How She Got Hurt

She entered the doctor’s office, truly a sorry spectacle. Her right eye was bandaged, a bruise marred her cheek and her left arm was supported by a sling. "Ah, good morning, Mrs. Brewster., An accident I see?" said the doctor sympathetically. “I am sorry, indeed. How did it happen^-—i "Well, you see, sir, It was like this. I was a-goin’ 'ome th’ other evenin’, an’ it was very dark on our stair, an' I thought I’d reached me own door, but when I knocked it wasn’t, an’ the gentleman what opened the door thought I was his wife.” —Everybody’s Magazine.
