From the Detroit Free Press

land that was rapidly growing in value.
THE witness whom 1 most feared ana
on whose testimony expected the question
OF title to turn, appeared with broad -brJm
hat and the peculiar costume of the
Quaker of that day. His face was cleanly
sbaven and his manner solemn: but he
did not have that honest look peculiar to
the faith. 1t was with difficulty that he
was induced to remove his hat in the pres
cree of the court. He firmly declined TO
axe the usual form of 9th and made ar-
firmation. He used thee IN the nomina-
tive and objective case, as did nearly all
the Friends of the time, and l was con-
WINGED that IL he was not the genuine ar

testimony left us without a leg TO stand

A Timely Hint From Her Mistres..
Delfcate1y Given. Worked Wonder..
From the Chicago Times Herald
She was a very jewel of a cook when she
wasn't In temper. and. as this inability
TO live peaceably with her fellows con-
stituted her sole fault, three times had the
other feminine servants been DISCHARGED
Tor her sake. But when she began to be
impertinent to the woman who employed
her this patient individual decided that
matters had gone far enough. She had no
wish to lose such a treasure neither did
she intend to be rudely treated at her
nands; so. after some careful thought she
evolved a clever plan Of action When next
Bridget came Upstairs for orders she found
her mistress prey to severest melan-
choly
An what's the matther mum - she ask

IN her normal condition. Her mistress
sighed mournfully.

Bridget. sure of her desirability and

An why shud ye be afther havin' a new

Perfectly satisfied with your rerytces.

tne other girls on your account several
times OF late. but ] really don't think that
either my husband or my sons would be
willing to let me go in order to keep you
L really think they would prefer getting a
new cook to losing me-"
Bridget made no response, but she de-
veloped an unwonted degree of self-control
and her mistress reports that she has never
again been impertinent.
