1 The case of Thomas Cutter, of Bed
log, Calaveras county, was a puzzle to '-;
the doctors. Be had such a Tariety of
Xecnliar symptoms that medical opin
ion inclined to the belief that he suf
fered from a complication of diseases.
To one -doctor the liver, seemed to be
the chief organ at fault to another, the
great trouble appeared to be in thekid
liays; while a third would say that in
testinal indigestion was the main diffi
culty. And yet Mr. Cutter had been ad
vised that his stomach was chronically
disordered, and still another diagnosis
found grave derangement of the heart's
action, . -

to treatment. , lie had Buch a distrust
of medical science that hes would not!
long adhere to the advice of any physi
cian, lie consulted doctor after doctor
and ach expressed dissatisfaction with
the previous treatment and diagnosis, j
There seemed to be so many things'
wrong with his internal organs that
there was room for a great diversity of
ophnioh, and yet none of the doctors
need be wholly astray.
If Mr. Cutter did not get well it was
not because he had failed to take medi
cine Ho had a morbid delight in drugs. J
A f cr completing the rounds of the doctor;-'
offices in his town he 'would some
times take a course of patent medicines
of his own account. He spent hours in
reading the advertisements of the va
rious nostrums, and occasionally he
would fmd a recital of sjmptoms that
apeofed to coincide with his own.
Thon he would rush to the nearest drug
store, buv a bottle of the much-wanted
remedy and faithfully take the dose prescribed.-.
By the time he had exhausted
the bottle hio fickle thirst for medica
tion had found some fresh object of at
traction, or he had repaired to some
practicing physician, regular or irreg
nlar.
The wonder was, in view of the quan
tities of medicine he took, that he con
tinued well enough to attend to his of- j
icial duties as treasurer of Calaveras
county. .Moreover, he drank more
whisky than he could well carry with
crtire equilibrium. Anotherfailingwas
a fondness for faro, which gossips said
had often cost him more than he could
afTord to lose. His drinking and gam
bling were the only things that served
to divert his attention from his real or
imaginary ailments. W7ere it not for
cards and liquor, as he expressed it, his
stomach would have been constantly
upen his mind. But some of his cronies
declared that there was nothing in re-
.rity the matter with him; that his
maladies were imaginary, the truth
being that he had become a hypo
cliondriac, and had deceived all the doc
tors by describing symptoms which had
no existence in fact.
1 In his restless search for novelty, Mr.
! Cutter originated what he called a dual
j system of treatment. In its applica
: tion to his own case this consisted in
; dosing himself, for one ailment while
following a medical prescription for an
other. He had a theory that the doc
, tors failed to give him relief because
they did not make their prescriptions
j sufficiently comprehensive, having an
I eye to only one disorder, while he was
the victim of a number of diseases at
the same time. It was shortly after
t he adoption of this new doctrine that
Mr. Cutter called one day upon Dr. Silex
for a consultation.
The doctor listened with the utmost
professional gravity to the recital of a
long train of distressing symptoms.
"I think your troubles," he said, at
last, "may all be attributed to the liver,
ft needs stirring up."
Mr. Cutter was secretly convinced that
the fault was chiefly in the lungs, but
he dutifully took the prescription
which the doctor handed him, paid the
fee and went to the Bed Dog druggist
to have the medicine compounded.
When the prescription had been filled
he decided that he would take some
glycerin for the benefit of his lungs,
and so he purchased a bottle of that sub
stance from the sympathetic apothe
cary, who never failed to recommend
whatever Mr. Cutter was disposed to
try,
Mr. Cutter was a widower, and the
only other occupant of his isolated
dwelling, on the outskirts of the town
of Kcd Dog, was an aged housekeeper.
Iler chief virtue, in bis eyes, was that
Rhc never meddled with the medicine
closet, whose shelves were filled with a

Desnite the enormous consumption oy

maining, in quantity as well, as in va
riety, would have sufficed for a ship's
crew on s vojaff around the world or
for the supply of county Hospital.
Ills latest scqalaltlons were now
added to this curious collection. And

"Matter? Why, man, a-ou have sat
urated your system with nitroglycerin.
That's what's the matter. Don't jump
likj that! The least. shock maj make
vou tro ofl in a twinklincr. You must
avoid a jar. as you would poison.
Couldn't you see that the acid and the
glycerin would chemically unite and
make von explosive? How much
glycerin have you-taken?'
About two ounces, I thiak," was the
dismayed answer.
"Is it possible? You are positively
dangerous to be at large. You must
practice the utmost caution. Don t
ride on the cars; the least concussion
might be fatal. You must get rubber
soles ptrt on your shoes immediately. Be
careful not to jump, even off a doorstep.
Of course, you must not shoot, or ex
pose j ourself in any way to shocks or
explosions of any kind. Even the snap
ping of a cap might make you vanish
in a second, and there would be noth
ing but a loud report to tell the tale of
your disappearance
"But, doctor," implored the trem
bling patient, "can your science do noth
ing for me? Cannot you get this dread
f ul explosive out of my system?"
'Possibly I might render it less dan
gerous. at least," responded the doctor,
thoughtfully. "It's a case without
precedtnt, but I'll do what I can for
you. The first step will be to change
the nitroglycerin into dynamite. That
you know, is far les3 apt to explode by
concussion. In fact, it is nothing morv

