HIS HORSES WE'RE WOODEN


But All the Same He Had to Pay For

AS This honor sat on the bench from
which even handed justice was dis
pensed in the town of Lavilla, which
fiourished way down in Florida before
the days of Greater Jacksonville, he
was amazed to note among the prison
ers at the bar ''paleface."
Casting the eagle eye Of the law over
the room, he was agitated still more to
observe billed" shirt and standing
collar and that these were worn by an
other white man.
! The marshal, being called on, explain

was his lawyer. To a man cast in
less heroic mold than the mayor such
complete smashing of all records and
invading of precedent would have been
Waterloo. A white man arrested in
Lavilla and a lawyer appearing to
plead in it's court! To what are we
coming?
on his judicial composure, the mayor
announced that to fittingly mark sc
great an occasion he would disregard
the calendar and take up the white
mans case first.
The lawyer demanded the immediate
discharge of the prisoner on the ground
that there was no ordinance requiring

threw the court on it's "beam ends by
asking for a copy of the ordinance
book.
No one had seen it in years. Many
doubted if there had ever been one. A
whispered consultation was held be-
tween the mayor and the marshal and
a search instituted which revealed the
book, with brick on top of it, supply
! ing the place Of missing leg of the
| stove.
After looking vainly through the
book for law on flying jinnies" his
honor delivered judgment as follows:
"Ordinance No. II requires all keep
ers of livery stables to pay license of
$40 and imposes a fine Of twice the
| amount for running without license.
The defendant must pay both the fine
| and the license"
But" objected the lawyer, "this
man don't run livery stable; he runs
flying jimmy"
"He keeps horses for hire, doesn't
hep

and he charges nickel for one ride"
"The ordinance makes no fine djstinc-

license. A livery stable is place where
horses are kept for hire. 1t makes nc
difference whether they are wooden
horses or meat horses. Next case, Mr.

Stone Throwing.

A propensity to throw stones regard.
less of consequences has been one OF
the earliest signs Of natural depravity
among men since time began and, we
fear, must continue that way until the
millennium ushers in the era when bad
boys are no more and stones are con-
fined to their proper and legitimate
uses.
Anyway, the mischief wrought by
this vicious and execrable habit looms
up into serious proportions when the
figures are given out by plate glass in
surance men showing that it costs not
less than $25O,OOO year to make good
the losses thus caused by reckless boys
in this country alone.
With stone throwing costing $2oO,OOC
q year, carelessness in setting fires cost
ing hundreds Of millions more and
needless accidents causing immense
sacrifice of property, the good people
have many bills to foot which ough,
not to be theirs.-Leslie's Weekly.

NOTHING WAS LOST.
An Omission In a Wedding Ceremony
That Didn't Count.

That Didn't Count.
A distinguished officer of the United
States navy once told this story on him.
self:
At the time of his marriage he had
been through the civil war and had had
many narrowing experiences aboard
ship, through all Of which he kept cour-
age and remained as calm as brave
man should. As the time for the cere-
mony came on, however, his calmness
gradually gave way. At the altar, amid
the blaze of brass buttons and gold
lace marking the full naval wedding,
the officer was all but stampeded and
what went on there seemed very much
mixed to him. Fearing the excitement
of the moment would temporarily take
him off his feet, the officer had learned
the marriage ceremony letter perfect,
as he thought, and he remembered re-
peating the words after the minister in
a mechanical sort Of way.
After the ceremony was over and all
was serene again, including the off,
GERS state of mind, the kindly clergy
man came up to him and touched him
on the shoulder.
"Look here, old man." he said, "you
didn't endow your wife with any
worldly goods"
"What's that?" asked the bridegroom,
with something Of establishment in his
| voice.
"Why, I repeated the sentence with
all nv worldly goods thee endow' sew

would not say it after me-"
The bridegroom seemed perturbed fol

The Coffee Heart.

