Rule of the South Carolina circuit court
rules, adopted in 1888. provides that The
habit of the gentlemen Of the bar shall he
black coats, and no gentlemen of the bar
shall be heard if otherwise habited." This
simple attire mey suffice in a warm climate
but even in South Carolina the gentlemen
Of the bar must catch cold occasionally A
modest cravat or quiet pair of golf stock
lngs would lower the tone of the court but
little and would assuredly be grateful 10
the lawyers.
In connection with earlier rule of the
same nature requiring the gentlemen of the
bar to be attired in black gowns and
coats" il is related that on one occasion
lawyer came into court wearing black
gown and a light coat. On being repri-
manded for the irregularity in his attire. he
insisted that the rule did not call for a
black coat. YES, sir" said the judge, ''the
rule distinctly calls for a black gown and a
black coat" Begging your honors par
don,' responded the lawyer. ''the rule calls
for a black gown and coat-not specifying
color. There is d rule requiring the sheriff
to execute his office attired in cooked hat
and sword. Now, your honor. because the
rule calls for cooked hat. does IL neces-
sarily require the sword TO be cooked, too?"

HON. TO MAKE a GIFT.
The Wife of a New York Man
Knew the May to Do 1t.

A certain New Yorker, whose in
come permits the qualification of his
generous impulses, wanted to send a
substantial gift to an old friend,
clergyman, whose small parish in a
distant community vouchsafed him
more of love and reverence than sal
ary, says the New York Times. Il
am going TO send B. $780," the New
Yorker announced to his wife one day
in December.
care you?" she said. 'I'm glad"
Then after minute she asked: "How
will you send it?'
''By check, of course" was the re-
ply. "How else could I?'
But the wife demurred. "It seems
little too-too sordid, doesn't it, for
a man like Mr.. B? Let me man
age, may I?'' and the husband con-
sented.
On Christmas morning registered
express package was delivered at the
little western parsonage to Mrs. B.
She opened it wonderingly and found
little flat box. Going further, mat
of silk paper was removed and a
dainty booklet of Christmas remem-
brance was disclosed. This was taken
out and admired and the card beneath
it read for the givers. Something still
showed under a second mat of paper,
and, when that had been put aside,
there, fitted neatly in the bottom of
the box, were five tiny silken bags,
each tied close with little bow of
ribbon. Each contained $40 gold
piece. This was the wife of the New
Yorker's delicate way of eliminating
the check element.

a Happy New Year.

Delight and pathos are inextricably
mingled with the thought OF New
Years day. 1t is only conventional
point of time; any other would
do as well. Every day closes an OLD
year and begins new one, but for
all that we cannot help feeling that
this day, which is agreed upon through
out Christendom for the beginning OF
a new year, is somehow unique. The
pathos comes from the review of the
past, and from the sense that another
notch has been cut for us on the stick
of time. The delight arises from the
anticipation of the new and better ex-
periences of the year to come. What
interest any rational person could have
in having his fortune told is a mystery.
The zest and charm of life consist
largely in the fact that each day is
like new page in the story. If you
wish to enjoy your book you do not,
/, when it is half-read, turn to the clos
ing chapter to discover how it turns
out. You do not thank anyone for
telling you the plot. 1t is so with
| life. There is infinite satisfaction in
each days contribution to the record.
You do not want to anticipate it. 1t
would be curse if anyone could tell
you just what the year would bring.
1t is just as reasonable to suppose that
the year will be happy as sad. Who
can tell? Who can control that? Are
we not in the hands of God? That is
the reason for happy New Years
l day.-Boston Watchman.

A Tribute 10 Julia MarlOwe.

My wife is a constant diversion to me- .
remarked a club man in little coterie OF
friends. She is always saying or doing
something droll and original so that live
always in a pleasant anticipation of what
she will say or do next. Not long ago she
went with me on business trip. and we
happened in city where Julia Marlowe was
playing. Let me here say, however that
my wife is a fine cake baker, and trophies
of her skill in this line are always in de-
mand at church festivals, society functions
and what-not. Well, we went to see Julia
in Twelfth Night-that lovely play In
which her Interpretation of Viola is so eX-
quisite and SO charming: so modestly
boyish and so boldly girlish. My wife had
never seen her before, and / was curious
to know just how the enthusiasm and adj
miration which she must feel would be
manifested. Silent she sat- which was I'M
usual and deeply absorbed in the play. AS
Viola's skilled archness toward Olivia and
tender, graceful love-sickness for Duke
Orsini unfolded through scene after scene,
my good little lady became restless she
rolled her eyes pathetically on me, and
seemed to have things to say that could
not be ade luately voiced. Suddenly
however, some climax Of fine acting on
Julias part forced verdict. l heard a
little rustling at my side and turned to see
my wife half erect, leaning toward the
stage. on which her eyes were fixed.
WELL she EXCLAIMED dramatically
she's just fine; I'll go home and bake her
a cake Detroit Free Press.
