DR. WHITMARTIPS CRIME.
. Young Dr. . Whitmarth, although
equally devoid of impudence and money.
was greatly liked by ell tho ladies in his
native town of Purview. Scarcely any
oi ms lair acquaintances bad ever
thought of him as a possible husband,
for a great many city families lived at.
Purview during part of the year, and
tney naa set tne tone oi the place with
tiie enect tnat all tne young women, in
eluding, of course, their own. were fully
- 1 A 1 - . t
convinced -iuai to marry a poor man
was about as reprehensible an indiscre
tion as a girl could commit. Occasion
ally one of the Doctor's young admirers
would venture the 'opinion that Mr.
"Whitmarth would mak a very affection
ate and careful husband, but on such
occasions the damsel's mother, or some
girl's mother, might be depended upon
to explain tnat anection and care were
not all that women needed of their hus
bands, and that physicians could never
find time to give their wives full advan
tages of society, without which, of
course, life would not be worth the
living.
But most of the warnings of which the
Doctor was the subject wereentirelv nn
necessary, for the young msn had not
the slightest intention or thought of
marrying, or even making love, within a
few years. He had a motber and sister
dependent on his income for support.and
as his patients came to him mostly by
the accident of older and more experi
enced physicians being otherwise en
gaged when wanted, Dr. Whitmarth
could not think of adding a wife to his
. financial responsibilities. His charming
manner and many courtesies to women
were not prompted by tbo thoughts of
love to which all men s hearts aro sup
posed to turn constantly, but by the
knowledge of womanly traits which he
aoquired under tho influence of his
mother and sister, who were pronounced
by all their acquaintances to be quite as
aeiigntiui as tne .Doctor Himself. Astute
young women at Purview were some
times heard to remark that men brought
tneir DU3ines3 ways into society, and
that, no matter how graoefully they
massed tnem, there were generally pur
poses of personal gain behind their at
tentions; if a pretty girl received an ex
pensive bouquet or a quite too lovely
box of bon-bons from a gentleman, she
might expect the girer to monopolize
. her, in spite of herself, at the next dance
or garden party afr which they both an
peared, the results often being more
provoking than the presents justified.
iiut Dr. Whitmarth seemed to offer
courtesies solely that the-ladies them
selves might be pleased; whatever he re
ceived in return was the result of the
principle that it is more blessed to give
than to receive. Although it meant
nothing to men, "Dr. Whitmarth's way"
came to be an expression that all women
at Purview translated with entire ease
and accuracy.
But the .Doctor's fate in feminine form
finally appeared, and he recognized it at
first sight. The Marvells, a delightful
couple oi middle-aged people, who had
lived in the town only a few months.
were known to have a daughter who had
been for several years at a famous school
for young women. When Miss Alice
graduated and came home, her parents
gave a party in honor of the event, and
every one who was any one in Purview
admitted, at least to themselves, that
Alice Marvell would be the belle of Pur
view unless she herself forbade" it. A
few stupid people who thought woman's
attractiveness consisted only of face and
figure, attempted to combat the general
impression', but their efforts Were fruit
less, for although there were maidens in
Purview whose features were more regu
lar than Alice Marvell's, and who were
somewhat more shapely wben dressed to
advantage.none of them could match the
air of refinement that their new rival
had inherited from a long line of honor
able apcestors and had made more
charming by a carefully-trained mind.
The Doctor, like every other young
man at Purview, lost his heart at once,
and Miss Marvell seemed fonder of him
than of any other of her numerous ad
mirers. But the Doctor dared not to
propose while earning only a little more
than a thousand dollars a year,and while
he was wildly wondering how he might
increase his income, another man won
Miss Marvell's hand. Balph Frasher,
although young, was a successful man;
He had a keen eye for whatever was
worth having, whether for purposes of
sport or profit; he drove fast horses,
sailel a handsome yaoht, knew how to
order and eat a good dinner and to buy
bits of property that were sure to in
crease in value. When he saw Alice
Marvell he realized that she was one of
the rarest of her kind, so he went
promptly to work, in his business-like
way, to secure her. He was 'not entirely
to the young lady's taste, for although
his scanners were all that cound be ac
quired by careful imitation of other men,
he was never at that ease in conversation
which most pleased Miss Alice, and his
tastes and habits bad stamped his faoe
with something that the young lady
??ulrneilher understand - nor admire.
?f r; ftrJe11 WftS oquaUj slow to admire
Ralph Frasher, for the old gentleman
knew men and their ways, but his wife,
to whom he had not the heart to tell all
he knew and believed about the ways of
the world, said, when D rasher proposed,
that their daughter could never hope to
make a safer or more fortunate match, so
Alice acted on her mother's advice and
became Mrs. Frasher.
The Doctor's heart did not. break; it
became very sore, but its owner told
himself that if the union proved a happy
one no one would rejoice more than he.
But the time for the Doctor to rejoioe
never came. When the couple returned
from their bridal tour Alice's habitual
composure seemed to the Doctor to
have a touch of resignation in it,
and Frasher seemed a little more burly
than nnsnal. The Doctor heard people
say, as they have of millions of other
young wives, "How marriage does sober
a bright girl!" and he raged inwardly,
for he was sure that to a nature like
Alice Marvell's marriage should have
brought summer of life instead of a sug
gestion of autumn. He observed the
couple whenever he taw them, and be
came more and more convinced that
Frasher never regarded his wife more
than property very valuable, certainly,
and deserving of as much care as a
promising young colt, a new grapery or
a villa site on a favorite street, but still
property. The Doctor was sure, too,
that life with Balph Frasher was a liv
ing death to Alice Marvell ; that Frasher's
tastes were not to her liking; his friends
like himself, entirely of the earth earthly,
and his attempts at affection repulsive.
When thefDoctor saw Frasher driving to
the station with his wife by his side he
could only think of master and slave;
when he saw Mrs. Jb rasher driving home
alone her face told him that the absence
of the master would not release the
slave from bondage.
And yet all unmarried women at Pur
view envieed Mrs.. Frasher, for did not
that lady herself fully admit that her
every wish was gratified if money would
do it? Did she have as many dresses and
jewels as there were parties at Purview?
Had she not her special ponies and car
riage to drive? Was not her cabin, on
her husband's yacht, the most excruisite
little boudoir in the world? The Doctor
heard all this and wondered if his moth
er and sister were the only two true wo-
nten alive?
One evening in early winter the Doc
go at once to Balph Frasher; with the
tact peculiar to his class, tne man said
he had been sent first to the elder phy
sicians, but one of them was sick and
the other in attendance on a patient
whom he could not leave. Whitmarth
promised to go at once, but declined to
ride in Frasher's oarriage. which the
1.1 1i A -a
groom naa orougnt. as ne narnessed
his owh pony to his shabby coupe, he
half regretted that he had not made
some exouse. His honor as a physician
required that he should answer the call,
but how pitiless was fate that he, of all
men, should bo obliged to repair the
chain that retained Alice Marvel in
bondage. .
. He found Frasher suffering from a
severe attack of pneumonia, but old Dr.
Mayze, Mrs. Frasher said, had sent word
that Dr. Whitmarth was quite fortunate
with such cases. The Doctor's heart
accused him when he saw Frasher's
strained face and heavy breathing, for.
what could he say against the fellow
except that he had married a woman far
above him in all that makes humanity
admirable? He determined that he
would do all in his power to save the
man's life, and he sent at once for stim
ulants and other medicines.
"Is there any hope?" asked Mrs. Fra
sher, after the Doctor's messenger had
departed.
The Doctor looked toward the door of
the sick room and answered quite oher-
rny, "Uh, yes."
iue iook iurs. j? rasner gave him in
return was not what he expected, he
translated it to mean that hope of her
nusband s recovery implied no hope for
her. The lady left the room and the
Doctor paced to and fro in extreme agi
tation; by the time the . messenger re
turned one quality of Dr. Whitmarth's
nature seemed gone forever. He busied
himself about the sick bed; he nursed
his patient apparently with great care.
but he gave smaller doses of medicine
than any homoaopathist would have
dared to do, and the outward applianoes
were powerless for good or harm. Early
in the morning he told a servant to call
Mrs. Frasher, and then, although all
night long he had been confessing to
heaven that he was a villain, he prayed
tnat sue mignc not come in time. Mis
prayer was answered, for as the lady en
tered the room he said, almost in a whis

