About TOOth-Pulling.

From the Oil City Derrick.
An Oil City man was standing in front Of
dentists Office with an anxious, unhappy look
in his eyes, and two yards of flannel round his
lower jaw. He cast sorrowful chances up
ward to the dentists sign, and in hesitating
then came out to the street again as
if he had forgotten something. Col
Scion came along at this moment, and
with thoughtful interest in the mans
sToethache, ehs Going to have it pulledy

horrible. It is. It's awful But wait till
the dentist runs them air iron tongs in

through your jaw bone, and then yanks away
and yer'n think the toothache amt no more to

just at this moment young man practicing

through the hall, the colonel said ssThat's it,

as another terrific blast from the horn came
down the staircase. ''Hold on, hold on!''
yelled the colonel-but he wasn't quick
enough to stop the man with the aching tooth,

'YOu Must Take Your Law From Me-"


In the recent trial of the directors of the West
Of England bank, London, for fraud. Sir J.
Holker, the leading counsel for the prosecu-
ton, began to read to the jury an extract from
the summing up of the lord justice-clerk in
the trial of the directors of the City of Glas-
gov bank, to the effect that the jury must not
only be satisfied Of the intent or motive of the
fraudulent use of the document said to have
been issued for the purpose of deceiving the
shareholders and the public as to the true state
Of the bank, but that they must be satisfied
that the statements were not accurate
The Lord Chief Justice Gnterrupting)-Y
must take your law from me and not from any
other judge. 1t is quite new to me that the
jury should be asked to found their verdict on
what another judge has said in another case.
It is perfectly irregular.
Sir J. Holker-I regret to incur your lord
ships displeasure in the course ] am taking,
but surely it is open to me to submit to the
The Lord Chief Justce-Any question of
fact but not of law.
Sir ]. Holker-You must allow me to read
this extract
The Lord Chief Justice-I cannot help it, but
it is most unprecedented You are telling the
laid down. The jury are judges of the fact:
they must take their law only from me, at least
that has been the practice.
Sir J. Holker-1hen do I understand that 1
am not to be permitted
The Lord Chief Justice-If you wish to sub
NIT any view of the law, you are entitled to
submit it. to ME, and will state to the iury
what my view of the law is.
Sir J. Holker then read to his lordship the
extract from the summing up of the lord JUS
tice-clerk in the City of Glasgow bank case, to
the effect above stated; and going on further
to say that the making of false statements in
order to keep the bank atloat so far from being
sufficient difference, was exactly the offense
charged in the Indictment.
The lord chief justice said it was much to be
regretted that this view Of the law was not
opened. 80 that the counsel for the defense
might have had the opportunity OF addressing
themselves to the topic.
Sir J. Holker then proceeded with his ad-
dress to the jury, regretting that the view he
took of his duty was not the view which the
lord chief justice thought was the proper one
The next day, the 5th of May, the directors
were acquitted.

As I spoke partially loosened my hold up

By this time Longee had led the horses out

We had hauled the rascal out into the road

Treatment of Interior Decorations

In the first of the series of his Cantor lee
lures, Robert W. Eds thus concisely states
how decoration and furniture of town houses
should be treated: s'The great aim of the de-
signer should be simplicity and appropriate
ness of form and design, with harmony of
COLOR and to show that the cheapest and COM
monest things need not be ugly, and that truth
in art and design need not Of necessity involve
costliness and lavish expenditure Fitness and
absolute truth are essential to all real art, and
be it remem bered that design is not the Off
spring of idle fancy; it is the studied result of
accumulative observation and delightful habit
and by careful regard to this we may make
our homes and habitations, if not absolutely
shrines of beauty and good taste, at least
pleasant places, where the educated eye may
look around without being shocked and Of
Tended by gross vulgarity and 'gaudy common
placeness."
HOW TO PRESERVE VEGETABLES GREEN.
new process by which q green color can
be given to preserved vegetables, invented by
NJ. Lacomt and Prof. Guillemare, of France,
consists in adding to the vegetables employed
evitable loss caused by boiling them at 1900
centigrade, they may still retain just about as
much as when they were fresh. The inventors
obtain the chlorophyl from spinach in solution
in water alkalized by soda. The vegetables to
be preserved are first plunged into boiling
water, to which small quantity of hydro
chloric acid has been added, and then the re-
qnired amount of the solution of chlorophyl is
turned into the water. Lastly, the vegetables
are washed several times before they are in
closed in the vessels. when they are subjected
to the usual high temperature necessary for
