Whenever the United States supreme
court, on hearing the argument Of
counsel for plaintiff in error, is entirely
satisfied that he has no case, the chief
justice is apt to say to counsel for de-
PENDANT in error that the court does not
care to hear further argument. AT one
time Hon. Matthew Carpenter from
Wisconsin was counsel for plaintiff in
error and opened the case. Before he
was through the court was satisfied
that there was nothing in it, and SO
when he had concluded and counsel
for defendant in error arose Chief JUS
tice Waite said, The court does not
care to hear any further argument"
Counsel was a little deaf and, al
though noticing that the chief justice
spoke, did not hear what he had said
and, turning to Mr.. Carpenter, who
sat beside him, asked what had been
said.
'Oh, hang it," replied Carpenter in
tones audible to the bench. 1.-The chief
justice said ne would, rather give you
the case than hear you talk."-YOuth's

matter Of receiving a tip and should
avoid approaching guest If he sees
him in the act Of drawing change from
his pocket. A waiter should never pose
as an object Of pity with view to Sc
curing a tip. If he deserves tip, he
should let the guest feel within himself
that he deserves it, and If the guest
wishes to give him tip he will usually
manage to catch the walters attention
or leave the tip beside the plate. Should
the waiter receive a tip previous to
waiting on the guest, he should leave
it lying on the table and then do his
level best to earn it.

The fashionable season in Italy, says
Luigi Villari in Italian Life In Town
and Country" is from Christmas to
Easter, the time generally known as
the carnival At Naples, Messina and
some other places there is also sum-
mer season. Commenting on the pc
culiarities Of life among the upper
classes, Mr.. Villari says:
Italians, even in the grandest estab-
lishments, do not wear evening dress
for dinner unless there is party. A
black coat is enough for ordinary pur-
poses. A few men who wish to be par
ticularly fashionable wear a smoking
coat with black tie, which garment
is sufficient for all save very large din
ner parties and balls. On the other
hand. there are occasions when a man
d0ns his dress clothes by day. 1t is de
rigueur at court functions, even in
mornings, and at weddings. Ladies
wear hats at the theaters except on
gala nights. They display more jew
elry by day than English ladies. The
Italian aristocracy have magnificent
jewels, and even in quite small towns
where there is no great wealth. the old
families can make fine display. The
tall hat Is only necessary at marriages
funerals and at court. Young men OF
fashion wear it also when paying calls
during the season. Among the bour
geoisie evening clothes are hardly evel
worn at ALL"

Two Clever Statesmen.

One crisis in Lord Palmerston's life
illustrates the absolute good humor
which may prevail even when political
enmity is at it's worst. Lord Derby had
made an attack upon him In the upper
house with such energy and eloquence
that the odds against him seemed over
whelming. But he defended himself
and his policy from the dusk of one
day to the dawn Of another with such
tact, dexterity and force Of appeal to
the national sense Of honor that he was
acquitted Of all blame by majority Of
fourscore.
Next day In passing through the cor
ridor leading from an anteroOm to the
upper house one swing door opened to
his hand and at the same moment the
other TO that of Lord Derby. They
were opponents. but they were also
manly and sweet natured men. They

was able to 90 only within a couple
miles of the boat. Last evening the
mate and two sailors Of the vessel
came to the city, after a perilous trip
over the ice.
They were nearly frozen and tell an
awful story of the condition of affairs
on the boat The three men who came
in were John Baker, mate, OF Buffalo;
Albert Walters, Lorain, and William
Yates, Of Detroit. They were sent In
by the captain to learn If anything
was being done for the relief Of the
boat. According to the story told by
the mate the vessel had little trouble
in getting through the ice until 1t

turn back to Detroit, but was unable
to get through the channel it had made
six hours before.

There are numerous reliable state
ments of grizzly bears having attacked
men. but nowadays the grizzly does not
seek out his human victims. as there
are credible statements that his fore
fathers used to do. Neither does he
lie in wait and, bouncing upon hunt
er, tear him into bloody shreds in de-
lighted fiendishness, as the old time
stories used to tell. The change in the
grizzly's disposition Is likened by vet
eran hunters to the change in the char
acter of the white cousin of the grizzly,
the polar bear of the arctics. When
the stations for the Hudson Bay COM
pany were established, the diaries of
the men there often referred to the
fright of attacks by polar bears. Many
a navigator In the arctic seas has been
clawed and chewed to death by polar
bears. But for nearly century the
polar bear has not been regarded as so
very fierce, and nowadays it is looked
upon as a cowardly beast. Association
with armed men has modified the polar
bears disposition.-Outing.

= The man who marries a girl just out
Of school has need of much shrewdness,
tact and fortitude, for the, first year of
matrimony will produce a violent reyo-
luton in her mind. AS she learns to
know her husband--she who has never
seen him except when he had his best
coat on-she will deem him brute and
will be disappointed and Disguised, for
she will compare him with that impos-
sible ideal of manhood which every
girl has in her mind and of which he.
of course, falls short. But with ox-
perience will come wisdom In time
she will understand that her girlhood' 4
ideal, If she were to have him in the
flesh, would be an unbearable prig,
and that her husband Is about as good
as men GO and eyen-if she loves him
little better than the next man.
A widow has all this knowledge of

lacks. A man talks to widow freely
as to one who has found him out. She
is expert in the arts of pleasing him,
