KNEW THE JUDGES VOICE.
And Hefuscd to believe the Judge
When lie Answered the
Telephone.

Justice Jerome, of New York, sat
in his room, adjoining the court of
special sessions, the other afternoon.
Between cigarettes puffs he was par
rying the question of half dozen
inquisitive reporters, when the tele-
phone bell began ringing vigorously,
reports the Times of that city.
In the absence of his clerk and
secretary the justice thought it not
beneath his dignity to play telephone
boy, and this is the one-sided CONVEX
sation that convulsed the newspaper
men with laughter:
This is Justice Jerome. What do
you want?" A short pause.
mo, it Is not the clerk; il is the
justice himself. What do you wantP
Spit it out"
"Humph Not the justice, you say?
Well, | was when | got out of bed
this morning and looked in the glass.
guess l haven't changed my iden-
tity since then. You want the JUS
tice, you say? Well, you have him
now fire away.
"Oh, you say, you know the justice
well and that this isn't his voice :?
Well, who the deuce am !, then?
Some fresh Office boy, eh? Well, /
can't waste any more time on you"
And up went the receiver with a bang.
81 suppose / ought to have that fell
low, whoever he is, arrested for con-
tempt in calling the court liar and
fresh Office boy" said the Judge,
with mock dignity, as he resumed his
interrupted conversation with the re-
porters.

The Serpent t
in Eden ~ ~ .x
BY owENDoLEN ovERroN

\ GREAT deal of unhappness would
"a be spared us in this world If the
pagan in us would stop cropping up in
our tendency to consider ourselves as
picked out individually as marks for
the shafts of the gods-if we would but
adapt ourselves to a broader modern
view of life. If for INSTANCE, Miss Bab-
bington had been willing to consider
Ferrier's case impersonally, in the light
of the triumph of environment over
heredity, both she and Ferrier would
probably have been very much better
off--or even had she realized that 1t
was primarily her own fault, in any
event.
She would have married him and
have gone west with him when he
wanted her to go. He urged as much.
Fate and physicians conspired together
10 send him to the jumping-off place;
the least she could do would be to go
along, he said. But Miss darlington
was cast in the same mold as that
queen who ended upon the guilotine
because she would not fly from France
essentially of trousseau. Ferrier
said things about clothes in general
that only the fact that he was i'll and
not himself could have excused-things
that no woman might hear unmoved.
A final quarref threatened, but it end
ed in a compromise.
Ferrier would go,to the Pacific coast,
as he had been bid, and the trousseau
being completed, Miss darlington
should take along her mother and it.
and marry him there. 1t would be
somewhat unconventional, but Cali
foruia itself was that, so no one would
have reason to be shocked. Moreover,
the prospect of separation from Fer
rier for year or SO was thing Miss
Babibngton did not like to contem-
plate. She cared for him good deal
more than her insistence upon the
trousseau would lead one not versed in
the workings of the feminine mind to
believe.
