just Is Guilty.

A story is told OF Pennsylvania
judge who once had number OF
lrishmen before him in one OF the
interior counties, indicted for a riot
on the canal. All their names were
included in the one Indictment and
the jury found them all guilty, though
one OF them, Pat Murphy. clearly
proved an alibi. They were all
brought into court to be sentenced,
and Pat was directed to stand up
with the others. Pat protested ve-
hemently, and reminded the judge
that it was clearly proven on the
trial that he was at the time sick in
bed, and at a considerable distance
from the scene OF riot "Stand up.
Pat" said the iudge-"stand up; you
are just as guilty as any of them.
You know you would have been there
if you could!"-Argonaut.

one way TO cure deafness, and that is by con-
