But" insisted the first taker you know
judges gown Is by no means as extensive an affair
that OF bishop. though just now forget exactly
how may yards OF silk II took to make that gown"
The other replied that she was satisfied that there
more silk In judges gown. A this moment
the porly form of a Justice Of the Supreme Court
appeared on the scene. and one of the ladies ap-
peaed to him to decide the In a good natiired
way he answered that he always hesitated before
considering case which involved In any manner
the question OF Church and State. unless il was pr.

more enthusiastic reception than its projectors