The President's Nose.
Probably the most trying experience
President Arthur has had since he filled
the executive chair was in entertaining a
delegation from a Boston temperance al
liance, on his return from Florida. The
delegation consisted of half a dozen
dried-up men, with blue spectacles and
umbrellas, and several ancient females
who looked as though they never could
endure a man who touohed or tasted any
intoxicating beverage. Thev had an ap
pointment to meet the president, to talk.
with him about the cause of temperance,
which was dear to their hearts. He was
just back from his fishing excursion, and
as he put some cold cream on a place on'
his nose where the skin had come off,
preparatory to going into the blue room
to meet the delegation, his servant said
to him:
"Mr. President, I had rather you
would meet any other delegation on earth
than this temperanoecrowd. They have
oome to size you up and see if the re
ports that you steam it too much are
true, and your nose and face is a dead
give away. None of the delegation prob
ably ever went fishing and it will hard to
convince them that the blisters and sun
burn is not the result of looking upon
the wine. .Now, the first thing you do
when you meet them, you apologize for
your appearance and talk about fishing
in the sun, and all that."
The president felt a little nervous, but
after throwing his cigar stub away, he
went into the room where the delegation
was, looking like a boiled lobster. The
delegation was drawn up in line, and
every eye was upon his nose. The leader
made a few remarks upon the object of
their visit, and while he was speaking,
the women looked at each other as much
as to say: "I told you so," "What a dis
gusting exhibition," etc., and the presi
dent blushed until you could touch a
match to his face anywhere. When the
leader had concluded, the president
said: .
"Ladies and gentlemen, glad as I am
to see so distinguished a party, I must
apologize for my appearance. 1 he fact
of It is, a few of us have been indulging
in a little"
"Don't apologize, Mr. President," said
a vinegar-faced female. "We can read
ily take in the situation by your face. It
is a duty we owe to ourselves and the
country to reason with you. Strong
dnnK is the bane of our land. O, why,
why will men put a Berpent in their
mouths to steal away "
"But, excuse me, madam," said the
president, interrupting the female, "you
are mistaken. The direct cause of this
sanguinary appearance of my face and
nose is owing to a little recreation," and
he rubbed his nose with his finger to see
if any more skin was loose. "Chandler
and a lot of us who had been bottled up
here for many months decided to imbibe
a little of th "
"I beg pardon," said one of the blue-
nosed gentlemen, "we do not care for
any oonfession as to what you and
Chandler imbibed. We feel that a few
words from us can do no harm, and
while it may seem out of place for pn
vate citizens to advise a chief magistrate,
our position as temperance people makes
us bold to ask you to banish the winecnp
trom your table, and set an example that
can be safely followed by the youth of
the land,"
xruring tne taiK oi tne oiuenosed man
the president swallowed a bit of tobacco
that had remained in his mouth from his
cigar, and began to hiccough. You
know how a little tobacoo will some
times cause a man to act as though he
was full. The president would almost
have given his right hand if the tobacco
had been in hades instead of down his
neck, for he could see at the first "hio"
that every eye in the delegntion was on
him, and all believed he was drunk.

