By ELIZABETH WEED
Dr. Vermatille, the renowned Paris
stomach specialist, being overworked,
broke down and was obliged to give
up the practice of" his profession, at
least temporarily. Before starting for
the Kiviera. where he proposed to re
cuperate, he turned over his patients to
Dr. Hartwell, a young American .who
had studied medicine in Paris and aft
er graduation had accepted a position
with Dr. Verr'jatille preparatory to set
ting up for a specialist fn America.
The two were sitting together in
Dr. Vermatille's office, going over an
alphabetical list of patients and a brief
statement of the symptoms of each.
Under the letter "L" came the name of
l.asaut, Louise.
"Mile. Lasant." said Dr. Vermatille,
"you will find a difficult case to diag
nose At least I have not yet made up
my mind as -to the nature of her dis
ease. She is languid, takes no interest
in anything, has no appetite and Is in
clined to melancholy. 1 have recom
mended tl diet of the most digestible
food and given her charcoal and other
itomach remedies. She has responded
to none of them. Possibly you may
stumble on the weak spot that is caus
ing the trouble, aud if you do. as you
well know, the battle is half won."
"Lasant?" said Dr. Hartwell. striv
ing to recall the person to whom the
name belonged. "Is not she a young
lady about twenty .years old, very
beautiful, with chestnut hair and soft
brown eyes? I think i visited such a
patient one day no: it was her mother
wheu you were out of town."
"Perhaps so." replied Dr. Vermatille
and proceeded to give a statement of
the case of the next patient on the list.
A few days after Dr. Vermatille's
departure Dr. Hartwell while making
his round of visitscalled upon Mile.
Lasant. He found her dressed in
negligee costume lying on a lounge in
her boudoir reading a novel. On see
ing the doctor a slight flush came into
her cheeks
"A little fever this morning, eh?"
said the doctor cheerily, at the same
time gently pushing a gold bracelet up
on to her arm that he might feel her
pulse. The moment he touched her
wrist he felt a quickened throbbing.
'"Feverish, not fever." he continued.
"There is a difference, I assure you." .
Then the doctor asked her if she felt
loss of breath in going upstairs,
whether she suffered distress after eat
ing, if she'slept well. To all of these
nuestions-he gave satisfactory replies.
Hartwell. being no wiser as to . her
case than before, resorted to the usual
device of physicians, took out his pre--scription
blanks, and. filling one out
with some hieroglyphics which any
properly educated druggist would
know meant pure water with an agree
able flavoring, be took his leave, prom
ising to call again in a few days.
"At what hour?" asked the young
lady
"About the same as today." replied
the young man.
On his next visit he found his pa
tient in a ravishing morning costume,
some cut flowers in a vase standing
on a table and a silk blanket of colors
becoming to the young lady's complex
ion thrown over her.
"Ah." he exclaimed, "I see that you
are much better!"
"Better? I assure you I am much
worse I thought yon said yon were
coming again in a few days?"
"This is Friday. I was here on
Monday."
"But I expected you on Wednesday."
"Pardon my neglect. Since Dr. Ver
matille's departure I have been -very
busy."
When this morning the doctor, took
the round wrist between his thumb
'and the tips of his fingers he felt not
only a quick throbbing In his patient,
but n tingling of bis own, which, cours
ing through his arm, thrilled him.
"I think." he said, "that your trouble
is in the heart."
The'patient lowered her eyes.
"You need fresh air. There Is noth
ing like pure oxygen to build up the
system. Instead of giving you drugs I
will take yon out to the Bois de Bou
logne The buds are swelling and the
birds are singing My carriage stands
at the door. What do yon say?"
Throwing off her silken blanket, she
sprang from her couch, ran into an
other room to change her costume and
presently returned charmingly dressed
for a drive
Paris in the spring bas always been
a delightful city, and the spring season
is admirably adapted for making love.
The young doctor, having discovered
the kind of medicine hi.s patient re
quired, gave it in sugar coated doses.
He drove her out every day that he
could possibly snatch from his duties,
and when not able to see her in the
daytime he made up for the loss by
a long visit In the evening. Indeed,
most of his time during his chiefs ab
sence was given to one patient, the
only one of the lot who did not need
his professional attention.
When Dr Vermatille returned he sat
down with bis assistant to listen to a
report of the condition of his patients.
"Lasant. Louise." he said, reading
from the list
"Recovered I found that from the
date of my visit to Mme. Lasant some
time before your departure her daugh
ter suffered from cardiac trouble."
"What treatment did yon apply?"
"1 acted on the homeopathic princi
ple of Mike fiires like."
"H'iii! The next is Lavlgne, Henri."

