WAYS OF LAWYERS.

A young attorney was accosted by
an acquaintance yesterday with The
commonplace salutation:
"How do you doP"
"As there is nothing to do" was
tho nonchalant reply, sit is immaterial
as to how it is DONE"
''Does the depression in commercial
circles affect the law business gener-
ally for the worsep should suppose it
would give it an impetus"
1.-THE business is not SO very bad, ex-
cept among Young attorneys. Depres-
sion in business is not the sole cause
of our ill-luck. Older attorneys, and
some of them having lucrative prac-
tice in the higher courts, are getting
in the habit of descending to justice
courts even in matters OF small ac-
count. 1t is true that some older law
yers make practice of turning over
petty suits to younger men, but they
are few"
"Are collections from clients becom-
ing more difficultp"
somewhat; but he Is poor lawyer
who can not collect his fee. There are
certain well-known attorneys recog-
nized In the profession as model law
yers, able speakers, and good counsel,
who bind their clients with rock-rib-
bed contract. III money can not be
paid them, their chattels are accepted
in lieu. A very well known attorney
recently made it condition of a con-
tract of this kind that in case the
money was not forthcoming, then he
was to receive the seal skin sack which
his lady client wore. Others will not
take a case without what is known as
retainer, which IL nothing more than
part pay in advances. Not few law
yers of certain class are willing to
take cases making their pay contingent
upon winning the cast OF course the
pay Is commensurate with the risk,
and is usually half the amount sought
to be recovered; but have known n
case In which three-fourths was allot-
ted. These, of course, are desperate
cases which no reputable lawyer
would take, and indeed which no at
torney with but little or no reputation
rs such would touch unless constrained
to do so by the hope of winning the re-
ward and a peal from the ougle of
fame. " Detroit Post.

A Oampaign Secret aixan AWAY.

In the campaign of 1884 the two can
dldates for 9 vernon in pivotal"
western State arranged for a series of
Joint discussions. Both men were popu-
lar, both of fine ap eai ance and were so
well matched in mental 1, rec as orators
that the contest between them promis-
ed to be magnificent one. For sever
al weeks the scales balanced evenly.
But one day tho brilliant Repusii an
candidate came up ailing. He seemed
overcome and spoke laboredly. The
next day he was even less eiie tive.
Later on he was compelled to ask his
opponent for n postponemcnt % GER
tain appointments, which was granted.
Before the campaign ended had
abandoned the field altogether.
Meantime the Democratic candidate
continued his canvass, seeming TO grow
stronger, cheerier and more effective
wfth each succeeding week. He was
elected. One evening IN | ecember
while entertaining several gent emen
he said:
" will tell You a campaign secret
which gave me the election. With the

campaign tour under precisely similar
circumstances and says he kept up un

Rejoiclngs Down South.

LEXINGTON, KY.-Mr. John L. Bruce
of the United States Revenue. Collec-
tors Office, informed an editor of the
Daily Press, of this city, that for seven
years he suffered terribly from rheuma-
tism in his ankle, which most of the
time was swollen to two or three times
its natural size, and was so painful that
he could not put his foot to the ground.
After trying everything he could think
of without obtaining relief, he at ten
o'clock one morning applied st. Jacobs
Oil, and shortly afterwards made two
further applications. At three o'clock
that afternoon the pain was gone; the
swelling also disappeared, and the cure
was as permanent as it was quick.
