Excerpt from Mr. Dooley's OpinionsNO wan iver lost a leg, ' she says. Well, 't is sthrange, ' says th' wife. He 's mislaid it, thin, ' she says, fr he has n't got it, ' she says. He on'y thinks he's lost it, ' says th' Christyna Scientist. Lave him think it on again, ' she says. Lave him raymimber, ' she says, they'se no such thing in th' wurrnld, ' she says, as pain an' injury, ' she says. Lave him to put his mind hard to it, ' she says, an' I 'll put mine, ' she says, an' we 'll all put our minds to it, an' 't will be all r-right, ' she says. SO she thinks an' th' wife thinks an' ye think th' best ye know how, an' afther awhile a leg comes peepin' out with a complete set iv tootsies, an' be th' time th' las' thought is expinded, ye have a set iv as well-matched gambs as ye iver wore to a picnic. But ye must n't stop thinkin' or ye'er wife or th' Christyan Scientist. If wan iv ye laves go th' rope, th' leg '11 get discouraged an' quit growin'. Manny a man 's sprouted a limb on'y to have it stop between tb' ankle an' th' shin because th' Christyan Scientist was called away to see what ailed th' baby. Sure, 't is all foolishness, said Mr. Hennessy.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
