RANDOM THINGS AND FLINGS
'Urrah for the Heagles!
In a hallway. There has been a time when folk liked "the man." There was a manlljiess and dash about him when he was a boy that won friends for him. In college he was one of the most popular of students, both with bis mates and the faculty.
He was graduated with honors. Everybody predicted success for him, stones to get a farther look,
"because he was gifted in his chosen profession, medicine, and because of the magnetism that would draw people to him. "The man" went into partnership with his father. The clientele which Intrusted itself to the older man placed equal confidence in the younger. The father died. The younger doctor was married and clldren came. His practice grew. There were many homes in which he was known and where, in time of sickness, the tall, straight, frock-coated figure that stepped from the "doctor's buggy" and came swiftly up the walk brought hope and courage.' He never liked a stuffy sickroom. He believed in letting the sunlight in. His indulgent "Tut, tut!" with which he met the family's fears, the fearless calm with which he drew a chair to the bedside of the sufferer, the cool, firm pressure of thumb and finger on the wrist as he took the pulse these kindled hope anew. He never shirked a call. He would get out of bed at mid-night to drive through storm in the dark, any number of miles, to usher a child into the world, to grapple with accident and disease, and to make easier the departure tf those he could not save who now must take the last, long Journey. He gave to that community the best that was in him. Brain, skill, labor, Jove he gave them all. There began to be whispering about "the man." People knew he was
acting strangely; some said he drank; but nobody seemed to know Just what
was the matter. His practice was falling off. And one dayv It became known that he was a "dope fiend," and then his practice ended.
The family had to move from that neighborhood to one where living
.was cheaper.
The friends of "the man" and his wife pitied her. Some of them wondered
What she would do. They wondered what would become of her and the children And then they forget all about "the man." '; And the woman and the children tried to forget about him, too.
