approach, but continued muttering to
himself.

thing went,” he mused audibly. .

“Saw what?”
“The little pea. ”
“They’ re born every minute,” de-
,clared Thomson, sadly.

will get one of the doctors here to use
it. Yours truly,” '
Here is the local man’s reply.
“Dear Sir: Very sorry I cannot find
time to visit you. Nor will I be able to
send my apparatus. If you can’t- come
to Cleveland yourself. send me your
thorax by express, and I will do the best-
I can with it. Yours truly, ' ”
