A lawyer in court room may call
a man liar, scoundrel, villain or a
thief and no one makes complaint
when court adjourns But if news
paper prints such a reflection on a
mans character, there is libel suit
or a dead editor. This is owing to
the fact that the people believe what
an editor says What the lawyer says
cuts no figure.

Oakley Halls Famous Likeness.

The caricaturist who catches the
expression of prominent men in
public life always jumps at some Pc
culiarity of feature and forever
brings it out in his drawings. Every
one remembers Thomas Nast's carl.
cature of Oakley Hall when Oakley
was the fighting mayor of New York.
1t was distinguished by a remarka-
BILE pair of eyeglasses which had a
very downward set from his nose.
Now, Hall never wore that pair of
glasses but once in his life. His own
fell and broke, and on his way to the
city hall in the morning he stopped
at the shop of an optician under the
old ST. Nicholas hotel to have them
mended. "It will require two or
three hours" the optician said. 81
will lend you pair till I can send
yours down." Mast was waiting for
Hall when he reached his Office, and
the first thing that struck him was
the glasses, which were the most
peculiar in shape he had ever seen.
Halls likeness in all of Nast's work
never was able to get away from
them. A person who recognized
nothing else learned to recognize the
glasses. New York Press.

A Postal Pro olem Solved.

Few things are impossible to the
postoffice. A letter recently posted
at ST. Martin Sic Grand was intend
ed for house agent in small mid
land town. The sender had forgot
ten both the name of his correspond
emit and the street and his residence,
but having an excellent topographic
al memory he supplemented his
scanty information by drawing a
map in the corner of the envelope
and putting "star" where the let
ter was to be delivered, AS posted
the envelope bore only the name of
the town and this sketch. 1t was
nevertheless delivered at it's correct
destination without missing post.

New Book Advertisements.

The new novel" has produced a
new style of advertising. Extracts
from reviews such as the following
are paraded and doubtless serve
their purpose:
A book as loathsome as this
makes record in all the nasty liter
allure which has been produced on
the sex question. - Daily Paper
(actual quotation).
Uneducated and unwholesome.-
Evening Paper.
The new novelists have discov-
cred that the more revolving they
are the better is their chance of sue
cess. Max Nordau calls them "epi-
leptoid cripples," but they have a
very good idea of business never
theless. So everybody insists on
"going one better" than his or her
generally her-predecessor. Gaul
follows Gaul, and Amurath to ANU
rath succeeds. Temple Bar

Quick Cure.

"Talk about your faith cure, " said
the man on the end seat. " Tain t
nothin alongside O. what happened
up to ST Stover's house only yester-
day. You see, Sis wife was took
awful bad, and they thought she
was dyin sure. So they got 81 to go
for the doctor. When they told him
to hurry, he said: All right, I'll get
him fast enough, but as I've got to
go by the shoemaker's may as we'll
drop in and see if my shoes are done,
and perhaps I'd better call and see
how the Wilder Stones does. Have
not seen her for day or two, and
Before he could get any further
his wife raised up from her bed and
said:
" You needn't mind about seein
any doctor for me. I guess I'm al
right now
AND so she was. She got up and
has been as well, if not better, than
ever she was ever since. But she
does occasionally give 81 a look that
makes him shiver and get out O. the
house as soon as he can. boston

A LAWYERS Scheme.

A gentleman once asked a lawyer
what he would do provided he had
loaned q man $500 and the man had
left the country without sending
any Acknowledgements.
"Why, that's simple. just write
him to send an acknowledgment for
the S., 900 you lent him, and he will
doubtless reply stating it was only
$500. That will suffice for receipt,
and you can proceed against him if
necessary.

Unbrokcn to the dreary sky.
From sky to Sky unbroken, save
For one long pile of rock and sand,
Ihat seems the lone, neglected grave
OF some dead Titan of the land.
No life, but when in stormy flight
The dancing whirlwinds cloud the air,
Or starved gaunt wolves that prowl at night
Howl hideous prayers to famine there.
Yet see, on those forsaken wolds,
Glad sign Of natures sweet caress,
How fair and pure one flower unfolds
The glory OF its loneliness.
A slendey spire with pendent bells,
Clust ring in ivory whiteness, hung,
Whence fragrant breath harmonious wells
Like dreamland melody unsung.
What waste so utterly forlorn
But bears the All Creators signf
What life so left to human scorn
1t owns not something still divinep
