Show Cheering Him Up. A professional boxer was badly beaten beat-en in a sparring match and carried tm his bed in an exhausted and melancholy melan-choly condition. "I wish you'd say something t 'cheer him up, doctor," pleaded the defeated de-feated warrior's wife. "He's gettin low in his miiid, and when he's Iik that you've no idea how hard it is to wait on him. He's worse than a leac with a toothache." "What can I say that will pleasw t him most?" asked the doctor. "You might just tell him in an off hand way that the man as licked him is mighty bad in the horspital, ami that they may have to hold a postmortem post-mortem on him any minute now," was the solemn suggestion. |
