The Great Beef case.

One of the most celebrated of law suits
was tried in the circuit court Of Fayette
County, Indiana, in 1920. That county
whose county seat is ConnersviIle, has
been the home of some of the most dis
tinguished men who ever lived in Indi,
ana.
The case was as follows: Isaac Jones
kept butcher shop. Edward Harper
bought twenty-five cents worth Of beef
of him. Having no change Harper hung
Jones up for the beef Some days after
Jones dunned Harper for the money, but
the latter refused to pay on the ground
that the beef was bad. Jones brought
suit before a justice Of the peace, laying
his damages at $3.50. Several jury trials
were had, all of which resulted in failures
to find a verdict. Finally verdict
was given in favor Of Jones
for twenty-five cents. The case was ap-
pealed to the circuit court, where many
mistrials were had. At last, at the
spring term Of 1920, the case came on
for hearing again. The people turned
out as though it was rally for the
presidency, Or q circus. The counsel On
each side were numerous and among the
most distinguished in the State. After
the evidence was all in the counsel con
sumed two days in the argument, not
days OF four hours only, as is the case in
this city, but days Of ten hours each.
The jury was out all night. The next
morning they rendered verdict for the
defendant Jones lost his beef, and the
sheriff sold his farm and home to pay the
costs, which amounted TO over 81, 100.
His lawyers fees stripped Harper bare.
And thus were two men ruined in quar-
rel over a quarters worth Of beefi-

EATING Before sleeDind.

The notion is widely prevalent that it
is unhealthy to eat late at night or just
before retiring. This came from the
severe denunciation of 'late suppers'
contained in nearly all the old popular
works on diet. But it was the midnight
debauch that was the object of attack,
and even here it was less the gluttony
than the drunkenness which alarmed the
doctors and called forth their reprehen-
sions. A man may induce apopIexy by
gorging himself with food at any hour Of
the day.
Man is the only animal that can be
taught to sleep quietly on an empty
stomach. The brute creation resent all
efforts to coax them to such violation
of the laws of nature. The lion roars in
the forest until he has found his prey.
The horse will paw all night in the
stable, and the pig in the pen, refusing
all rest until they are fed. The animals
which chew their cud have their own
provision for late meal just before
dropping off to their night slumbers.
Man can train himself to the habit Of
sleeping without preceding meal, but
only after long years of practice As he
comes into the world nature is too strong
for him, and he must be fed before he
will sleep. A chiId's stomach is small,
and when perfectly filed, if no sickness
disturbs it, sleep follows naturally and
inevitably. AS digestion goes on the
stomach begins to empty. A single fold
in it will make the little sleeper restless;
two will awaken it, and if it is hushed
again to repose the nap is short, and
three folds put an end to the slumber.
Paregoric or other narcotic may close its
eyes again, but without either food or
some stupefying drug it will not sleep,
no matter how healthy it may be. Not
even an angel who learned the art Of
minstrelsy in celestial choir can sing a
babe to sleep on an empty stomach.
1t is fact established, beyond the
possibility of contradiction that sleep
aids digestion, and that the process of
digestion is conducive torefreshing sleep
1t needs no argument to convince us Of
this mutual relation. The drowsiness
which always follows well-ordered meal
is itself a testimony Of nature to this in
terdependence,
The waste of human life by the neglect
of the lesson is very great. The daily
wear and tear Of the body might be re-
stored more fully than it usually is if this
simple rule was not Systematically vio-
lated. .-Neao York Journal Of Commerce.

A letter from Nuremberg to the New
York Independent says: The third floor,
where our rooms are, shows all the traces
of having had but little disturbances for
centuries. Here is the tall old clock,
which has been ticking away, and swing
ing its heavy brass pendulum, through
all the revolutions of men and years.
The old chest Of drawers is medieval,
and spacious enough to have held the
linen of Charles the Fat. On a table
there lie some old books of the early
Nuremberg press. The print is perfect.
The paper, patiently handmade, came
out Of watts which were never filed with
aught else than fax fiber from the
Bayarian plains. The binding is Of
deeply oppressed parchment. bearing still
the arabesque reIiefs Of some now for
gotten but honest and tasteful binder,
who had more sense and conscience than
to trim down your margins to murderous
nearness to the text. Here is a book
whose margins were never touched by
the knife of the binder. Then the brass
clasps and heavy corners are still in good
shape, just enough indented to remind
you of the jars and rubs that will come
to even the best of books, as to men
If you rub away the green dust you viii
still see the beautiful designs, in all
their delicate lines, of the brass worker
Of the old days. Just beside this
volume there is a folio copy Of the one
early Nuremberg Bible, full of Holbein's
wood cuts It is a grand tome. No
where can one be better convinced than
right here in Nuremberg that the two
arts of printing and binding sprang into
perfection, like Minerva from Iove's
brain. at their very birth. Ny precious
leaves of Gutenberg's "Cathoiconn are
as beautiful specimens Of Typography as
the Chiswick press achieves to- day, and
as to binding, the workers in hogskin,
and then its ornamentation have really
had no successors. You could drop one
Of their volumes from that upper window
of Albert Durer's house, and have good
hope to pick it up without serious dam

Cayotes and Calves.

