OLD FRIENDS.
A young medical student came face to face with a dear, kind, fatherly-looking gentleman, with whiie hair and of highly lespectablc appearance. They both stood transfixed. The same idea flashed across both of them. "Your face is familiar—very familiar; but I can't remember where we have met so often." However, the friendly impulse was carried out. They shook hands warmly, partook of a friendly glass and departed, still ignorant ol' each other's name aud occupation. But the young man was resolved to unravel the problem, and he seized a waiter and said to him : "Tell me, waiter, who is that distinguished looking stranger with the long white hair?" Aud the waiter whispered lowly: "Please, sir, that's the pawnbroker."
