that after you had been absent fol
an entire month you did not kiss the
plaintiff, to whom you were engaged to
be married, when you first saw her or

firmly.
will you make that statement to the
jury?"

you?"
lone of them would, know"
"Ah, indeed, Why should he?"
Because he was present when I first
saw her. He was at the gate when
rode up, and she stuck her head out of
the second story window, and I asked
her, How dye do?' and said I'd be
back to supper in half an hour. I'm
no giraffe"
And everybody in the court smiled

sippian of famous wit, Idaho is long
way off, and I can't tell you much
about why Shoup got left; but I can
tell you about Mississippi; I know all
about it." Then in a confidential whis-
per and with an air of imparting some
startling secret, he added: Missis-
sippi isn't sending her best men to the
