name, who is an interIoper by mar

attention beside which her private car
sinks into insignificance.
Her wisdom tooth-and you may well
believe Miss Drina cut it some time

Gold or even the cheaper dental com
position is much more practical, but
radium is the most expensive metal in
all the world. Its value. according to

than half million dollars a pound, and
there are bit two pounds in this entire

II FANATIC critics all over the
country viii find cause for re-
joicing in the recent decision of
an English court of appeals to the eff
feet that in the absence OF. clear. proof
of malice. a dramatic criticism par
takes of the nature of a privileged
communication and that no action
therefor can properly be brought
against the publishers Of the paper in
which the criticism appears. The de-
ciSiOn of the lower court was in favor
of the plaintiff, a manager who sued
because the notice of his performance
was distinctly UnfavOrabIe.
At the trial the court instructed the
jury that it was not necessary for the
complainant to prove malice: that
malice might be inferred from the fact
that an adverse criticism was pub
lished. The instructions of the Judge
were followed literally by the jury and
damages in the sum Of S., $50, with
costs. we're awarded. At that time
attention was called, in this depart
ment of The Herald, to the ruinous eff
feet the decision, if sustained, would
have on dramatic critics generally.
Happily however, the lower courts
finding has been reversed.
