How Do Your Swear.

The witness had served in one of
the Indiana regiments and come
home from the wars with both arms
shot off He lost one at Fort Dom
aldson and the other at Lookout
Mountain. When he came forward
to testify the clerk commenced to adj
minister the oath.
"You solemnly swear"
"stopl stopl interrupted the Judge
(newly installcd) with ovorpoworing
dignity. The witness will hold up
his right hand when he is sworn"
"Your Honor, replied the clerk
meekly, the man has no right hand"
"Then let him hold up his left
hand"
"If your Honor will remember, the
witness has no left hand either. He
had the misfortune to lose them both
in battle"
Perhaps the clerk thought by this
last bit of information to bring the
Judge down from his height of dis
pleasure, but he reokoned without
his host,
"Then tell him to hold up hisrigh
leg. A witness cannot be sworn in
this court without holding up some-
thing, Silonccl all of youl This
court will maintain it,"
The witness was sworn on one leg.
While We are wondering over the
telephone, the French are examining
an invention by which photographs
Gun be sent by telegraph. The pro-
coss is not yetexplained, butthe Par
is and Lyons police have been sue
ccsofully using 1t for the detection Of
criminals.

roses;
NO line OF pearls her beamng smile discloses;
NO delicate perfumes around her hover;
And yet / love her!
she rivals not the sun in dazzling brightness;
S4N moi like the fawn with fairy lightness
Her eyes resemble not the stars above her;
And yet love herr
No waving tresses fall in rich profusion;
No classic form, half hidden by Illusion
No brilliant fancy could e'er discover:
And yet love her!
For she is truly sensible and good;
And all the charms that make true womanhood
Unite in her; and she loves me moreover;
And so love her!
Besides that she's my mother.
