A Walk for Women to Initiate.

writer on the great need of the con-
servation Of the nerve forces OF the
modern woman advises her to force her
self to move slowly even II in a hurry,
and to try in walking to initiate the
gait Of the city policeman. adding that
there Is no danger that she will succeed
in copying 1t exactly. The appropriate
ness Of the model offered is obvious.
since the disinclinati ion OF the official de-
fender of the peace to hasten his steps
even in seasons of extreme need has be-
come proverbial. and his measured.
swinging gait seldom varies. The nerv-
GUS woman is advised to keep still out
wardly even to her finger tips II she
would acquire rest and quiet of mind.
and to allow herself no motion that has
not its definite purpose and aim.

TWO REMARKABLE CASES.

Two singular cases are attracting the
particular attention of the lawyers Just
now.
MyeP ]. Stein, q reputable young at
torney, testified In the McArdle- Don
nelly shooting trial that he took II PTS
tol from one OF the McArdle party who
had fred 1t at Donnelly. The pistol
which Stein swore he had kept In his
possession ever since the occurrence
was produced In court.
Subsequently the manufacturers of
the pistol testified that II had not been
sold out of the factory until ten days
after the shooting. The weapon was
Identified by Its registered number.
Mr. Stein, who Is indicted for perjury.
declares that somebody must have sub
stituted the pistol produced in court for
the one he took from the McArdle party.
In the other case It In charged that "A
lawyer named Jacobs obtained five hun
dred dollars from a female client, who
had a suit in the Civil Court before
Judge Ehrlich, on the pretense that II
was needed to INK the Judge" The suit
was decided In the woman's favor.
Judge Enrich, who has borne an ex-
celient reputation, positively denies all
knowledge OF the transaction. and finds
from the records of the suit that II was
decided on It's merits in accordance with
the evidence. No one who knows Judge
Enrich believes him capable OF takins
a bride.
Both these cases demand complete
and satisfactory clearing up. Every
body wishes to see the Bench and tht
Bar freed from even the suspicion OF
| bla ckmail and perjury.

interesting occupation and capital

the pieces into mats. First cut the
pieces Of carpet about two and a half
