AN ENGAGING DOCTOR.
Mr. Charles Marion had ridden a
vicious horse, against the express
prohibition of every ’body who
knows anything about it, and a bro
ken arm was the consequence. .
Squire Selwyn’s black horse,
Thunder, was well known in the
vicinity, and his extraordinary fac
ulty for multiplying broken limbs
and broken heads had brought him
into such disrepute that the squire
was obliged to keep him because
nobody would purchase him.
Charles was the squire’s nephew, a
young man of twenty-five or six,
and quite as conceited as young
nen usually are. He had come on
from the city for a month’s vacation
and having ridden Thunder, and
got his arm broken, was safely
housed away in the great cool spare
chamber to await the coming of a
physician.
“How very unfortunate it is,”
said Kate Selwyn, entering th«
chamber just as Charles’ small^lock
of patience was exhausted; “but Dr.
Stone has gone out of town for a
week, and left Dr. Forney to take
hiS place.”
“Send for Dr. Forney then,” ex
claimed Charles, impatiently.
I have already done so, but I ex
pect you will decapitate me for it.
You know you detest strong mind
ed women, and Dr. Forney
“Of course I do. A strong mind
ed woman ought to be put in a
straight jacket. But what has
that got to do with Dr. Forney?”
“Oh, here she is!” cried Kate, and
the door opened to admit a rather
slight young woman of about
two and twenty. She was rosy and
pretty, with soft loose curls of yel
lowish hair, a pair of very mis
chievous brown eyes, and a set of
teeth white as pearls. She showed
them when she smiled, and Charles
said spitefully to himself that she
smiled for that exclusive purpose.
“A patient for you, doctor,” said
Kate, indicating Charles with a nod.
“Good gracious!” cried the pa
tient. “You don’t pretend to say
that this young lady is a doctor?”
“Dr. Forney, Mr. Marvin,” said
Kate gravely.
“I beg your pardon,” said Charles
a little haughtily. “I should prefer
to have my arm attended to by a—
a gentleman.
“I am very sorry for your sake
that I am not .a gentleman,” said
Dr. Forney bowing. “I regret it
extremely; but I do not see how I
can help it.”
“Ko, no; of course not. But do
you think you have courage enough
to set a broken limb?”
“Try me, and then answer the
question yourself.”
Without more ado the doctor pro
ceeded to business; and though
Charles was as nervous as any old
woman, the limb was skilfully set,
and the patient quieted down to
sleep before Dr. Alice Forney left
him.
When Charles awoke he was pre
pared to be very much outraged.
“I declare it is abominable,” he
said to Kate, to think of that little
bit of pink and white femininity
being a doctor! Why she looks as
if she was just fit to sort worsted
and work blue dogs on yellow back-
grond. A woman with a profession
is simply disgusting. And the idea
of that girl going about and setting
broken limbs and giving physic!
Faugh!
“She’s a pretty, genteel girl,”
said old Mrs. Selwyn warmly
and don’t spend half her time in
dwadling around and curling her
hair. She means to make herself
useful, she says; and so she does.
She gave something for my new-
rollogy that cured me right up.
“And she is so gentle, and has a
a kind word for every body, said
Kate.”
“I can’t help that,” said Charles;
she can’t be a true woman and
usurp the profession of a man.
Goodness! I wonder how a fellow
would feel making love to her?
“Suppose you try it and find out?”
said Kate wickedly.
Me? Humph! I wouldn’t marry
an angel if she had a profession.
Heaven deliver me from your
strong-minded women.
“Hang Dr. Stone!” returned
Charles irreverently.
“Oh,no! I thought that you had
more confidence in men as physi
cians, than in women.”
“Who told you so?”
“I had received that impression.
And I thought that you would be
delighted that he had returned.”
“Well I am not.”
“Ch! Indeed!”
“No.”
You will do well enough now, Mr.
Marion, under any circumstances.
Your arm is in a very good con
dition, and in a few days——
“I tell you it aches horridly, and
my head too. Seems as if you
might have some pity on me.”
“Of course I pity you very much;
but I cannot stay to tell you so now,
I am rather busy at this time. I
have got a great many things to
get ready you know.”
“For wdiat? Ready for what?
gasped Charles. Good heavens!
you don’t mean to say that you are
going to be married ?”
“No, I am going west.”
“For how long?”
“An indefinite period. For all
my life, if I am pleased with the
country. You know I have my for
tune to make, and there is a very
good opening in Wisconsin.”
Something rose up in Charles
Marion’s throat and nearly suffocat
ed him. He put out his hand and
drew Dr. Forney to his side. And
the doctor looked embarrassed and
blushed, just as any other trirl would
have done under such circum
stances.
“Don’t go?” said Charles, eagerly
“If it is an opening you are looking
for, there is one nearer home!”
And he opened his arms, entirely
forgetting that one of them was
unfit for service.
Mr. Marion!
“Alice, I love you! There—it is
out, thank heaven! I love j T ou
with my whole soul!”
“Nonsense!” said Alice. “How
a fellow must feel making love to
a lernale doctor!”
“You overheard my insane talk!
Well, never mind. I don’t care a
particle. It will give you a chance
to exercise your spirit of forgiveness.
For. Alice, my darling, you are not
going about setting any more
broken bones, and you will kill
more than you cure.”
Dr. Forney succumbed to Mr.
Marion’s logic and became his wife
as soon as he was able to be about
his business. She has not practiced
any since her marriage, and Charles
has quite overcome his prejudice
for women who follow professions.

Ready for Business !
MA.NAU,
My love was like a lily fair,
Low drooping In the sultry air,
My heart was rent with grief and care.
X loved her well.
But lo! The wonder grows and grows;
My love’s like a blooming rose.
How bright her face with beauty glows,
I dare not tell.
The wand'ering bee would stop to sip,
The nectar of her perfect lip.
’Twas Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip-
Tion wrought the spell.
But notwithstanding Charles’dis
gust of professional females, he
flourished finely under Dr. Forney’s
care. The Doctor came every day,
and her calls were lengthy for pro
fessional ones. Mr. Marion had so
much to tell about his sleepless
nights, and his weary days, and the
little twinges of pain in his arm,
and the way his head felt, and so on
and so forth, that Dr. Forney’s fore
noons were generally half absorbed
in these visits to her squeamish pa
tient.
One day the doctor came later
than usual, and seemed a little hur
ried in her manner. She did not
give Charles’ headache as much
sympathy as usual, and when he be
gan to talk about his nerves she
looked out of the window and ap
parently did not hear him.
Charles felt wronged and insult
ed. What did he pay a physician
tor but to comfort him and give him
sympathy? Especially when that
physician was a woman.
“You will be well attended to
now,” said the doctor rising to go.
Dr.Stone has returned and will see
you before night.”
