Ann Arbor's Girl, M. D's

Sitting at u lunch table yesterday itflcr noon in a Fort Street restaurant a man wlio ealled for a píate of liash was compelled to 1 isten to the followingantument: "Vee, they've gone and done It, I knew thcv woulii," said a flery-lookliijf middle¦ged man. "What's tliat?" asked his calmer fiïend. "Why, I see by the Tribune tliat tliere were about a dozen female doctors at Aun Arbor." 'I see no cause for alarm In tliat." "I suppoge not; you wouldn't sec any dangpr if a house was falling on you." "Well, expfcln yourself. I think a wonian wonld make a better doctor than a man." "That's wbere you make the greatest mistake of your life. Let me give yon a few pointers. In tlie first place those girls havt; gut to lócate somewhere, and maybe one of tlieui will get right in the same square as mv house. Well, some niglit ril come home with the menagerie, and Jane will sead for a doctor. Slie always does, and then if one of those 'female medies' would come wouldn't there be a circus? Yes, in short order. Supposing I had a chili. If one of those girls cante fooling around me, and fueling my pulse, don't you suppose I'd have a fever in about a minute? Then she'd give ine medicine for that when I had a chili and of course I'd lake it when the'd say 'please take it.' I btlieve I'd be in my grave In a week, and of COUrM I'd ask lier to cali again. '"I teil you these female doctors will never do. Supposin' I had palpitation of the heart, umi one of those sweet girl gradéate would come in to look at me. Well, tlie tirst thing she'd do atter smiling at me would be to plunip her pretty little white head down unto my nlght shirt, aml rnniim'iice to couut the beats of my heart. Now, you kuow just as well as I do tliat if a man's got a heart at all it's goin' to get la about forty extra beats a minute wliilt; slie's looking up ininto your eyes and oounting slowly and all the time ht;r hair getting cauglit in your buttons. Then she'M look serious and say your heart is doing doublé work and you are not long for tliis eai'th, and leave some medk-ine that's twice as strong as it ouglit to bc, and what can you do? I teil you those girl doctors will never do. They'll kill oft' half the men in town in a year. When a man wants a girl doctor at all ltl when he's well. It is a sbame to have them work for a diploma and then not get anything to do." "Oh, they'll get enough to do, don't worry." saiti the other man. "Petey, you know as well as I do that no woman will have a girl doctor when she can get a man, and do you tuppOM she'd let some chit of a fashionably dressed girl teil her hat t,o give the baby when she never had any of her own ? No, slr; yon can bet not. A girl expeots to get marrled some time, hut who would want a doctor forhlswife? No man in bis senses. When she didn't have any other patients, and she wouldn't she practice ou him. TeP hini to stmigliten lip bis cebro spin.il column and all that. Xü man eould stand it to have bis wife ealled U seven nights of the week to go out and viait patients aml stay all night. No, sir.
