a Singular Dofenco.

A lawsuit once settled some strikingly
original features. Among other articles, a
lady pun chased coffee pot. But neither
she nor her maid could make good coffee
from it, and 1t was returned to. The dealer.
Hc refused to receive it. and the husband
sued him. In court the defendant managed
his own case. The manner of procedure
was very unique, to say the least. The
dealer took the coffee pot and liberal sup
ply of coffee, sugar and cream, gasoline
stove and coffee mill into the court-r room.
The coffee was ground In the presence Of
the jury, the gasoline lit in the stove, water
and coffee were put III tho pot, and allowed
to boil over the gasoline blaze. At length
tho c6ncoction was pronounced complete,
properly mixed with sugar and cream, and
passed to the Jurors and the justice. What
jury could withstand such sweet blandish-
ments3 They called for more, and as there
was plenty and to spare, their request was
granted. At length the jury retired for
consultation, and on returning, rendered a
verdict for the man who made the coffee.
1t generally pays TO appeal to the appetite

SuperStitions About Rabbits,

In nearly all the languages the syllable
,ca is the prefix OF the Indian name for
rabbit, while the word for white is ,oab or
,oqp, indiffcrcntly, A writer mentioned
many examples, as wap-mc-me, "white
pigeon" The Illinois aamc wabos was pro-
badly applied 70 the Lcpus Amcricanus,
whose winter coat is white, and hence the
connection. The root-word Tab, however,
forms pOrion of words of seemingly to-
tally different meaning, but Judge Ucndcr-
son thought key was to be found to the
whole diversity. White is an emblem of
purity and sacred color, and with it is
associated The idea of light, which sof such
ltructifying power in the earth, and calls
forth 50 many beauties. With it Is also
associated the idea of heaven and angels of
goodness. Among the Chcrokccs, Leni-
Lenapc, and other tribes white was an en-
blcm ofpcace, friendship prosperity, and
holiness; and the Iroquois sacrificed
white. dogs TO the Great Spirit, and conscc-
rated TO Him all other albino animals.
Among the Apaches of the West white
birds were regarded rs possessing souls Of
divine origin, and to the Plains Indians the
white buffalo is q sacred object, like the
white elephant of Siam; while some of the
California tribes consider white w0lf-skin
badge of chieftainship. This was carried,
to great extent, III the robes of tho High
Priest of the Chcrokccs, and they all wrap
ped their dead in pure white decr-slxin.
| Various Eastern tribes sent white wainpum,
| feathers, and Other objects as symbols Of
peace, jnst as red was a sign Of war; and
| they had 'impcrial standards" of feathers
! from the white tail of the bald-eagc
Among the Sothern Indians the white laurel
was the tree of peace, and they spoke of it
as spreading its branches over the white
ground. Light or white being sacred,
therefore tits easy to understand why white
animals should be also regarded So The
third brother of the Great Spirit, Wabosso,
who fled to the north as soon as lc saw the
light, and who changed into white rab-
bit, under that form became canonzed.
The pame of the great central Deity Him
self in many languages has the root
"whitc" in 1t, as also the word for heaven,
and tho word for sorccory or tmcdicinc.''
The sacred regard which; It was knU yn was
I paid to the serpent, also, Is shown In the

the earliest are of Plus H., the others of
Innocent VIII, Alexander VI, Julius H.,
Leo X, Iladrian W., Clement VII, and
Paul III. Nearly onc-third belongs to
Clement VII, a few coins to the Viscoun-
tbs of Milan and the Wladslaws of Hungary.
l am sure some were engraved by artists
worthy to vic with lDonatello or Benzenuto;
they arc of exquisite beauty. The next
day Mgr Casali, the owner, was offered
36, 800 francs for the group. OF course he
refused. The treasure was not concealed
carefully in one single spot; the pieces lay
