other day, "how many fowls are there
on this table?" why" said the old
gentleman, as he looked complacently
on a pair of nicely roasted chickens
that were smoking on the table, there

boy. "There are three, sir, and I'll
prove it," "Three!" replied the old
gentleman, who was a plain, matter
of-fact man. "Id like to see you prove
it," Easily done, easily done. Is not
that one?" said the smart boy, laying
his knife on the first, "and that two?"
pointing to the second, "and do not one

Ssms OF Them Have Humorous
A majority of the cases which we
deal with daily are pathetic or dramat-
lc, but there is a humorous side to the
work as well, and some of the most
ludicrous incidents conceivable come
up in our courts. says Scribner's. The
most common cause of complaint by
one woman against another in tene-
ment- house cuarrels is that She called
me out of me name A woman told
me that she wanted a warrant against
female acquaintance because. as she
said, Judge. your honor, she called
me q name ont Of me place, and ! want
her to prove IT," Those petty broils
must be given a hearing and settled
by such good advice as the complaint
suggests. He treats me sometimes
ridiculous" vas the complaint Of one
much-abused wife against her hus-
band. The man being brought up to
answer the charge and perhaps eN-
plain II, answered This is a dead
piece Of jealousy your honor; don't
mind her" An old Irish woman came
before me at the Harlem court and
wanted her boy" arrested for misbe-
having himself in her house. Il came
out that her boy" was 80 years old,
and when I said tc her that he was G.
pretty old boy she remarked: Sure

people seem 60 feel thGt when they
make complaint in court they must
use all the high-Gounding words they
know, regardless OF their meaning.
The result is sometimes amusing
enough to upset the dignity OF the