That v ill gradually draw out the nitro-cij-cerm
from your circulation, change
it iuto dynamite, and in the course of a
few weeks you may be safe."
This assurance alleviated the fenrs of
Mr. Cutter to some extent, but he re
paired to the Red Dog druggist in an
an dons frame of mind. The rumbling
of a passing dray filled him with appre
hension, and he made a lor:? detour to
aviod passing a new building whore
the carpenters were still busy withtheir
hammers. His alarm was excited when
the druggist began to pound up some
thing in a mortar, and so his critical
condition was explained to the pharma
cist. Mr. Cutter went home by a devious
route in order that he might not be ex-
vjoscd to anv iar from the nnils of a
blavksmsth shop which he was actus
toiled to pass every day.
On the evening of the same day TV
Silrx attended a mooting of the Kcd Doer
Medical society. It was a private gntji
-riot:', as usual, and sounds of ui.v. ontt d
'm.irity were heard before the nsseni
jlngc dispersed.
Xo one know hov,- the strange condi
tion of Mr. Cutter became known, but
the next day it was the talk of Red Dog

him. He cautioned them against sud
den closing of the doors of the huge safe
that contained the public moneys, and
with his own1 hands he pinned upon the
outer door of the office a placard read
ing: "Do not slam."
As the days went by Mr. Cutter be
came more and more despondent. It
was evident. Dr. Silex assured him, that
the nitroglycerin was as yet imperfect
ly convertedlnto dynamite. He be
gan taking long, and solitary walks
over the hills neanthe town of Bed Dog,
partly to distract lis mind and partly
to escape the dangers incident to Hu
man companionship to a man who was
loaded with nitroglycerin.
One afternoon he was walking1 over
the hill in which the Ground II og Quarts
Mining company? was boring a tunnel.
There can be no doubt about the fact
that Mr. Cutter was seen welkins' over
the brow of the hill just before a blast
was fired in the depths below. It

and shone on that square little sign the
inquiring "boy" came and went. 1
"He wants a full-fledged angel, witn a

youngsters on the sidewalk in front.
The loys .vere shown one by one into
his office; and one by one were told
what ifr was that Mr. Adams wanted.
That was, a trusty, faithful, capable
sul-ckrk. Of course each youngster
was delighted to find out that it was not
merely a boy to run errands, but a gen
wine assistant clerk that was being
sought for. Why the owner of the es
tablishment should be willing to take
a boy instead of one of the many grown
men, who would have been glad of such
.i nhu-c. thev could not understand.
But they could understand that it was
a splendid place for a young fellow just
beginning life, and all were eager to ol
tain it.
Andrew Mathers stayed just one day ;
Prrtr.k Scolley one hour; Matt YVyman
20 minutes, and some of the boys who
applied never got further than the office
door and a three minutes' interview.
What could the matter be? Suppose
we see.
Andrew was a bright, pleasant-faced
voung fellow, and came from a good
family. The boys thought that if any-

"Cood morning, sir," said Mr.
Adams, olite!y. as Andrew entered the
office. And the loy unsvered with his
best bow and with his most courteously
business-like manner. So far so good.
Mr. Adams briefly explained that

little higher, as if lie already saw him - ;

fellow's face fell. That sounded rathei
too mat h like an errand boy's work
But he brightened tip and asked w here
lie should Ix-gin. For an hour or two
he was busy helping the clerks. By and
by Mr. Adams oame into the back part
of the -tore where his new sub-clerk
was engaged in marking a keg.

"You want it put in ordeX" asxea An

a sub-clerk.
"Yes, it needs it decidedly;" and the
merchant passed on. Ho wondered how
Andrew could hold out; he was "the
best of the lot, so fsr," he thought, re-
cretfullv. For the trial was coming.
and by the boy's face it looked rather
dubious.
Andrew explored the back room.
and decided on whst he considered a
most brilliant scheme. Calling the cr-

with his principal, with the minister
and the leader of a nisrht school he
found that he could advance as rapidly
by attending the evening classes, with
" the addition of two studies in which the
principal could still allow him to con
tinue, a3 though he were to remain in
the high school. And he had learned
from the other boys that the subclerk
was to have two hours a day free for
school work; for Mr. Adams knew very
well what was the value of an educa-'
tion. !
v About ten o'clock, on Charley's first

young subclerk was doing up aJittlo i

Nevertheless, Charley "Seterminod

Mr. Adam's eyes danced, 'w hen he looked
in about noon, to see young Winchester

Charley straightened himself with as
dignified an air as was possible under
such circumstances. Ciis sleeves were

apron a large dusting cloth which hap
