THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
One Who Had to Inquire the Meaning
of "sP1aintlH" and "De-
fendant."

It is a common and natural practice of
lawyers, in addressing jury to single out
one member who seems to them the most
him. They usually feel that if, they can
impress him, his influence will be valuable
in its effect upon the other members. If
they make mistake they rarely discover
it, says the New York Sum- But the
stenographer of one division of the supreme
epurt tells an incident of a mistake that
was found out.
All the testimony in . case had been
taken, the lawyers for both sides had
summed, up, and the judge had charged the
jury, when up rose the intelligent juror
whom both counsel had singled out as the
recipient of their imprisoned appeals. He
wanted the court to give him some in
formation.
II have been bothered good deal," said
the juror, "about two words the lawyers
use here all the time"
"What are they?" asked the court, ex-
pecting, to be called upon to expound res
inter altos acta or a fortiori, or some other
dead terms.
"Why, plaintiff and defendant" said
the juror. ~"I don't just know what they
mean" -.

MEMORIAL DAY IN THE SOUTH
The Story of How the Custom OF Dec.
Grating Soldiers Graves
Originated.

An association known as the Ladies'
Aid society, was organized il 1861 for
looking after soldiers who died in Co.
lumbus hospitals. They were buried
under the direction of these ladies,
who thereafter took charge of these
graves, making it practice TO go in a
body to care for and beautify them with
plants and flowers. January, 1866, Miss
Lizzie Rutherford, member of the So
ciety. made the suggestion that spe-
CITED day should be adopted upon which
a memorial service should be held for
the purpose of decorating the confed-
crate graves annually. The PROPOSE
ton met at once with the greatest "a.
vor, and letter was addressed to each
of the chapters in their cities and
towns suggesting similar action on
their part.

THE OLD SOLDIERS DAY..
mortal Day-The NattOn's
National Debt. nt%ES t.

In 1865 occurred one of the most i'm
pressive and soul-stirring pageants
which this country has ever seen. On
the 23d and 24th of May, the armies of
the union passed in grand review be-
fore the president and the secretaryEof
war, in Washington. On the first day
$4,000 men of the Army of the Potion ac
marched through the streets of the ma
tional capital, and on the following day
the 50 900 members of Sherman's army
carried their tattered flags over the
same Line of march.
In all there were 149, 900 men in tia
blue tide which, for six hours on one
day and seven on the next, flowed pas
the capitol; and on the great banner
which stretched across the front of the
building the tired and war-worn vet
Grams read sentiment which must
have touched their hearts. 1t was
their country's acknowledgment of her
sense of obligation to them. The words
were these: ''The only national debt
we can never pay is the debt we owe
the victorious union soldiers"
Today, says the Youths Companion,
a thousand little professions made uE

Americans Make Their Annual Pill

Santa r ums.

And now the steamers are BEARING
away hundreds of Americans to the
"get-healthy-quick" concerns of Eu-
rope, says Golfers Weekly. Some will
go on starving diets, others on stuffinp

OF water, others vast quantities of

cures. And all will be vastly improved
In appearance and will leave their re-

without a grudging thought about the
money they have been relieved of bv
the hordes of bandits that run "cures.''
The time is not yet, but neither is it
far distant, when cynicism will get a

They rest rock-founded upon the uni
