Cobbler Turned Doctor.
A eoboler unable to mane a living
oy his trade, rendered desperate by
poverty, began to practice medicine
in a town In which he was not known.
Ho sold a drug, protending that it was
an antidote to ail poisons, and oo
talned a great name for himself by
long winded puffs and advrsrttsements.
Ii? happened to fall sick himself of a
serious illness, on which tho governor
of the town determined to test his
skill. For this purpose he called for
a cup and while filling it with water,
pretended to mix poison with the cobbler's
antidote, and commanded him
to drink It, on the promise of a reward.
The cobbler, under the fear of
death, confessed that he had no knowledge
of medicine, and was only mane
famous by tne stupid clamors of the
crowd. The governor calleo a public
assembly, and thus addressed the cltW
7.ens: "Of what folly have you been
guilty? You have not hesitated to
entrust your heads to a man, whom
no one would employ to make even
the shoes tor their feet."?From
Aesop's Fables.
