Ssatter, the proprietor ot a drug siore is Williamsburg. Little Willie Sautter lives in a cellar, has his playground in a cellar, and lie has r.o playmates of his own ege It is seldom that he sees the light of day pave as it sifts through tho gratirge about hia subterranean home. Occasionally his father, who is his nurse, teacher, playirinte -it'd rompon ion. fakes him out for a dr; re, Pm Wil lie Fstiffer fur nearly two years has lined undr the ground. Willie Pautter has been an invalid fc-em childhood. lie lost tho care and loTe of his mother when he was a woo baby end was thrown upon the love— sincere indeed—of female relatives. From birth the child was afflicted with a nervous discs t which eventually de veloped into spinal mouingitia Tho lit tie one was afflicted with spasms fre quently and for years it was considered that his life wae only a question of a few days at any time, but he struggled along in the care of various people ■without gaining any relief from his suffering until recently, when his fa ther wae told by physicians that there was no further hope for him. The life of this little boy was, and is. the life of Dr. Sautter He made up his mind he would save the little weak boy, and he went about hia task in a way that sim ply stupefied his friends. J)r. Sautter's drug store is 25 feet wide end about 100 feet long. Iho cel lar is hewn from solid rock ana is as dry a9 a furnace Before taking charge of the child Dr. Sautter—who had evolved an idea in his mind ae to the proper method of treatment—boxed off a space in the front part of the cellar about 31 by 16 feet. Thid place bo fur nished up most luxuriously. On the floor he placed soft carpets, the walls he adorned with choice pictures and the furniture would do credit to any man sion in the world. He had cunningly concealed in almost every movable arti cle of furniture music boxes. When first Willie Sautter was placed in his new dwelling place he could scarcely utter an intelligible word. He was highly nervous, and almost every night he had spasma His disease was diagnosed by his father ns one requiring absolute rest and quiet. Tho little fel low was immediately taught thatt^ At Ntorcsi FOrmerlr Occupied !>> ■■ 1 Wf I A A P A II m A a JUotr H. on ana squinnett aua Voire troni ills sleep uttering inarticulate sounds. But constant cere soon impressed upon his receptive mind that ho was in a place where there was nothing to bother him. For days and days he saw no face bnt the face of his father, beard no voice hut the voiße of his father —in fact, heard no sound but the sound of bis fa ther's voice, for his underground home is as securely hidden away from the noises of the streets as though it were et the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. In a little while the boy was able to speak after a fashion. No ono could un derstand him but the father, however, who spent hours with his little son, training him to utter words unfamiliar to the halting vocal organs. Then came an improvement strikingly noticeable, and Dr. Sautter felt encouraged, though his friends bad wanted him that the cellar home would be the death of the boy. About six months ago the little fel low progressed so far in the knowledge of language that he was able to con verse intelligently, end then his father would allow him to visit the store every few days. He discovered tlmt Willie took a great interest in the big soda water fountain and that tho interest thus engendered aroused an excitement that brought ra ail the old symptoms of nervousness. After some thought Dr. Rauttor decided upon another novel move. He fixed up a soda water foun tain in tho cellar cud turned it over to the care of bis little boy. This soda water fountain is a wander in its way. In miniature it lias all the attributes of a first class fountain—fau cets, glasses, mirrors, marble fronts and everything else. After the fountain wus in working order Dr. Sautter dis covered that it wa3 a great source of delight to the lone little lioy. He wasted many a gallon of carbonated water, but the fountain occupied his time. Some months since Dr. Sautter pur chased for the little fellow a tricycle end laid out a course for him on tbe smooth stone floor of tho cellar. At first the boy would not mount tbe ma chine. Now he can dodge posts with great skill, and be looks forward confi dently to the day when his papa shall buy him a bicycle. The theory Dr. Sautter bus worked upon is that the boy required absolute qniet and rest. This he has enjoyed un 'll he is now almost a robust youngster. From a ride every month in a carriage with his father he has reached a stage when he takes a rido nice a week, gets home to his underground nest and sleeps 14 hours at a stretch. From all indica tions he will in another year be ro bust, healthy member of the community. And in all the time he bos lived in his cellar homo he has never taken a single dose of medicine.—New York Journal. evoked t*y Hia False Teetli.
