Neander's "One Work."
Doctors, when they send away a
busy man for several weeks of rest,
do not consider that to one accustomed
to work an enforced rest Is both Irrl
tatlng and depressing.
N'candcr, the famous church histo
rian, had promised his physician on be
ing ordered to Carlsbad to drink Its
famous waters that he would take no
books with him except one work, which
the doctor with reluctance allowed.
On the morning of the historian's de
parture Hie doctor, wishing to say
goodbjV to his patient, called at his
door and" saw a cart laden with heavy
folios.
"But, dent professor," mild tho phy
sician, with the emphasis of displeas
ure, "you promised mo to take no
books with you."
"Yes, doctor," replied the childlike
professor, "but you allowed me ono
work, so I thought I might take the fa
thers with me to Carlsbad."
The "one work" included three or
four score volumes.