GliMGO SOILS
O. J. Eergsr, of Eudora, Kansas,
writes: "I am on gumbo land, and it

drained, and some say it can't be tlie 1
for a paste forms around the tile and
the water can't get. through it. How
would concrete tile do? Can you g.v
me any information on this subject?
What" we tsualiy refer to as gumbo
soil is a very heavy type of soil. In
some localities is is very dark in color
while in other places it is slightly
grayish in color. In the state of lova
the gumbo soils are ve:y ,dark .and
usually very heavy, while in parts of
Kansas, also other parts of Iowa, the
gumbo is of a light color, often of a
reddish cast.
One of the first . steps to take in
attempting to handle gumbo land is tr
see that it is well drained. The ve;y
close grained, finely textured gumbo
soils of Iowa have been drained sue-

cessfully both, by using open ditches
and by using tile drain. In fact, some
of the gumbo soils that have been
tile drained often sell as high as $200
per acre The experience in handling
tne heavy, sticky soils-indicates that
it is not necessary to place the tile, as
one would naturally think, close to
gether and as shallow as first' consid
eration might indicate. The experi
ence of farmers in the heavy, waxy
soils of Iowa shows that the tile lines
are often placed ten to twelve rods
apart, which is ample distance even
in some other types of soil. The best
way to settle this matter, inasmuch a?
these soils-vary considerably, is to p t

In as many lines of you can con
veniently and watca te'effect. or use
only one tile lice arid note the dis
tance it drains on either side: . This
would ta'-re but a short time for the
effect can usually be noticed on c'.ose
observation.
It is highly important that you have
a good outlet in attempting to use tile.
After ihe land is 'well drained, -the
next important step is tint of tillage.
It has l:een found that for alt kinds of
conditions fall plowing is the'besl for
gumbo soils. Tre act'on of freezing
and thawing during the winter months
renders the serd bed much more friable
and redvees the c'ods in a way that
cannot te accomplished by mechanical
means. Care should re exercised nrt
to plow cr to cnitiva e this type of
soil when it is unusually wet for it
puddles very quickly, forming clods
which can be reduceed only by freezing
and thawing.
One cf- the objectionable features ol
gumbo soil is the terden'cy to shrink
when drying out, thus injuring the
crop materially. The time that this
occurs is usually during the summer
months. This objection may be' over
come by surface tillage, using the
spring-tooth, peg-tooth or disk har
rows, together with cultivators, or any
other means of maintaining a surface
mulch to a depth of three or four
inches.
Gumbo soils when well drained and
in a good state of cultivat'on. which
may be maintained as stated above,
give splendid yields; in fact, better
than some other kinds of sMls in the
corn belt. A frequent arrli a'ion of
stable manure is also 1 enefic al to
these soils, insi ich as it supplies
vegetable matte-, tlms render'ng the
soil lighter and putting It in a betteT
physical cond'ticn.
Some claim ttat the cemeV1 til? pre
more porous and thus permit a t:e t
movemert cf the water than the c'av
tile, but in ren ity tere is very it la
difference. As far as .the pores of the
tile becoming filled is cocernei, one
would probably fill up about as quicklv
as the other. A large percentage
of the water that enters the tile
goes through the joints and does not
soak directly through the tile.'-You
will find that well vitrified tile or
carefully made cement tile will serve
your purpose satisfactorily. In cases
where the trouble from alkali is ex
ceptionally severe, it may be best to
use the clay tila in preference to the
cement.
Yours very truly,

as he was known on the New York

no means vindictive, did not readily
forget an injury, and one day an elder
ly millionaire who had injured him in
the past rushed excitedly into his of
fice and shouted: ,
"McCluskey. one of t-our men just
called me a spavined old- mule! What
are you going to do about it?"
"Do? Why. nothing." the inspector
answered. "I can't patch yon np. I
