When it comes right down to a case of being a bad boy tbe grip has every other disease slapped to a I had the grip some weeks ago and ever since my system has felt like eight cents worth of eheese The medicine shaips tell us that the grip is caused by a little germ which emigrated to this country originally from Russia. If that's the case I'm glad the Japs put the boots to the czar I wish they would go after him again and kick his crown off. Ill bet even money that the father of the first grip germ must have been a bombshell and his mother was some relation to one of Kuropatkln's retreats. Its dollars to pretzels that the grip germ is the busiest idea that was ever chased by a doctor. Nobody knows just how or when the grip germs break into the system, but once they get a foothold in the epiglottis nothing can reraoce them except inward applications of dynamite. The grip germ hates the Mea of race suicide. From one small germ there will arise and go forth a family the size of which was never dreamed of In the philosophy of our wise and busy president. I dont know just exactly how they happened to warm wise to me, but a newly married couple of grip germs took a notion to build a nest somewhere on the outskirts of my solar plexus, and two hours later they had about 233 children attending the public school in my medusa oblongata; and every time school would let out for recess I would go up in the air and hit the ceiling with my topknot. Before the next morning came all these grip children had graduated from school and after tearing down the schoolhouse the whole bunch had married and had large families of their own, and all hands were out paddling their canoes on my alimentary canal. By nine oclock that morning there 'must hare been 85,000,000 grip germs revolvers all armed with trying to shoot their initials over the walls of my interior department. It was fierce! When the dpctor arrived on the scene I was carrying enough concealed weapons to exterminate the entire Japanese army. Im up to one thing and that is that the Russians couldnt beat the Japs because all the national energy and vitality emigrated from St. Petersburg and came over here with the first grip germs. If the czar of all the Russians had been a wise little father he would have encouraged the grip germs to remain loyal to their native land and then he eould have sent them out to Manchuria to bite the ramparts out of Gen. Oyama Instead of chasing Inoffensive American citizens into the drug stores. Well, anyway, the medicine mixer blew in, threw his saws behind the sofa, put his dip net on the mantelpiece and took a fall out of my pulse. Ah! he said, after he had noted that my tongue looked like a currycomb. "The same to you, doc, I said. "Ah! he said, looking hard at the n. self-loadi- wall. there no Say, doc! I whispered; use to cut off my leg because the germs will hide in my elbow." Do you feel shooting pains in the "Bo the joints feel sore and pinch. he said. "Right!

"Right - again, I 55 nr well-sprun- g g "Do you feel a spasmodic fluttering in the concertina?

Thats the idea, doc. When you lie on your right side do you have an impulse to turn over on your left side, and when you turn over on your left side do you feel an impulse to jump out of bed and throw stones at a policeman? There isnt anything you can mention, doc, that I havent got! Ah! said the doctor; then that settles It Tell me the truth, doctor! I groaned; what is it, bubonic plague? You have something worse you have the grip, he whispered, gently. You see I tried hard to mention some symptom which you didnt have, but you had them all, and the grip is the only disease in the world which makes a specialty of having every symptom known to medical jurisprudence. Then the doctor got busy with the pencil gag and left me enough prescriptions to keep the druggist in pocket money throughout the summer. Later my wife came in and asked me how I felt, and when I began to discourse amiably about undertakers she put up a howl that brought the rest of the family around the bedside on a hurry call. When I told them I had the grip each and every member of the household from Uncle Peter down to the cook began to suggest remedies, and if I had taken half they suggested they could have sold me to a Junk dealer and got good money. That evening our next-doneighbor. Bud Taylor, came lr. and advised me to take quinine and whisky every time I felt a shooting pain. I took his advice, but at the end of the first hour the score was 98 to 37 in favor of the shooting pains, and the whisky had such an effect on the quinine that it made the germs jealous, so between them they cooked np a little black man who advised me to chase Bud out sf the house, which I did by throwing medicine bottles at him. That night the whisky and quinine jeld a directors meeting with the germs and then they wound up with a sort of Mardi Gras parade through my system. 1 was the goat! When daylight broke X was a total wreck, and I swore that the next person that said whisky and quinine to me would get all his. After breakfast another Mend ' of nurs.
