AT Reading last week, Judge Ermen-
trout, in charging a jury on an assault
and battery case, SAID ''apron strings
must be let alone. People have no bust
ness with other mems wives, whether i'm
a playful way or any Other way" This
bit of wisdom was spoken at the close of
the trial of Isaac Gross, for assault and
battery. A month 6 Augustus Pottei-

the street, walked Owe promptly and
knocked Potteiger down, The arrest OF

the apron strings.
When any person has a pet little
scheme for making money u of the
public. one of the first thing he does is to
call on the newspapers To help him. II
1t is a home entertainment, a church So
cial, a supper, a dance, a fair or anything
In that line the newspapers are mildly re-
