1T is not always necessary to throw
bouquets when you are out dining"
said a New York travelling man. when
l was in a Kansas town not long ago
was invited TO the home of a customer
to take dinner. A travelling man never
permits himself to misunderstood an
invitation to eat a home dinner.
Ny customers wife was one of
those matter-of-fact. common-sense
women to whom a primrose is a prim-
rose, whether it grows by the river
brim u in the %barnyard. Soon after |

thing of a gracious brand to launch
which would show my appreciation Of
her hospitality.

travelling miles to taste such butter as
that on her table! | said a few nice
things about New York, of course-we
all do that-but | admitted that there
was no such butter in New York as l
found on her table.
She couldn't understand that. for
the butter | was tasting, was from a
firkin sent her by express by her aunt
in Herkimer county. Just then l hap
pened to think of a story and the but
ter incident was relegated.
I'VE had got down to peas and al
lowed that there were no peas like the
homegrown kind. 1t added to the
lusciousness of the pea to watch 1t
grow and Gull it from the vine.
"She thought otherwise. Her peas
had been a failure ever since the
grasshoppers did her gardening last
year. and George-that was her hus-
bands name-had bought canned peas
ever since. | had been throwing tu-
lips at canned peas!
Il think l said something about the
weather, just then. That's what a
man coughs up when he goes against
the rocks. You would think after a
throw-down or two such as | have
mentioned that l would have confined
myself to the m%onosyllable; and l
would had not the little woman spoken
of the wild goose she served.

way, we can offer you in this some
thing you don't often have in New
York
"Of course. Allowing much in New
York's favor l must say that the goose
we get in the metropolis is a pretty
tame bird. l admitted this. And hen

BLUFF WAS NO GOOD

Judge Jarrett of the Seventeenth
Judicial district, before whom Gran,
woodward was tried and convicted o.
jury brIoing, tells this story to the
Kansas City Star of the first time &c
came to Kansas City and tried a case
cefore the late Judge White of the
criminal bench:
1 was quite young then" said Judge
Jarrett: in fact, | was what might be
called a green country lawyer. who
nae never been to the city before.
mad been told thai Judge White was q
tartar, so You can imagine that | w~s
somewhat nervous when | appeared
before him defending one of my own
country boys who nad come to the city
and got into trouble.
"A panel of t~wenty-four jurors had
been selected, and all of them had
qualified as being u~nprejudiced. AS
you know. after the states attorneys
have made their challenges and turned
the list over to the defendants attor.
ney, a reasonable time is allowed the
defense to strike off the names of mon
it does not are to have on the jury.
Twelve of the panel had taken seats in
the jury box, while the remainder &C.
cupied chairs neal by.
Before the list was handed to me
Judge White looked er his glasses
and scowled.
Young man. he said fercely,
don't want you to delay this court Oy
taking two or three hours to make
your challenges. By a reasonable"
time is not meant all forenoon
"Of course, | was frightened, but |
acted on a thought that came to me
like a flash.
Your honor | said, I have no de-.
sire to delay the court. The twelve
men who happen to occupy the jury
box will be satisfactory to me. | don't
know any of them and they don't know
me-
But, your honor exclaimed the
prosecutor, 4 want a few moments in
which to make .challer Ses."'
Cant have IT, said the Judge. II
the defendant is willing to take his
chances the state surely should be
equally as willing
The case was tried and I won 1t. l
cleared my man. Judge White cam
down from the bench and walked to
where l was standing.
Young man. he said, you're a
poker player, aren't you!
"'No. judge l AZ swered bashfully;
4 haven't played any poker since l be-
came a man.
Nonsense said Judge White. "A
man who calls a bluff like l made at
you e little while ago is bound to be q
poker player of the first water"
