Aner TIM the LAWYER Kent s,iIl.

When the court on an extremely western
circuit was convened and the business was
about to begin, it was discovered that there
were neither pens ink, nor paper for the
use of the bench or the bar.
"How is this, MI Clerk" inquired the
judge.
There is no money allowen for it by the
county, sir, and We can't get the articles
without money
The judge made several remarks not at
all complimentary to the county.

in pompous and pedantic lawyer from
the East temporarily to try a case, "but
this is the worst ever saw
The judge jumped him on the spot
You are fined so for contempt, sir -

Mr. Lawyer kicked but he had to hand
over the money or 90 TO jail, and the
judge wouldn't have it any other way.

fine had been handed him, go out and
get all the pens, ink and paper necessary

they are not precluded from getting good
deal of enjoyment out of things that lie
close to their own doors. The most pains
taking sightseer does not necessarily see
what is:most worth seeing either a. home
or abroad. The lethargic person who went
to the top of Mount Washington aud then

represents a class. What is lacking in
such persons is the seeing eye.
