The PHYSICIAN carried In HU hand A

"I'U play a Joke with this," ha said,
"on a bay fever patient"
And HA placed the goldenrod to a

The elderly colonel who aat beside
the physician waa the victim of hay

goldenrod than bp turned red with
rage.

Interrupted him. He sn eased agala

Finally be could apeak.
"Take away that goldenrod!" be aald
to the waiter. "Just look at the spell
It has given me! Who put It thereT**
"I put It there," aald the physician.
"You bad little to do!" aald the colo
nel bitterly. "Look at the state It baa,

Then the physician and every one
else at tbe table burst Into loud laugh

"It la artificial," they cried In cborua
—"artificial goldenrod! You have sneea
ad and gone on like this over a bunch
af paper flowers."
Tbe colonel, seeing the joke, laughed
himself. The phyalclan said In a con
solatory voice:
"Never mind, colonel; jqfi are not the

It I* an ancient custom to Hungary
that when a medical candidate haa
pisaed hie examination with distinc
tion and tbe doctor's degree Is con
ferred sab susfilctis regis he should
receive from tbe emperor of Austria
(king of Hungary) a ring bearing the
Initials "P. jr." set In brilliants. After
a certain time be Is admitted to present
bis thanks to peraon to the sovereign.
In connection with this custom a cari
ous problem recently exercised the
mind of s young doctor who vss serv
ing hie time in tbe army ss s "on®
yesr volunteer." Being Invited to pre
sent himself before tbe emperor, be
wsS greatly pussled how to do so, for
on tbe one band as s private soldier he
ought to wear his shako, while 00 tbe
other AA a doctor of medicine he should
carry bis bat under HIS arm. In hie
perplexity be sought counsel of bla
colonel, wbo after careful considera
tion delivered himself of tbe following
opinion:
"It the emperor speaks to you In
German, which Is tbe Isugusge of the
army, you must regard yourself aa a
plain one year volunteer, and you wUI
therefore keep your shako on yoar
head. But should bis Imperial majesty
address you In Hungarian this means
that be sees In you s doctor of medi
cine rather than a soldier, and you
must therefore uncover your head."—

Two military kites attached by steel

this waa attached a cane Beat, In which

easily along the wire, but at an alti

"Tbe growers of cotton and cot
ton seed can and should control
tbe market by holding back both
cotton mid seed until they can se
cure a price that will conditions
warrant. Unless they do, they will
find they have parted with three

the cotton and seed speculator will

come much sooner if you hold, for

your crop freely, the speculator
will bold down prices.
