you are enthusiastic, you are
ready to sacrifice everything for your pro
fession. .Now, the question is: Are you
ready to sacrifice your profession for my
daughter? f cm a bit of a doctor myself,"
he said with a enriotis chuckle, "and I've a
great respect ?or doctors, but there are
reasons fcod and substantial reasons
why my daughter could never marry s
medical man, or, rather, to be more accu
rate, there are reasons why no medical
man could marry my daughter."
What could he mean? It was a most
mysterious statement.
"My dear sir," I said, "if I threw up my
profession for your daughter's sake, we
should not have enough to live on; 6,000
would not last very long."
"You need not trouble yourself about
that," said Mr. Wyatt, "I am fairly well
off. I should tie prepared to give you a
share in my business it's a very good
business ami I'm very fond of my (laugh
ter Laura, and she is my only child, you
know. Don't, be alarmed," said Mr.
Wyatt, "I shouldn't want your money. I
should only want your assistance In devel
oping my business. I could give you a
salary, if you liked say, a couple of thou
sand a year; or, as I said before, you could
have a share In the business."
"But I am not a business man," I remon
strated; "besides, I know nothing what
ever of tbe nature of tbe business," I add
ed, for I was altogether puzzled.
"You will not betray my confldencef"
said Mr. Wyutt, with an air of mystery;
"of course you won't. Well, I'm a bene-,
factor of the human race. Did you ever
bear of Bumstead's Infallible Tincturef I
married Bumstead's widow. Laura is my
daughter by a second marriage this will
give you all the necessary particulars," he
said, as he thrust a little pamphlet into my
bands. "I'll come back for your answer
In a few minutes." Then he left me, and
the room began to turn ronnd and round.
Of course I bad heard of Bumstead's In
fallible Tincture who hasn't? Who has
not read the well known advertisement be
ginning: Have yon got a cold in the head? Try "Bum
stead." Do you suffer from Indigestion? Try "Bum
stead." Is old age creeping upon yon? Try "Bum-
And so on for a whole column. Had not I
been continually irritated by my patients
at the hospital telling me that tbcybad
tried "Bumst-cad" before they tried me?
Was not "Bumstead" familiar in their
mouths as a household word? And my
Laura's father bad married tbe widow of
quack he was a quack .bimsclfl And I
suffered sgonles as 1 remembered that
Laura was a quack's daughter. Tbe idea
was a horrible one.
I read tbe little book. There were hun
dreds of testimonials, according to which
"Bumstead's Tincture" was infallible. The
testimonials were from all sorts and con
ditions of men. They were evidently per
fectly genuine, for they attached their
names snd addresses. Perhaps the mys
terious Bumstead bad discovered the Elixir
Vita. Then I read on till I came to the
description of the remedy itself. It was said
to be "prepared from certain medicinal
plants round only In Central Arabia, Bel-
sn-'tu. fig. "4R"jMsuus regioa et
lb northwestern frontier of CrltS Tar
tar?." Oh. there could not be anything In
It; of eour. It was swlndlo. If it were
only genuine. I felt that I would not hesi
tate for single Instant. At that moment
the door opened and Bumstead I mean
Mr. Wvatt entered.
"Well, my young friend," be said, with a
good humored smile, "What is your ueter-
nilnation?"
"Mr, Wyatt," I said, and I assumed my
very best professional manner, "If 1 could
Only believe In the genuineness of these
testimonials; if I could only think that the
Infallible Tiueture does all that It Is si
to do; If I could only honestly believe In
I would cast principle and pride and preju
dice to the winds aud lustantly jump at
four most 1 berul offer."
"You don't mean to say that you doubt
the genuineness of the testlmouialsl" cried
Mr. Wyatt. in evident Indignation. Then
be read Lord Addlepate's testimonial very
slowly and very softly. "Dr, Sprigge," be
said, at its conclusion, "tord Addlepate is
a peer of the realm, one of our hereditary
legislators. Would you presume to doubt
the word of an hereditary legislator? Call
on his lordship, you are a physician; you
can form your own opinion. The whole
of these testimonials, sir, are absolutely
genuine!" cried Mr. Wyutt, and be
thumped the table with bis list. "I be
lieve in Bumstead, sir, and I've never had
a day's Illness In my life." I did not think
much of that argument.
"Look here," said Mr. Wyatt; "I'll make
you a present of a gross of It. Take It to
St. Skluflint's and try it on your pa
tients." The horrible suggestion caused
me to shudder iu spite of myself.
