Dr. Minter's sole tangible possessigns were a pretty good stock of medicines and surgic al instruments, and a loving little wife whom he well nigh idolized. He had taken a tiny house in the pretty town of Pineville and had boldly displayed a brass plate, al- though it was directy opposite that of Dr. Jagger, who supported Lis with many years of experience, a generous sprinkling of gray hairs, and pomposity of manners. Tie unpretending hittle house, taken by the new doctor consisted of four rooms and a surgery.

She had heard that a wife had much inflatnee in establishing a practice ; and she resolved that if her hus- band lacked business it should not be owing to any dereliction of duty on ber part, She gathered all the children of the neighborhood about her and amused them by the hour with stories ; she dressed dolls for the little girls and played horge with the boys. She receiy- ed all calls with the utmost affubility, re- turned them promptly and was sociable with the most stupid and tiresome as well as with the most eligible in habitants of the town. Pineville was a place of considerable gaivty aud the newcomers on principal responded to all their iuyitations to parties end tea drinkings.

There was an air of command to Dr. Min. ter's manner which enforced obedience, and mechanically the women, who had seemed almost like mumics, proceeded to execute his orders.

Finally another patient fell into bis hands, which proved to be of the of the utmost value to him. Miss Dickford had been confined to her bed for many years, and the case had already baffled the skill of twelve physicians. Tt had been her custom to send 'or every new one who came into the neighborhood, and ¢ach one in turn had doctored her for al- most every discase which the human flesh is heir to, but in vain ; she was still bur- dened with every imaginable pain and ache. and was unable to turn without assistance.

After he had carefull felt her pulse, examined her tongue. and made a few enquiries, she lan- guidly opened her eyes, and asked in a sup- pressed. whisper, as though he were almost afraid ot disturbing her own departing spirit, ¢ Do you think: there is any hope for me, doctor 2 E ' Hope for you?
