thut one Oouelle, a Jester ut the court T)
of the Duke of Ferrara, Insisted once ,lQr
upon a time that the trade which had maj
the uiost followers was that of doctor.
To prove his assertion he left his home
one morning to go to the palace with '
his nightcap on aud his Jaws wrapped
up. The first person he met stopped
him with the question, "What Is the ^
matter with you. Gonelle?" "A terrible
toothache." "Oh. Is that all? I'll tell
you what wlJl cure It." And every per
sou be met had some advice to give *.
him.
When the Jester reached the duke's J*""
chamber, the atime question and an 8
ewer were repeated. "Ah." Bald the
prince, "I know of something thut will 11 '
take the pain right away." Coneile UJK
