His Reputation Was Spoiled.

Doctor—And how do you feel this morning, my poor fellow? Sufferer—Much better in most ways, but I am afraid I won’t mend very fast; I worry too much. Doctor—You have nothing to worry about. You will not lose any of your limbs, and the railroad company con be made to pay heavy damages. Sufferer—l know that; but just think of the humiliation! Doctor —The humiliation ? Sufferer —Yes; I was always considered a man of energy and activitv, but now my reputation is ruined. No pne will want to employ a man who was so lazy as to get run over by an accommodation train.— Philadelphia Call.