except the temperance delegation. Put
ting his hand over his mouth to hide the
hicoough that the wicked tobacco had
caused, he said :
"Imbibing a desire to go fishinor, Mr.
Chandler and myself visited Florida, and
for several days we were exposed to the
elements, and became sunburnt, and you

is the result of swallowing a bit of to
bacco, and is unfortunate in coming at
this time. I will weigh well what von
have said, and now I bid you (hie) good

tired, while the delegation looked about
the room, said to each other that thev
had witnessed a sight that would cause
the stoutest- heart to quail, and they
wont out of the White House sick at

his servant, when he got to his room,

wish I were dead, and I want him to
come and attend me. Tell him to bring
something that will cure sunburn and
blisters on the nose at once, or I aa a

The Mortuary Language of Flowers.
Why the primrose should have been
chosen as his emblem i3 not very clear;
nor, considering that the color of the
flower is so very like that of brimstone.is
it particularly complimentary. At this
season of the year many poor people
gain money by picking these flowers in
the woods and sending them up to Lon
don for sale. It is gratifying, therefore,
to think that the Conservatives really do
good by purchasing these flowers and
decorating their coats with them on the
anniversary of Lord Baconsfield's death.
I wonder what flower will be consecrated
to the memory of Mr. Gladstone when
he has passed away? He, so far as I am
aware, has never avowed his preference
for any particular one. A sprig of oak
might, perhaps, be his emblem, to de
note the vigor with which he has felled
trees. Mr. Chamberlain's weakness is
an orchid; but if, when we have lost him,
the wearing of orohids becomes a habit
on the anniversary of his death, this rec
ognition of his services will be some
what expensive. If this mortuary lan
guage of flowers is to previil largely, it
will be necessary to publish an almanac
so that we may clearly know what we are
doing when we put a flower, in our but
