The Prairie Farmer advises its
readers never, when buying a farm, to
take quit.claim deed when they can
get n warranty deed. The man who
gives quit-caim deed, virtually says:
"I don't know whether own this farm
or not, but you may have all my right,
title and interest in it, and the man
who takes it reasons: "I'll take this at
venture, and run my chances of get
ting something or nothing" The quit
claim deed lacks all the covenants"
which make the strength of the war
ranty deed.

Disagreeing Judges.

If sovereign is given to cabman
by his fare, both parties believing it to
be a shilling and an hour later the cab
man discovers the mistake and keeps
the sovereign, has he stolen itP The
argument of this question before the
Court for Crown Cases Reserved on
Saturday morning afforded excellent
entertainment to a professional audi
ence. The difficulty is, that to take
and carry away amino ftrandr' is an
essential part OF the common-law defni-
tion of larceny, and that in this case the
cabman did not form felonious inten-
ton about the sovereign when he took
it and carried it away, because he then
believed it to be shilling. On behalf
of the Crown it was urged that either
he took it when he knew it was a SOW
ereign, or the felonious intention which
he subsequently formed relates back to
the time when he took it. Before the
argument had gone far it was apparent
that the five judges who were hearing
the case were not agreed, and while
Lord Coleridge had no doubt that the
sovereign was stolen, Mr.. Justice
Stephen was equally positive that it was
not Mr.. Justice Cave further COM
plicated matters by throwing out sug-
gestion that the cabman might perhaps
have committed the statutory offense
called larceny by bailee. In the re-
suit the Lord Chief Justice announced
that the Bench was so seriously divided
in opinion that there must be further
argument before full court-that is,
the whole Queens Bench Diyision-S.

What Certain Gestures Mean.

To put ones thumb to ones nose
while the other fingers are vertically
extended and agitated, is a gesture. OF
mockery among nearly all civilized
people. Why? / think it is because
the principal effect of the gesture is to
render the nose temporarily snubbed-
which is done by the pressure of the
thumb, while the other fingers are
pointed at the person ridiculed. "Snub-
nose!-snubnose!"- e!"-that is the interpre-
tation of this fngcr-telegram, which is
equivalent to saying "You are fool!'
1t is also interesting to note-as a
vestige of antique beliefs that have long
ago disappeared in France the gesture,
which consists in retaining the two
middle fingers with the thumb, and
holding up. the index and little. fingers.
The children who use the. gesture for
pure mischief or derision doubtless
never suspect that they are repeating
an ancient signiof adjuration to drive
away.evil spirits, or to conjure the evil
eye. This gesture is still very popular
in Italy, especially, at Naples, where
many folks believe themselves hope
lessly lost if they had not about them a
little amulet of horn, or little carved
hand with two fingers open. to preserve
them from the jettatura. a.-Eugens

The Kind OF Gloves Which VIII 10 Worn
During tho Coming Summer.
Tan-colored undressed kid gloves will
remain in vogue through the spring and
summer, their only rival in color being
those of stone or gray shades. The
loose-wristed mousquetaire gloves are
still preferred, but they are drawn up
more smoothly on the arm; those for
street use are of the length of gloves
fastened by eight buttons. With tailor
dresses that have olose-wristed sleeves,
buttoned gloves fastened by four or six
buttons are worn; these may be either
OF dressed or undressed kid. and they
are ornamented by three rows OF stitch
ing on the back. Silk gloves are made
in the colors and with the dull finish of
Suede gloves, and they also copy them
in design. For evening, very light
shades of tan-color, beige. and ecru
Suede gloves are worn with dresses of
any color and with black and with white
dresses; among these the twelve-button
lengths are most used, as they are worn
smoother on the arms than they were

black, white, and colored, are very
largely imported for wearing with sum-
mer dresses. Lace mitts, both black
and white, are shown again for mid.

Best Work of the Artist

The Art-founder, Who Often Ruins the
Best Work of the Artist.
To make the matter clearI will sup
pose that one of the first artists of the
day modelled statue whichs is to be
cast in bronze. The statue is a seated
female, half draped. She has bare feet
and raised arms. The drapcry is full
of narrow deep folds designed to show
and emphasize the movement of the
figure. The statue is cast in plaster as
soon as the model in clay is finished,
and is handed over to n bronze founder
-" art founder he will probably style
himself. The first thing he will do will
be to cut oil the arms, because it is so
much easier TO mold them separately.
Then he will probably cut OH the body
at the line Of the drapery; then he will
likely ly,enough cut of the plinth. All
these pieces he viii mold and cast sepa-
IN ely. They have to be then cleaned
up with chisels, punches and files to re-
move the lines left on them by the
seams of the mold, the latter having
been made of many pieces fitted to each
other in the same way rs piece-molds
are made in plaster. ,--.,...-
The seams left ON plaster casts by
these latter are familiar to every one.
Ii there has been deep or intricate un-
der-cntting in any part, as in the hair,
the cars, or in the drapery. probably
this has been quietly filled in by the
founder-to the destruction of the ar
lists work--in order that it may be
easier TO mould. / know of one in

An Atlanta ga man claims to have
discovered new principle in hydraulics
that will reyolutionize pumping. Hith-
erto it has been an established belief
that water will not rise in vacuum to
a height of more than thirty three feet
for that reason pumps are generally set
withinstwenty-six feet of the water. By
the new discovery the pumping machin-
cry can be put on the surface of the
earth and as far from the water as is
necessary. The inventor claims to have
pumped water out of an artesian well
in Texas six hundred feet deep.
