Drunken Prisoners Excuse In

1t is characteristic OF almost all the
prisoners except the DRINKS that their
chief concern is to secure delay. They
plead and beg for an adjournment,
which they know Will only postpone
The inevitable for day or two, and
that although. through their inability
TO obtain bail. they will have to stay in
prison just the same. The most plausi-
BILE explanation is that they all are
fatalists. always hoping that something
unexpected may turn up to stave off
the impending catastrophe. The
DRINKS, on the other hand, are more
eager 10 face the arbiter of their fates
knowing that nothing worse than a fine
is likely to befall them and that the
sooner it is imposed the sooner it may
be paid or served of. And then there
is the chance, If the magistrate is in

A FEW
WORDS ABOUT
JODPRIN7INC

1t used to be that the quality Of
Job Printing did not amount to
much, so far as success in business
was conceived. Any business ma,
or woman could get along fairly well
without it. But we live in anothe
and altogether different era.
Today it is necessary for business
people to have neat stationery if the,
intend to occupy a prominent plac,
among their competitors.
When you see piece of job print
ing crowded and the type jammeo
too close together, with dirty-lookin.
INK and finger marks smeared over
1t, on low grade of paper, it doesn' I
speak we'll for the firm which uses it.
In fact, you don't have the sam,
opinion of that place as you have OF
ne man whose stationery is clearl
'rinted with good ink on the b..
,rade of paper.
The quality of stationery reflect
ne staud.ng of ones business. 1t
lerefore duty you owe to yoursc
. have good printing.

Indigestion is often caused By over

the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use OF alcohol. Eat all
the good food ycu want but don't over
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse to digest what you eat.
Then you need q good digestant like

TO MUCH NOISE FOR
 JUDGE TO HOLD COURT

The carpenters were putting in parti- tons which were to divide the market space Into three stores. They have been at work for several days and the work was nearly completed as far as they were concerned
 An interesting question which has arisen since Judge Sam Will John com menced presiding over the Police Court week ago is whether the Mayor can re- init a fine when it is a number of days and not money. The question has not been settled. although Mayor Drennen says the charter of the city allows the Mayor to remit any and all fines imposed by the police judge, no matter whether they be money or number of days on the street. Judge John says he has not investigated the matter and does not know how the charter reads.
 Another interesting matter which has arisen is whether a man can pay money for a sentence of days on the street gang. For instance. If man is fined $25 and thirty days for violating a city ordi- nance. can he pay S15 instead of working on the street? The rule is that a days work Is worth 30 cents and that a man fined thirty days can pay S15 and be re- leased This is another question that has not been settled.
