"Young man," said the professor, "your lungs
are badly affected, and I vmii only dealing frankly
with you when I say, that iu my opinion you arc
not long for this world !" .
Miller's heart sank within him as he heard
his doom. He had the most implicit confidence
in the professor; and, ss he thought of his wife
and child, he felt very much as if for the future
the world would be a blank to him.
"Did you ever di ink whisky?" inquired the
professor, as ho paced the room. -- -
" Never, except upon one, or perhaps two oe
carions," said Miller.
"You can keep yourself alite two years prob
ably throe by tho moderate use of whisky. It
is a dangerous prescription, but in giving it to
you I hive reason to believe that you will not let it
obtain the mastery over you Get the best whisky I
you can buy, and drink a pint of it a day."
Poor Miller, ready to grasp at the nearest shad
ow of relief went to the liquor store, and pur
chased a demijohn of Bourbon whisky, and com
menced taking doses of itst intervals throughout
the day.

From his house' he went direct to the machine
shop, and had his invention takeu to the ferry,
boat, and bad it safely landed and put up ready to
operate at tho appointed hour. He knew noth
ing of the advertisement in the papers, and was
therefore a littlo surprised to see upwards of a
hundred persons congregated in the yard. He
did not like it, for in case of failure tho mortifi

soled himself with the belief that in case of suc

to realize one thousand dollars lor Ins right in

figure he held it.
