Playing in Hard Luck.

Brown—You don’t look very happy, Dumley. Dumley —I’ve just lost*s2 on a bet. Brown—That’s bad. Dumley—Yes. I had an awful attack of rheumatism this morning and that young squirt of a doctor, Tipsalve, bet me $2 he could cure it before night, and (bitterly) I ll be hanged if he didn’t win the money.— New York Sun.
