If you play iff 'ei ef . . . . a stiff game of poker you can dispense with the indulgent father. Having paid the mild forty-dollar ante, you are allowed to draw live cards. lfamiliarize yourself with the 9000000 fact, that these cards are not certificates of work done, but must be exchanged, etc., and then have a folding-bed put up near the black- board at the college entrance. Go to bed and watch the black-board for notices. For example: If you hold ticket for Class 5, in the Practical Course in Bunionologyf' and the notice reads: CLASS 5, BuNioNoi.oc:.v, AT 2 P. M. l STALENWIN. i L s . as i you can go out and read the newspaper until a quarter before three, when it is well to take your bunionoscope and goto the class-room. It is highly improbable that the instructor will be there that early, but if he is, perspire freely, puff hard, and tell him you came over as rapidly as possible from the class in the Practical Course in Superfluous lflairologyf' Then after letting the instructor see you lookithrough the bunionoscope a couple of times, get some friend to answer for you at roll-call and go and play billiards. The chief benefits of the Practical Courses are: Q11 The ready excuse they give for absence from the regular and impractical coursesg and fzij The efficient explanation to your father as to the speedy disappearance of the last draft. They are also a beautiful charity to the corporation of Rush Medical College. TWELVE. 157
