 attention to his feelings, instead of replying, merely drew his fist, and taking the opera tor on the side of the head, very nearly knocked him down. Then initiating the language of the student, he asked in turn, Does that hurt1'

 Dody now raised his fist, and was about making rejOindsr in similar terms but suddenly recollecting himself, he forbore to strike, saying it was his business to cure and not to kill :; and that if the paticnt would allow him to apply the instrument once more, the tooth should come out pret- ty darn quick.

 The patient acquiesced; but swore if he stopped again to ask whether it hurt, he would break his good-for- nothing numskull for him..

 Il meant it all in civil way returned the student, and had no idea you'd be af- fronted about it.. But I'll do the job to your liking now: I'll make the tooth hop like parched pea if don't, then darn me ? With that he applied the instrument, and giving it sudden and forcible wrench, out came two teeth. 'There,' said he, wasn't that done slick

 'Oh! you've pulled my head ofr!' ex- lclaimed the man, springing upon his feet. applying lis hand to his jaw, grooming, roaring, and raving like mad bull which had just shaken mastiff from his nose.

 Well, you needn't be so mad about it, returned the student coolly, Il shan't charge you for more than one.'

 Shan't charge! No, guess you won't. Il wouldn't had it pulled, that sound tooth, for bright silver dollar. It's enough to lose rotten one.'

 It's no loss to lose a rotten tooth though, replied the student, and as for the sound one, that would have been rotten sometime, if I hadn't pulled it. think it best to make business of i. when you're about it, and have good number pulled at once.-- They come cheaper in that way.' \ You hadn't ought to ax any thing for pulling either of these, seeing you've made such a fist of it.

 Well, told you shouldn't charge you for more than one.'

 m be darned if ever pay that

 'It's nc. concern of mine, returned the student. .tyou may settle it with Doctor Whistlswind.' :, The paGeni again bound up his jaws with the handkerchief; put the two extracted teeth in his pocket, to keep as a memorial of his suffsrings and bidding the student good day, left the shop.