"Do you care so little for my daughter,
Dr. Sprigge," said Humstead I mean Mr.
Wyatt very solemnly, "that you actually
decline to Investigate the matter? Didn't
tbe whole world lielieve the earth to lie flat
till it was proved to be round? Wasn't
Columbus looked upon as a fool and an
tm)OKtor? Let me tell you, sir, the day is
coming wbeu nil the world will revere the
nume of Humstead."
When 1 looked round unon tbe evident
iligns of wealth, wbeu 1 looked into that
old man's face, and 1 remembered that he
was Laura's father, I could uot doubt the
honesty of his convictions. I seised his
band; there were tears In my eyes
bade him an affectionate farewell.
"I will Investigate IU sir!" I cried, "and
I will communicate tbe result to you In a
fortnight."
Then we shook hands.
e ... I
I went into tbe nearest chemist's. I ask
ed for a bottle of Bumstead's infallible
tincture.
'It's a very valuable remedy, sir," said
tho chemist; "most of our customers flud
it a perfect panacea."
It was strange, very strange. Your true
physiologist never hesitates to make
crucial exieriment umm bis own person,
I took a double dose of Bumstead that
night. It did not have the slightest effect
upon me. I tint-shed the bottle the next
day; It did uot even make me feel ill. 1
did not think much of "Bumstead" as a
medicine. Most valuable remedies make
you feel very 111, Indeed that Is my experi
ence. Then I called on six of the testi
monial givers. They all swore by "Bum
stead." "A man must take medicine of
some sort, sir," one remarked to me; "when
I'm a bit out of sorts I just flies to 'Bum
stead,' and it does me a power of good."
My next step was to insert an advertise
ment ia-the Agony Column of tbe Times.
It ran as follows:
To the physician who recommended "Bum
stead's Infallible Tincture" to an aged noble
man sutTcriug from heart disease. In the Ira
nian train ruuning to Brighton, on the after
noon of Tuesday, the 1. th. Kindly send address.
sad greatly oblige Lord A
Then followed an address in Mayfalr.
I got -17 answers to that advertisement.
Over 200 of them saug tbe praises of "Bum
stead." Thirty Inclosed prospectuses of
rival medicines. One was a very rude let
ter. It rau as follows:
Dkak UtrMsTEAD I'll give you a testimonial
with pleasure on receipt of a postal order for
one pound. .
The six remaining letters were all from
medical men. Each of them declared that
they remembered the Incident perfectly,
that Bumstead's Infallible Tincture was
the very thing, and each of them iutimated
to Lord X. that he had better consult tbe
writer at his earliest convenience. One
was from the senior physician of St. Skin
flint's. After such evidence as this, could I doubt
any longer? Could any man who pos
sessed a well balanced and judicial mind
dare to doubt such evidence as this?
"Bumstead" must indeed he an Infallible
remedy when six eminent physicians, each
traveling by tbe Pullman train to Brighton
on a particular afternoon, should each
bave the good fortune to meet with an
aged nobleman suffering from heart dis
ease, and each and every one of them from
the very bottom of his heart recommended
"Burustead" as a matter of coarse.
On tbe appointed day I called upon Mr.
Wyatt. I respectfully saluted him as a
benefactor of the human race. Within
three months I married Laura. I gave up
the practice of tbe profession as a matter
of conviction. I went into partnemhlp
with old Mr. Wyatt. He died a year or
two ago. He left everything to Laura. I
am a rich man now. I live in Kensington
Park Gardens, and I bave a lovely place In
the country, and 1 became I practically

How tha- Oyster Feeds.
How the oyster feeds may seem a prob
lem. Fixed to an anchorage, how does it
get its food? As seen in a "raw boa,"
which is always "now open," tbe oyster is
shut as close as a clam; but in Its native
habitat iu shells are always a little apart,
and microscopic waving hairs set up cur'
rents which carry the food plants to its
mouth, where they are ingulfed and after
ward digested. . The oyster feeds every
hour, every minute of the day, and turns
material otherwise unavailable into one of
the beat of human foods. Scientific work
by the state and national surveys have prov
ed that nearly three-quarters of tbe bay
are covered by such- mud, and are fitted
to nourish oysters, though only a small
partis oyster bed. Why? The embryo
sinks in the mud, and is smothered. To
thrive, it needs merely some stones or
other solid objects to serve as a resting
nlace. Dr. w. fewell Martin.
