His face is purple, and , though he breathes, it is with great difiieulty. I went up to see my patient. He had been lifted from the floor, and was lying upon the bed. Sure enough his face was purple, and his breathing labored; but somehow the symptoms did not indicate apjKiplexy. . livery vein in his head and face was filled, and he lay stupid; but still I saw no clear indication of an actual or approaching congestion of the ' ' brain: ' Hadnt he better be Med, docasked the anxious wife. -tor?I dont know that it is necessary, I replied; I think if we lethirn alone it will pass off in the course of a few hours.

A few ounces of blood taken from his arm may give life to the stagnant circulation of the blood in his veins.

When Dr. Solly came we conversed aside fur a few moments, and I gave him my views of the case, and stated w hat I had done and w hy I had done It. We then proceeded to the bedside of the patient. There was still no sign of approaching consciousness. Dont you think his head ought to be shaved and blistered? asked the w ife, anxiously. , ' Doctor Silly thought a moment, and then said: . Yes, by all means. Send fora tiarber; and also a fresh fly blister, four inches by nine. I looked at the face of Doctor .Solly with surprise. It was perfectly grave and earnest. I hinted to him ray doubt of the good that mode of treatment would do; but he spoke confidently of the result, and taid that it would not only cure the disease, but, he believed, take away the predisposition thereto, with which Mr. Harris was affected in a high degree.

Jut then tho eves of Harris opened, ami he looked with surprise from face to face of the anxious group that surrounded tl lied. What is the matter? he at length said. At the same time a strange sensation almut his head, he placed his hand ra1 her heavily thereon. Heavens and earth! He was now fully in his senses. Heavens and earth! what ails my head? For mercys sake, keep quiet, said his wife, the glad tears gushing over her face. .You have been very ill., There, there, now! And she spoke soothingly. Dont say a word, hut lio very still, But my head! Whats the mat-te- r with mv head?. It feels a if scalded. Wheres my hair? Heavens and earth, Sarah, I dont understand this!

Harris shut his eyes and muttered something with an air of Impatience, hut its meaning was not understood. Finding him out of danger, friends and relatives retired, and tho sick man was left alono with his family. Sarah, he said, why in heavens name did you permit the doctors to butcher me in this way ? I am laid up for a week or two, anti all fur nothing. It was to save your 111b, dear. Save Hush! .There, do for heavens sake be quiet. Everything depends upon it With a gesture of impatience Mr. Harris shut his eyes, teeth and hands, and lay ierfectly still for some minutes, then he turned his face to the wall, muttering in a low, jietulant voice: Too bad too bad! too bad! I had not erred In my first and last Impression of Harris disease, neither had Dr. JSoIly, although ho used a very extraordinary mode of treatment Tho facts of the case are these: Harris had a weekness, lie could not taste wine orstrong drink without being tempted into excess.
