Lawyer Niles was humor loving

a drummer. He owed me $1.90 for
several months. He was prominent
citizen of the village, and l was the
driver of a five seated carryall that
made four trips daily between our
town and neighboring city. So hes
itated to run him. One day as l was
passing along in front of his office he
gladdened my heart by opening the
door and stepping out into the road.
Guess owe you somethin,' Parks?
he asked, looking up at me seated on
the wagon.

Change In Headwear.

Undoubtedly the most important

has reference to the crown. This, for
most hat shapes, is higher than they
have been hitherto. save for capelines,
fiat at the top and rather wider at the
base Some toques have domed crowns,
but many are shaped like hats. the
difference between them being slight
and depending mostly on the arrange
ment of the trimming and the width
of the brim.
AS foresaw. the hat toque was
merely passing whim. A medium
width of hat brlm has been adopted
pretty generally, and il may be allow

Charles Russell was not bit taken
back, and on the conclusion of his
fathers speech said, "In preparing the
lecture on 'Curran' l took the utmost
care to verify all my facts, and the
reason 1 did not tell the story related
by the chairman is that it is not true
Of Mr.. Curran, but of another great
lawyer, Mr.. Sargent" 1t was funny
incident, and but proved again the
truism of the son being the father of
the man.
Lord Russell, apart from racing, made
a habit Of collecting snuffboXes. When
one of his friends desired to make
him a present jewelers. and curio deal
ers' shops We're ransacked for any
thing historical or quaint in that par
ticular form. A certain distinguished
actor, to whom Lord Russell, as Mr..
Charles Russell, @. c., had rendered
a service, one day entered the shop of
a jeweler in the uaymarket and
asked to see something really original
and old in the way of snuffboXes.
For Lord Russell, 1 suppose, sir?'
was the assistants preliminary ques>
ton. The answer cleared the ground;
the assistant knew almost exactly
what the chief justice possessed and
what would be welcome addition to
his collection.
A lawyer once asked him: "What is
the extreme penalty for bigamy?" and
quick as flash the chief justice re-
piled: 1.-TWO mothers-in-law"
1t is whispered in Temple circles
that the late lord chief justice had,
in the plenitude of his success at the
bar, realized the enormous income Of
f25,00O q year. Mr.. Benjamin, the
great American lawyer, who came to
this country and joined the bar here,
is reputed to have made 100000 year
out of English litigants, and it was
said to be the late chiefs ambition to
overstep this record. 1t is not known
that he ever succeeded in making over
100000 year, but he must, in some
years, have gone very near these fig
ures But he worked for his money
as few men would care to work. BY
day in court, pitting his keen intellect
against intellects as keen, by night in
parliament, and thence to his study to
peruse the briefs which poured in upon
him. He was n man of rigorous and
active life, and an ardent horseman
He attributed his health and enor-
nous capacity for work largely to his
morning gallop.
