          A gentleman in this city heard of the dangerous illness of little Frank Doolittle and the destitution of the lad’s mother. Without saying anything about it he called at the house, ordered the attendance of one of our best physicians, and otherwise contributed to the comfort of the afflicted family. He will pay the boy’s funeral expenses also. The man is a saloon keeper, but he carries a great heart in his breast, and never allows an opportunity to alleviate distress and suffering escape him unnoticed.
