WHY HE DID NOT 0.0 TO THId HOSPITAL.

.■IE COULD LEAL TIHIOUGH, THE AIK i —“ * ■JIv object of writing is two-fold :to cx;u'css my gratitude for a great benefit and to ell a short story which cannot fai l to inteicsl he feelings of many others, It is all about uyself. but 1 have remarked that when a nun veils the honest truth about hnnself he :s all the more likely to be of use to his fellow creatures. To begin, then, you must know how L had long been more or less subI icct to attacks of bronchitis, a complaint that I you arc aware is very common and Iroubic--1 -ome in Great, llrilain in cerium seasons of die year, dome months ;e_o I had a. very ' severe turn of it. worse. 1 think, than 1 ever sad before. It was probably brought on by •nv catching cold, as we are all apt to do wiion we least expect it- Meeks past by, uui luv trouble proved to be very obstinate, ft would not yield to uiehicine. and as I also began to have violent racking pa ns in m\ ■ dmiis ami hack, I became greatly alarmed. I could neither cat nor sleep. If I had been a feeble, sickly man, I should have thought less strangely of it ; but as, on the contrary L was hearty" and robust, I feared some new and terrible thing had got hold of me. which might make my strength of no avail against it ° 1 say. that was the way I thought. ‘.Presently I could not even lie down for ihc [lain was ail over my body. I asried ini doctor what he thought of my condition, and he frankly said Thomas, you must go to die Hospital ; it may be your only chance for life, Liu I didn’t want to go the hospital. Who does, when he flunks he can possibly got along without doing it lam a labouring man?with a largo family, depending on me ibr Mipport. and I might almost as well he in inv grave as to he laid on my back m a hosI [li'ial unable to lift a hand for months, or I God on!v knows how long.
