MODEST LADIES.

We know that ladies are natural
ly modest. We would not have
them otherwise, for this is their
browning jewel in the eyes of a re-
fined gentleman. But there is what
we call a FALSE mOdesty. 1t man
ifests itself when lady feels such
Il mOdesty as to prevent her from
submitting to treatment for the
radical cure Of her disease. Permit
us to say: lay aside your false
mOdesty and come and be cured.
We treat as many ladies as gentle
men.
The famous Tildcn treatment is
used only by the Texas Medical
and Surgical Institute.

A FINE LAW POINT.

An Indiana Judge Decides What
Is Larceny and What Is Trespass.
Detroit Free Press.
'Do you know anything about law?"
nonchalantly remarked the drummer to
the postal clerk.
NO." replied the innocent.
"Well. ignorance of the law is no
excuse" laughed the drummer, "but
that is not what l am here for. | want
TO tell you of a fine law point l recently
saw decided by a justice of the peace
of Indiana. You don't know, of course"
and the drummer looked as if he we're
very sorry for the clerk, $50 Phi tell you
that the law in Indiana is if man steals
fruit from the tree, corn from the stalk
or potatoes from the hill he can only be
held for treSpass, but if the property be-
then taken, he may be held for larceny,
and larceny is a serious otfenSe."
The clerk nodded as if he knew per-
fectly the difference between realty and
larceny.
Last week." continued the drummer,
VI was in that state, and one afternoon
l dropped into a Justices court. where
a man was being examined for stealing
a bag of potatoes. The justice was a
new one, but the prisoner was an old
offender, and the crowd in the room
seemed anxious to see how the novice
was going to deport himself on his first
case. They also wanted to see the
prisoner get a dose that he deserved,
for they had all suffered by him, and
not a few bets were laid that the new
squire couldn't do any better with the
law han his predecessors had done. 1t
was a clear case against the prisoner.
for the owner of the potatoes had chased
bin out of the field, cen him throw the
bag over the fence, get owe after it,
pick it up and disappear in the woods
adjoining, but could rot capture the
thief, as he was old and lame. The
prisoner was smiling, for the trespass
penalty was light and he had been
caught but once."
"Come to the point, will you?" kindly
suggested the clerk.
"By and by" responded the drummer.
"The case being as l have stated, and
the learned justice having heard the
testimony, to the surprise and pleasure
OF everybody except the thief, held the
prisoner for larceny; for, said he,
While it Is treSpass TO steal potatoes
from the hill, it is larceny to steal them
when they are separated from the realty,
aud l hold that it was trespass until he
threw them yer the fence, and separ-
ated them from the realty; then when
he picked theu up again, on the far
side of the fence. the offense became
larceny, and ] shall hold the prisoner
for larceny"
"Whetherit was good law or not"
concluded the drummer, Il am not here
to say, but it went just The same, and it
paralyzed the prisoner"

St. Louis Republic.
The Baltimore oriole Is a prince in the
house of princes. The family to which
he belongs is composed of birds remark
able either Tor plulnage. note, nest,
eggs. or habit. Each can claim some
thing curious and original, but the
Baltimore shines in every one OF these
particulars, for in plumage, song and
able bird. When the Earl of Bal
timore became the lord of Maryland
his followers quickly noticed the
correspondence between his heraldic
livery of orange and black and the
orange and black of the beautiful bird
that so abounded in the new estates, SO
that, very naturally, the name "Baltl-
more blrG" was suggested and has been
borne ever since. His nest is one of the
most wonderful examples of bird weav-
ing in existence. 1t is made OF separate
threads, strings, hOrsehair or strips of
bark closely interviewer into Il sort of
sack and so firmly knit together that it
Will bear a weight of twenty or thirty
pounds.
In the southern part of this birds
range the nestis suspended from two or
three terminal twigs for protection from
numerous enemies, such as snakes,
opoSSumS and the like; it is also made
six or seven inches in depth to proven
the eggs being thrown u by the high
winds. But in the colder north, where
tree-ciimbing foes are rare, it is hung
not at the eXtremeties of the branches,
but Ill a cluster of twIgs that afford
shelter. 1t is much shallOwer than
when exposed to the wind, but is very
thickly woven and lined with soft,
warm materials. The orioles loud,
ffe-like notes, ringing from the high
tree tops i'll the morning, are ample
refutation of the old theory that melody
and bright plumage have never been
bestowed OH the same bird.