'sMajor Drum charges the low rate oE
increase on COW ranches in the Indian
territory to cayotes and wolves He is
certain that fully one-tnird Of the calf
crop on his range was killed BY wolves
the past summer. This is the case on
nearly all ranges bordering on the Salt
Fork and Cimarron rivers. Major Drums
line riders carry strychnine with them
all summer, and when a carcass was
found it was at once laid for wolves, and
the result was that over 200 were killed
during the season If every ranchman
on the strip would adopt this method il
would take but short time To % tllin
them out that the calves would not be-
bothered. There is at least ten per cent.
of TIE entire crop On these ranges lost liy
these pests. D. Cal5sse1 EKuasaa .8uFaag

THE BOND OF PAIN.

When the music your soul is filed with
Flowed out to the world glad and strong,
The heart Of the great world was thrilled
with
The delight of your song.
But long ere the world paused to hear it,
And yet while the dear lips were dumb,
heard for my soul was so near it)
The music that burdened your spirit,
And the songs that should come.
When your ships have come home heavy
laden,
With treasure repaying your pains,
The world, from the sage to the maiden,
Has rejoiced in your gains.
But when, by the storms overtaken,
Your ships with their treasures went down,
Twas then, by the fair winds forsaken,
At your side, with courage unshaken,
faced the worlds frown.
Now far in Fame's uttermost regions
You stand IN the light of the sun,
And hear the proud voices Of legions
Hail the heights you have won;
But when by your cares overweighted,
You wept in the valley alone,
Or groped on the hillside belated,
My heart with faith unabated
Clasped hands with your own.
You stand in Ihe sunlighted distance
And in the Valley of Tears;
! Between u.s. with weary insistence,
Lie the merciless years.

obey strictly all the directions. The
weight of the ingredients, the size of the
kettle in in which it was to be boiled,
the quantity Of water, the length Of time
it was boiling, were all attended to par
ticularly; but one triHe was wanting; the
king forgot the cloth, and the pudding
was served up like SO much soup in i'm
mense tureens, to the astonishment of
the ambassador, who was, however, too
well bred TO express it,"
An old English song commemorates
King Arthur's pudding:
"a bag-pudding the King did make,
And stuffed it well with plums,
And in it put two humps of fat,
As big as my two thumbs ="
1t is said that Germany IS the only
country except America which eats and
enjoys plum pudding. 1t is impossible
to tell what remote period plum broth
and plum dumplings evoluted into the
generous and jolly plum pudding. It
was somewhere about the period when
nightmare was discovefvu One is de-
scribed in King Georges time as com
posed Of 'hock. stock, sack and sherry,
boiled with sugar, spice, prunes, cur
rants, raisins, lemons, oranges and
wheaton bread"
The American palate need not depend
entirely upon American cookery to pro
duce the English plum pudding. It
brought to this country now in cans and
sold at SO much can to whoever wants
it.

A Curious Mountain.

Fifteen miles north Of Atlanta, Ga,
rises Stone mountain. Though frequently
visited by picnic parties from that Sec
tion, it is not as generally known as its
grandeur merits. America boasts many
higher mountains, this measuring but
!, 100 feet, but has few showing such re-
markable beauties. The circumference
of this mountain at the base is five
miles. For more than one mile it rises
abruptly 500 feet, is nearly four times
as high as Bunker Hill mountain, and
nearly as straight, then slopes gradually
to the summit. Of course the ascent
from this side is impossible, and on every
side except one is accomplished with
great difficulty. The view from the sum
NIT well repays the efforts as, in addition
to the usual charms Of Southern land
scape, one can readily distinguish Look
out and Kennesaw mountains, so inter-
est1ng from their historical association.
Stone mountains is composed of fine,
light colored granite. In some places
where exposed to the action Of sun and
water it has become striped, having the
appearance of pieces of bright carpeting
hanging over the precipice. Scattered
over the mountain are boulders. some Of
immense size and worn by water into
curious forms.
The Greeks Of old would assign its
formation to some god or goddess and
surround it with fascinating myths. We
moderns would rather reverently ascribe
it to the one Creator while curiously
studying the means He chose to employ.
No grasses grow on this mountain,
but its absence is supplied by reddish
moss found only in high attitudes. Oc-
casionally stunted cedar appears, pre-
senting a peculiar appearance. Not
only is the trunk itself twisted by the
force of the wind, but each branch shows
an unequal conflict with unseen forces.
At the foot Of the mountain axalias af-
ford wealth Of bloom in their season.
At least seven shades appear, varying
from white to deep red. A yellow va
riety also abounds. Tehse, with belt
of woodland, furnisha setting worthy the
beauty of this jewel
Stone mountain has given its name to
village about mile away where dwell
rs in heated cities may sometimes
breathe pure air. In looking upon 50
much Of beauty and grandeur they may
find rest for mind and soul, that rest
which an intimate acquaintance with ma
ture always brings. Cottage Hearth

ing this time the Mexican war inter
vened, and she was twenty three years
old when her wedding took place. Mrs.
Hayes is Chillicothe girl. President
Hayes made love to her while she was
going to school at Cincinnati, and mar
ried her after two years conrtship.
General Garfield was also associated with
his wife during her school days, and
there had been a long acquaintance be-
fore their engagement in 1856 Such is
brief history of the loves of the Presi-
dents. As far as we know they seem to
have been singularly happy in their love
affairs.
