A Gallant Judge.

In case before a Paris court, in
which popular actress has had to ap.
pear as a witness, the judge seems to
have shown considerable diffidence
about asking the lady, rs he was in
duty bound to do, what was her age.
Evidently he considered that such a
question, put to such witness, would
be direct Indictment to perjury.
The way in which he got out OF the
difficulty was ingenious, although de.
cidedly irregular. He asked her her
age before she had been sworn.
"How old are you, madam~ he
asked.
After a little hesitation the lady
owned to being 80 years OF age.
"And now that you have told the
court your age" continued the gallant
judge, "you swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth and nothing but the
truth"

Mark Twain has written a strong
