Dr. Finch enjoys a state wide reputation, among the profession and the Public of Indiana, where for more than Forty Years he has devoted his entire time to the Study, Treatment and Cure of Chronic Diseases.

HUMOHOFniEGREEKS Wit That Helped the Ancients Drive Dull Care Away. SOME FIFTH CENTURY JOKES The Absentminded Profeeeor Was a Prolific Source of Merriment to the Jeetere of Thoee Daye—The Source of Many Modern Jokes. The maxim that there Is nothing eew under the sun applies, it would •eem. more truly to joke" and witti clams than to anything else. The chief differences between tiie Jests of one generation nnd that of another lie mainly in their form. The kernel is practically the same. Nevertheless it ta Interesting to exhume some of these ancient Jokes nnd to recognize in them tha ancestors of the things at which are laugh today In the pages of our humorous publications. Some humorous writers dearly love to make fun of the absentminded, unpractical university professor, who outside of bis own subject lets his wits wander nnd Is very slow to grasp anything In ordinary life. Such Jokes as these were cracked centuries ago by the students and graduates of the great universities in ancient Greece, for It is a mistake to suppose that what we now call “college life” was unknown to the ancients. As a matter of fact, the student at the University of Athens or at the University of Alexandria was very much the same sort of mortal as Is the student today, and his professors were not so very different A witty Greer named Hlerocles, a graduate of Alexandria, collected some time in the fifth ceutury a volume of jests which were current among the students with regard to the woolgathering type of professor. A number of them are translated here as being of Considerable interest In the history of humor and especially of college humor: A professor, wishing to swim, was nearly drowned, whereupon he swore that he would never touch water again until he hnd learned how to swim. Os twin brothers, one died. A professor thereupon, meeting the survivor, asked. “Is it you that died or your brother?” A professor, learning that a raven would live for more than 200 years, bought one to test the matter. A professor, wishing to cross a river, went on board the boat on horseback. When some one asked the reason he answered that he wanted to get over in a hurry.

A professor, looking out of the window of a house which he had bought asked the passersby whether the house was becoming to him. A professor, meeting another pro> fessor, said, “I heard you were dead.’ “And yet.” replied the ether, "you see that I am still alive.” “Well,” said the first in perplexity, "I don’t know what to believe, for the man who told me about It is a much more truthful man than you!” A professor, in danger of being shipwrecked, called for his tablets that he might make his will. Seeing thereupon his slaves lamenting their fate, he eaid. “Do not grieve, for I am going to set you free.” A professor dreamed that he had trodden on a nail and that the wound pained him. On waking he bound up his foot Another professor, having learned the cause, remarked. “It served you right, for why do you sleep without sandals?” A professor, meeting a doctor, hid himself behind a wall. Some one asking the cause, he answered. “I have not been sick for so long a time 1 am ashamed to come into the sight of a physician.” A professor, wishing to teach his horse to be a small enter, gave him no food at all. At length, the horse having starved to death, the professor exclaimed, “I have suffered a great loss, for just as he had learned not to eat he died!” A professor, visiting a sick person, inquired about his health. The invalid, however, was not able to reply. There upon the professor, being angry and scolding the man. said, “I hope that I Shall be sick some of these days, and then when you come to ask how I am 1 will not answer.” A professor sealed up a vessel of wine which he had bought His servant having made a bole in the vessel beneath and drawn off some of the Wine, the professor was astonished to see the contents diminished while the seals remained unbroken. A neighbor havleg told him to look whether it had not been taken out from below, he replied, “Why, you fool, it's the upper part of the wine and not the lower that is missing!” A professor, a bald man and a barber traveling together agreed to keep watch in turn four hours, each while the others slept. The barber’s turn came first. He quietly shaved the head of the sleeping professor and when the time elapsed awoke him. The latter, scratching his head as he •got up and finding it bare, cried out: “What a rascal that barber is! He’s waked the bald man Instead of me!”— Exchange.

Legal Advice. “Prisoner," said the justice, “you are charged with having struck the defendant” “Yes, judge; 1 poked him, but he exiled me a liar.” “That's no excuse." "Well, judge, it was my first experience. What do you do in sueh eases?* —Judge's Library.
