Most persons have an ambition to carry
q gold watch case, and yet few people know
how q watch case is made, or the vast diff
ference in Inequality of them. Ina SOLID
GOLD WATCH CASE, aside from the neces-
sary thickness for engraving and polishing,
large proportion of the metal is needed
only to stiffen and hold the engraved por-
tions in place, and supply strength. The
surplus is not only needless, but undesira-
bic, because gold is soft metal and cannot
furnish the stiffness, strength and elasticity
necessary to make the case permanently
strong and close-ftting. The perfect watch
case must combine gold with some metal
that will supply that in which the gold is
deficient. This has been accomplished by
the james Boss Gold Watch Case ~ x.zv
which saves the WASTE of need 3 D
less gold, and INCREASES the soIIDITY and
STRENGTH of the case, and at the same time
reduces the cost ONE HALF.

Remember, Boys.
BY G. II. BARNES.

Little friends. when you at play on the street,
Half frantic with frolic, laughter and noise,
Don't ever forget to bow when you meet -, -
When you meet old man with gray hairs, my
boys.
Is the aged man feeble, decrepit and lame?
Does he lean his staff with unsteady poise!
Never mock at his sorrow, but stop In your game
And bow to the man with gray hairs, my boys.
If he sometimes halts in his tottering pace
To witness the flow of your Innocent joys,
Don't jostle the old man out of his place,
But greet his gray locks with bow, my boys.
Remember, the years are only few,
Since he, on the street with his games and toys,
Was healthy and happy and active like you;
And bright as the sun were his curls, my boys.
But age has furrowed the cheek that was fair;
While sorrows have broken his once mellow voice
And there is many silvery hair
On the head where the curls were so Dr1gnt, III,
boys.
The Spring-day of youth is gem: it is gold.
But Time all its glorious luster destroys;
And, gay little friends If you live to be old,
Your steps will be slow, your locks gray, my boys
So, when you are blithel- at play on the street,
Half frantic with frolic and laughter and noise,
Remembers to pleasantly bow when you meet
When you meet an old man with gray halrs, m!
boys.

The American Hat.

The question of mans right to
wear his hat in court-or rather OF the
courts right to make him remove it
is in fair way to be tested. In JUS
tice court on Staten Island few days
since a spectator was commanded by
an officer to remove his hat. He re-
fused to obey the order, alleging that
he was bald and that the preservation
of his health required him to wear his
hat so as to avoid draugbts of air upon
his unprotected scalp. He was arrest
| ed, however, and fined for contempt of
court; and upon refusing to pay the
fine he was committed to prison. for
five days. He threatened to bring suit
for damages and try the question of the
Justices authority.
If he does, it will be an interesting
trial. Courts do universally insist on
uncovered heads, and always have in
this country, except in the earliest
days, and in the case of Quakers. whose
religious scruples would not permit
them to remove their hats. But have
they any real right to insistP Have
they any more right to compel man
to remove his hat than to demand the
removal of his coat or his boots? The
notion of honor or dishonor, respect or
disrespect in wearing or not wearing
the hat is purely artificial. 1t has no
foundation in the principle of things.
If it had it would be a contempt of
court for ladies TO appear with covered
heads, as they invariably do, even in
the witness box.
1t would probably shock the judici-
airy almost off the bench if it were de-
cided that the American citizen, under
the Declaration of Independence and
the ''@gis of liberty "-whateyer that
may be-has right to wear his hat
when and where he pleases.

scene Oh the Plains


One Of the most startling and roman
tic features OF border life occurred re-
Gently on the Wild Horse prairie. thirty
miles north Of Los Angeles, when 9
band Of wild horses, under the lead Of
a noble sorre1 stallion, came galloping
over the plains to reconnoiter > com
pauv Of surveyors engaged in making
. survey Of the tract Tie band dashed
toward Captain Keller and his party o.
surveyors till within about 500 feet
when the leader halted In grandly
proud and defiant manner, with neck
curved, nostrils distended, erect, and
taii on dress parade, and all the band
ranged themselves on each side Of him
like squad of cavalry In a battle
charge. After surveying the scene fol-
a few moments the leader galloped
proudly away, followed by the band in
the most graceful and dignified man
ner. The scene was most romantic,
and the picture of the lordly leader,
with his most obedicnt subjects in their
fleet and graceful motions, was worthy
of an artists pencil. There was an
other band of wild horses on the same
prairie, under the leadership of dark
mahogany bay stallion. with black
name, tail and knees. In this band
there are two white horses, while the
rest are bay and sorrel mainly. Few
people are aware that at the northern
base of Sierra Madre, only thirty miles
from this city. wild horses roam in
their native beauty and crop the rich
grasses that grow on Wild Horse prai-
RE. Yet such is the fact, and their
slick appearance and graceful motions
are the admiration of all beholders. -
