sister, Mrs. Franklin Haven on Bea- 
con street, Boston a fortnight ago, 
will not be able to walk for two

scarred as he had the presence of 
mind to wrap his head in a wet 
towel. 
PROGRESSIVE SCIENCE. 
[From the Philadelphia Ledger. | 
Doctor — What? ‘Troubled with 
sleeplessness? Eat something before 
going to bed. 
Patient—Why, doctor, you once 
told me never to eat anything before 
going to bed. 
" Doctor (with dignity) — Pooh, 
pooh! That was last January. Science 
has made enormous strides since 
then.
