A Fearful Warning.

Once upon time mot very long ago.
a certain man got mad at the editor and
stopped his paper. The next week he
sold all his corn at four cents below the
market price; then his property was sold
for taxes because he didn't read The
Sheriff sales; he was arrested and fined
IS for going hunting on Sunday, simply
because he didn't know it was Sunday,
and he paid $4,000 for a lot of forged notes
that had been advertised two weeks and
the public cautioned not to negotiate
them. He then paid a big Tishman,
with a foot like forge-hammer, to kick
him all the way to the newspaper Office.
where he paid Il four years subscriptions
in advance, and made the editor sign IN
agreement to knock him down and rob
him, if he ever ordered his paper stopped
again. Such is life without newspaper.

MRS. SMITHS PEDLER'S TRAMP.

Christmas was a day Of rejoicing in
the Smith family. The good lady of the
house had just succeeded in periecting
an invention which is ultimately destined
to revolutionize the great branches of i'll
dustry known by the term . itinerant,
and to deprive hosts Of men of a lucra-
tive employment. The domicile of the
Smiths is located on Mission street, just
between Woodward's Gardens and the
city front. 1t may be recognized by the
front yard and the very peculiar canvas
apparatus which is attached to the fence.
This piece of canvas stretches from the
top of the fence to a pair of poles firmly
fastened to the sidewalk below. and forms
an inclined plane, reaching nearly to the
ground. which bears close resemblance
to the netting used in gymnasi,ims and
circuseS as safe receptacle for falling
acrobats. This canvas arrangement is
only 4 portion of the great invention al
luded to: the principal part of which is
located htitatl tic N'oiSiSp. L VI
several years past Mrs. Smith, in com-
mon with her sister housewives through
out the city, has been harrasscd by the
visits of pedlers. sewing machine agents,
medical canvaSscrs, vegetable vendors,
travelling tin smiths, insurance solicitors
and Il host of the other gentry who an

How Not to Sleep.

In work on "Sleep and Sleeple>>-
ness" J. Mortimer Granville speaks OF
the disadvantages of sleeping on the back.
g In weakly states Of the heart and blood
vessels. and in certain morbid states OF
the brain, the blood gravitates to the
back of the head, and produces trouble
some dreams" In this position the nerve
centers of the spinal cord are also apt to
become congested with blood and over
heated, disadvantage even to those i'll
health. but especially unfavorable for
those pre-disposed to that chronic con
Sestion of the spinal centers, one symp-
tom of which is weakness, lamencSS.
soreness, or aching abont the small Of
the back. 1t is better to lie upon the
right side than left, because in this posi-
ton the food gravitates more easily ont
of the stomach into the intestines and
the weight Of the liver, Il pretty large
and heavy organ, does not rest upon the
other internal organs. Mr.. Granville
thinks some people are apt to sleep with
one arm above the head because it makes
free circulation in the neck and upper
cxtremities, and respiration is made easy,
but he believes it is apt to cause head
ache, cramps, and dreams. There is one
good reason why this last position should
be avoided. If the arm gets beneath the
head, important nerves may be pressed
upon and temporary paralysis result
Such cases are by no means rare, and the
paralysis may continue several weeks.

that it may not be necessary to have to
| travel long distances, in order to make
applications to him between terms, if he
happens TO reside in another county. A
resident judge could hear great many
cases for instance-between terms. Other
cases not requiring jury could be tried
at the intermediate terms-though why
they shouldn't be now. we cannot see.
and in great many other ways the jury
terms could be much shortened and the
expenses Of courts greatly lessened.
We have never seen the advantage of
three ,iadges upon the bench. but on the
| contrary there are many serious disad-
vantages. While two or three must
necessarily consume time in consultation
and deiiberation. one relying upon his
own Judgment only would make a more
prompt decision and consequently in nine
cases out of ten more satisfactory one
to the suitors. If it requires only one
judge to do all of the work Of one of the
Baltimore city courts. why is it necessary
to have three to do. in many cases, not
as much work, in the circuits?
The difficulty with the present system
lies in the concentration of all the work
| of six months in the compass of few
days. As consequence all classes of
causes are heard Unfortunately, one
after the other. From the trial of a
| murder case You may turn to an action
of ejectment and then to an argument in
a chancery suit. Under such circum-
stances it is impossible for an attorney to
do justice to himself or his client.
The work of the courts should be dis
tributcd throughout the year. The cost
would not be any greater if as great as
it is under the present system. And we
hope our representatives in Annapolis
will favor ,.ly legislation looking to a
change for the better in respect to our
courts.

A Change in the Judiciary System.


From. The st. Mchaers Comet.
Is the Legislature to adjourn without
making a change in the present .)ud;ci Try
system? We hope not, but fear so. Yet
it is measure of great Importance and
of much more interest to the people we
think than the various local bills that are
receiving attention. Early in the Winter
it was said that one proposition was 50
to amend the constitution. as to consti-
tute a Court of Appeals, of five Judges
who should sit only in the appellate
cults or districts of two counties each
with u single judge. Another PROPOSE
ton was similar to the above SO far as
the Court of Appeals is concerned. but
instead Of circuit courts, there was to be
in each county court, with 4 single
Judge, who was also to sit as Chief Judge
of the Orphans Court. The jurisdiction
of the county court to be the same as
that of the present circuit courts. We
of those who have considered of the
matter when we say that either of the
pro posed amendments is preferable to the
present system.
That the appellate court ought to be
entirely independent of, and distinct and
separate from the court whence the APP.
pealS are taken is such reasonable pro-
position as to need no argument TO sus-
tain it, 4 Judge ought not to be com
petent to decide a case that can be carried
by appeal from his Judgment to another
court of which he is a member. even
though he do not sit during the trial of
the appeal. Eight judges constitute the
present Court of Appeals, but by reason
of frequent absences Of tho associate
Judges in attendance upon their circuits
it rarely happens that all are present. \
court gains nothing in weight or dignity
by numbers alone, and five judges to sill
in the Appellate Court only, will be able
to do the work of the present Court of
Appeals. whose members are from time
to time required to visit the circuits.
Strictly speaking there ought to be res
ident in each county a judge, in order
