LOWER COURT SUSTAINED.
Opinion by Court Of Appeals I'm Case
of DrOOp VS.. RidenOur.

The Court of Appeals. in an opinion writ
ten by Mr.. Chief Justice Alvey. has affirm
ed the judgment of the lower court in the
case of Droop Sons against Albert NJ.
and Alice +. Ridenour. Messrs. Drop &
Sons claimed that Rdenour was indebted
to them because of an alleged discrepancy
in his account, amounting to about $1,000.
and that he had conveyed to his former
wife. the other named defendant a piece
of property valued at about 81. 800 without,
they asserted, valuable consideration. But
the Court of Appeals holds. as did the
lower court, that Mr. Ridenour did not be-
come Indebted to the plaintiffs I'm the man
Ter alleged, and had not entered into any
ccllusion with Mrs. Ridenour for the pur-
pose of defraudiag the plaintiffs. the con-
veyance OF the property to Mrs. Ridenour
being in payment of alimony. The Court
OF Appeals regards alimony or arrears
in alimony valuable consideration.
Having been ordered by the court TO
pay alimony, the defendant, Albert Riden-
our, conveyed the property in question to
bis wife because of inability to meet the
cash payments required.

things on the part of dogs that am
satisfied they are not guided by instinct
alone, but by certain degree of intelli-
gence. Some breeds of dogs are more
intelligent than others. Ours of low
degree can be taught but little and
seem to have only two objects in life,
to live and to perpetuate their species
A colored man in the South had a
singular dog. 1t was as long as large
dog, but it's legs were very short. 1t
had bark large enough for an i'm
mense animal. A gentleman asked
him what was the nationality of his
dog. The word nationality was not in
his vocabulary and hence he did not
comprehend the question asked him.
The gentleman, seeing his confusion,
asked him what was his breed, where
upon the colored man replied, she is jes
dog, that is ALL" Now there are a
great many just such dogs found every
where, resulting from a mixing of
breeds such as the bulldog with the
spaniel and the offspring with the
pointer and this again with the bull
dog and so on.

saving property and rescuing lives,
gains therefrOm no social position.
His business is preserve, the soldiers
is to destroy. 1t seems perverse
view of the world, that the destroyer
should outrank in honor the preserver
There must be some other reason that
guides the world in this election of its
heroes. In Spain it is the matador who
is the popular idol, and in large pro-
portion of England and the United
States it is the slugger.
Is it, then, because brute force and
physical prowess are held in such hon.
or that the inoffensive teacher is
looked down upon? The brietiess law
yer and the physician feel that they
have position above that of teach
er. If we look at the matter from one
point of view the ability to earn money
does not seem to give social rank, no1
always the possession of money. The
man who has made his money finds il
hard to come into his kingdom OF
heaven and sit down by the sister OF
the man who has inherited it. TO be
born rich brings man more respect
than to become rich by any exertion OF
his own r. NJ.

his thoughts turn towards home and
the dear ones there, but ne has not the
moral courage to return there a penni-
less prodigal. But how much better
would his future have been to himself
and all concerned in his welfare had he
done so, but he draws around him that
mantle of false pride and is lost. For
time he struggles on, but the future is
made dark and dreary by short-lived
course of vice, and discouragement if
not despair, takes hold of him. In this
condition he sees an opening for his first
crime, and falls victim to the devils
drunkards and various other kinds
of criminals: they take him in hand
and lead him through the dark lore of
vice and sin as if he were in training
school, and in fact he is. TO escape
from justice he sneaks to some rail-
road station and steals a ride to some
other place to continue on his career
of crime until retribution Overtakes
him and lands him in confinement of
more or less duration. All his after
life, however long. is embittered by
consciousness of lost opportunities; a
stain on fair name because ''you may
crush the vase if you will, yet the scent
of the rose will hang round it STILL"
The mercy of God purifies the penitent
soul from all shortcomings, but pitiful
man will point the finger of pity or
scorn, and yet there are very few who
are able to cast the first stone.

THE GIRL I LOVE.

am miles away from the girl of my choice.
And the hours roll heavy and slow.
For she said Good bye with a quivering voice
Then with tears. "Oh, do love you So
Those tears like gems in my heart are set,
And see them there all the time.
And Il do love you sO,' is echOing yet.
Like the bells most beautiful chime.
And feel the touch of the shapely hand
AS it casped my own at the gate,
and it seems to lead through this weary land
To home where the angels wait.
] still feel the warmth of the ruby lips
That gave me the goodbye kiss,
And no butterfly e'er such nectar sips.
Nor has tasted such exquisite bliss.
So my heart aches sore for the time to come
When that bliss again 1 shall know,
And hear my four year-old's welcome home,
And her Papa, 1 do love you sO.

and we all have times of depression
what pleasure to behold the faces of
far.distant friends and recall the happy
days we passed in their congenial pres
ence. Perhaps we did not then fully
appreciate their many good qualities,
but now, as we fondly gaze on their
counterfeit presentments, all their
faults are forgotten and we see only
the kindly expression of their familiar
faces and realize how much they have
added to our happiness.
In the darkest hours of our adver-
sity, when we are shut out from home
influences, with no genial ray of the
sunshine of love penetrate the gloom,
we are cheered and comforted by the
pictured faces of those we love.