The largest part Of the coffee grown
in the world is consumed in the United
States, and some of our life insurance
societies are beginning to realize how
its excessive use increases the risks of
life. It's effect is in shortening the
long beat of the heart, and medical ex-
aminers for insurance companies have
added the term "coffee heart" to their
regular classification Of the functional
arrangements of that organ. These
physicians advise that the use OF cot,
fee be limited to not more than two
cups a day. Coffee topers, they say
are plentiful and are as much tied to
their cups as the whisky topper. The
effect of the coffee upon the heart is
more lasting and consequently worse
than that of liquor.-Detroit Free

pretty thing can quite we'll be worn

There is another I have seen, of
which l do not give picture, that is
! charming for morning wear. 1t is of
colored glace silk which fastens in
front with three cut-steel buttons be-
low tucked vest, where number of
tiny black velvet bows cluster closely
together, the neckband being of trans
parent lace edged with velvet baby
ribbons, which tie at one side in
Jaunty little bow. There is, too, a deep
collar of tucked white mousseline with
insertion medallions of ivory lace, and
the bell-shaped sleeves, with their edg-
ing of lace and velvet, give place at the
elbow, to a fulness of the mousseline
and lace, which is eventually caught in
at the wrist by a cuff of lace.
The smart bathing dresses of the
year are of taffeta red, blue, black or
white, but the trimming is invariably
bands of some contrasting color,
stitched or lined with braid.
The fashionab BILE skirt is we'll fitted
to the figure around the hips and far
ing abundantly around the knee
where it is finished with a deep band of
silk, a band of lace insertion set in
above the hem, or plain hem of the
same silk cross-stitched on.
Fancy gndle belts and sashes of silk
are conspicuous details, while the
bodice, always a blouse, is almost in
variably finished with deep collar and
chemisette vest. Hand embroidered
polka dots are pretty finish for vest
and collar. In color on black they are
especially pretty with "a band of silk
of the same shade around the edge.
Another pretty mode of trimming
is wide linen colored embroidered
beading run through with a band of
bright silk set in above the hem and
around the collar and sleeves.
Pongee bathing suits are one of the
novelties of the season, finished with
white or colored pongee collars and
belts embroidered with black rings.
Wool veilings are also used for bath
ing suits-besides the ever serviceable
mohairs.
Canvas shoes with cloth soles and
crossing ankle ribbons are the prettiest
foot gear. Kerchiefs are the most pop
ular headdress perhaps, but you may
wear a silk rubber Tam-o'-Shanter if
you like and still be within the pale of
fashion.

A SPUR TO FORESTRY.
The Preservation of American For
ests Has Become q Matter of
National Importance.

The forester, while not ignoring the
demands of his own pocketbook, works
for the remotest posterity. When he
clears tract of the wilderness of it's
century-old timber, he sows the seeds
for new forest, although the new
crop will not mature for another cen
fury. He seeks, even, by the scientific
direction of Natures work, to leave
for posterity a better forest than he
found. Surely, then, forestry is not
an art to be practiced by an individual.
The simple numbering of our fore
fathers, making the most profit for to-
day, and ignoring the morrow, is more
attractive. Since the forester cur
tails his profits by making provision
for posterity, forestry can only be
practlced by the state or by great in
vestment corporations, operating on
SO large a scale that the distant future
must enter into the calculations of
this generation, writes Frank Hix Fay
ant, in Success.
Strictly economical considerations
demand that the state prevent the de-
spelling of our American forests by
lumbermen and pulp-makers. The
yearly lumber harvest in this country
now amounts to more than 40. 900 ,OOO,-
600 feet. Great tracts of virgin forest
land have been devastated and no pro-
vision is made for the future The in
creasing demand for daily newspapers,
and many editions of them, is having
a marked effect on forests close to the
centers of densest population. A sim
gle New York newspaper consumes 40
tons of paper every day, or 100. OOO, 900
pounds year. Every day in the year
30 acres of timber must be cut to feed
the presses of this single newspaper.
This is an exceptionally large con-
sumption of wood pulp-the largest
in the world-but other newspapers
approach this consumption, and the
yearly cut of pulp-makers is rapidly
increasing. In consequence the avail
able supplies of spruce are diminish
ing in the United States, and the pulp
makers are moving northward into the
Canadian forests for their raw ma
terial
By the creation of great forests and
reservations by the national and state
governments. like the OO.OOO-acre
preserve in the Adirondacks. and the
proposed Appalachian preserve. the
state intends to set certain barriers
to stay the progress of lumbermen and
pulp-nakers. But the professional
