At the same time feel ing a strange sensation about his head, he placed his hand rather heav ily thereon. “ Heavens on earth! What ails my head.” “ For mercy’s sake, keep quiet,” said his wife. “ Y’ou have been very ill. There, there, now; don’ t sav a word, but lie very s t ill” “ But my head! What’s the matter with my he id? It feels as if scalded Where's my hair? Heavens and earth, S a ia i; I don't understand this! What’s my arm tied in this way for?” “ Be quiet, my dear husband, and I ’ll explain it all. Oh, be very quiet. Your life depends upon it!” Mr. H — sank back upon his pillow. He put his hand to his head and felt it tenderly from temple to temple and from nape to forehead. “ Is it a blister?” he at length asked. “ Yes. dear. You have boen very- ill. W e feared for your life,” said Mrs. H — “ There have been two physicians in attendance. ’ H — closed his eyes again. His lips moved. Those whispered words would have sounded very strange in a church. “ Threatened with apoplexy, I sup pose?” ho said interrogatively. “ Yes. dear,” replied his wife.” “ I foilfcd you lying insensible on the floor on happening to come into your room.

At last bis friends urged him to shut himself up ut home for a certain time. Ho got oil iretty well for a few days, particular- y so as his coachman kept a well- tilled bottle for him in the carriage- house; but the too ardent devotion to this bottle brought on this supposed apoplexy. Dr. S— was right in his mode of treating the disease after all, and did not err in supposing that it would reach the predisposition. The cure was effectual. H — kept quiet on the subject, and bore his shaved head on his shoulders with as much philos ophy ns he could muster. A wig, ’ter the sores made by the blister had disappeared, concealed the bar ber’s work until his own hair grow again.
