A very curious story is told in various books on Loudon's history of the way in which the famous Guy's Hospital came into being. Guy, the founder, was a bookseller, who kept a shop at the junction of Lombard Street and Corahill.""*"""Here he sold Bibles printed at Oxford and various educational and theological works. He speculated shrewdly, and is said to have been one of the few men who bought and sold South Sea stock at the right, time. The tale goes that he was so' thrifty that he dined on his shop counter with a newspaper for a tablecloth.' He fell in love with his servant maid, and, under the influence of the tender passion, actually ordered that the pavement in front of his shop : should be repaired. While he was out the girl told the ivorSTueii 10 repair a portion beyond the limit Guy had fixed, .saying. "Tell him I bade you: ho won'i mind.'" But Guy did mind. He was wild. He broke oil" the engagement. r< nounc.ed the idea of marriage, and took to founding hospifaTs and almshouses. He died at the ago of cvglitv. after endowing his great hospital with £200,000. JN'o good housewife can afford to be without. SHABLAND'S Baking Powder—the most, economical compound on the market. 2
