Every trifle made her uneasy, and the doctor was called immediately. imme-diately. The doctor was a skillful man. and consequently had a large practice. It was very disagreeable to him to be so often called away from his other cases for nothing, and he resolved to take an opportunity of letting the lady see this. One day the lady observed a red spot on her hand, and at once sent for the doctor. He came, looked at her hand, and said: "You did well to send for me early." The lady looked alarmed and asked: "Is it dangerous, then?" "Certainly not," replied the doctor. "To-morrow the' spot would have disappeared, dis-appeared, and I should have lost my fee for this visit." |
