DEATH DUE TO IMAGINATION Dr. Mary Walker Cites an Instance— Says Georgia Banker Might Hava Been Saved. I deem It a cruel thing to have Insisted that “Mr. Walker must die of poison” when ho had lived so long. Dr. Mary Walker writes to the Washington Post. Had he boon a patient of mine I i should have declared that he could not die, and proceeded with, ‘saving ■ methods. When my father was a medical student the following story ’ was told to him: A largo, stout fellow was awaiting his day to be hanged for murder. ' Some doctors persuaded the warden of the prison to allow an experiment, promising not to hurt the man, pro- ; vided the criminal consented. The doctors told him that they “could bleed him to death, and spare bls relatives the ignominy of his being hanged,” and he readily consented to die that way. He was placed upon a table, a tin pan put on the floor at his feet, and ! another placed high above It with a ; puncture to let the water out in drops. The man’s eyes were covered and his body fastened to the table and a ; blunt instrument used to press hard i against his foot. Then the water i falling in big drops into the pan made the noise that convinced the man that he was being bled. I The doctors talked low about the quantity of blood he might have, and I occasionally felt his pulse, and in a ; whisper stated he would be dead in a few minutes longer, and he did die without one drop of blood having i been taken. Many peonle have died because of I having been told that they must die, when If they had been told that they would not die they would have recovered. WHEN RICHARD BACKED AWAY Turn in the Conversation Evidently Was Not to the Liking of the Enamored Swain. “I’ve bought the ring, dear,” exclaimed Dick as his fingers moved toward I his vest pocket. “Well, Richard, before we become formally engaged will you answer me a few questions?” “Sure, sweetheart.” "First, you will always love me?” “You bet I will.” “And we will have a dear little bungalow?" “Exactly.” “One servant?” “Yes.” “You will let me buy gowns and hats whenever I need them?” “Sure." “Nor will you quarrel about my spending money?” “Indeed no." “You won’t smoke in the house?” “Never.” “Yon will always kiss me when you leave?” “Certainly.” “And I can always have the last j word?’’ "You will have that anyway.” “You won’t care if I sleep late in the morning?” “No.” “And you will let mother be with us for the first three months to ad- > vise me?” “Dear,” exclaimed Dick, suddenly, “I forgot and left that ring in my j room. I must get it at once.” And he is still trying to find it.' Pat Meant Well. An Irishman made his way to a | county jail and asked to be allowed to j see the governor. On being ushered into that functionary’s presence he begged for the favor of an interview j with a prisoner who was to suffer the I extreme penalty of the law in the I course of the morning. “No, my man,” said the governor, on being appealed to, “you cannot see the prisoner. He is to be executed in half an hour’s time, and it is not allowed j for visitors to see a prisoner on the day of execution. But what might bo ; your business with him?” "Shure, sorr,” answered Pat, “it's his birthday, and I was aftlier wishing him , many happy returns av the day.” His Little Bill. A moving picture mechanic was sent I to New York from Chicago two weeks i ago to do some work for a film coni corn. The mechanic was glad to get a j chance to visit the east, and at the close of his trip of business and pleas- ( ure, he turned in his expense account to the New York manager of the picture proposition. It called for $l5O. The manager was amazed. “All right, is It?” asked the mechanic. “All right?” replied the manager. “It’s a masterpiece. How did you spend all this money In tw-o weeks?” “Oh, well,” said the mechanic, who | was visibly provoked, “if it's too high, I make it $15." Their Reason. Miss Elsie De Wolfe was defending I in New York the actions of the nilli- : tant English suffragettes. “If the men treated us over here,” said Miss De Wolfe, “as they are treating the suffragettes in England, we'd adopt militancy, too.” “But,” said a banker, "look at theEnglish suffragettes’ latest move. It’s) rhomniable. They're poisoning dogs. To poison a dog—is there any rhymai ■ or reason in that?” Miss De Wolfe laughed. “I suppose the English suffragettes," l • she said, “are poisoning dogs because the dog is the friend of man.” I
