England have been accepted with al
most as implicit faith as Bank Of
England notes inspire. Yet the her

using bogus titles in England and that
others are using titles to which they
have not established their claim and
probably could not bring any satisfac-

For example, an ambitious and re-

find In some secluded part Of the
country some lands formerly owned
by some extinct family of Smiths who
had possessed a title. He buys the
property, quietly claims descent and
coolly assumes the title. In London
such course would probably be ex
posed, but in the country people are
less suspicious. Nor is such imposture

Not long ago. while case was be

OF Germany at Breslau, one Of the
witnesses made a remark which dis
pleased the presiding Judge and he ex-
claimed angrily:

I've a great mind to punish you"
you have no right to use such
language to me-" replied the witness,
for I'm just as good as you are, and
II you weren't on the bench I'd teach
you a lesson for insulting me in this
manner"
Enraged at being publicly affronted,
the judge stopped the proceedings at
once and sentenced the offensive wit
ness to three days Imprisonment for
contempt Of court
Pardon me-" said the incorrigible
witness, but, If you know anything
of law. you must know that you can
not sentence me unless you obtain the
consent of the other judges"
This was true, and the judge hur
ried off to get his colleagues consent
In half an hour. however, he returned
and coldly informed the smiling wit
ness that his colleagues did not agre'
with him and that consequently h

The SIOUX MOTHER-IN-LAW.


1t Is one of the oldest customs of
the Sioux Indians that the son-in-law
shall not look upon the face of his
mother-in-law, or communicate with
her any more than is absolutely nee
essary. This custom is probably the
outgrowth Of family brawls arising
from their crude way OF living, hud-
died together In huts and tepees. at
all events, the plan seems to work
well.
When, IN case of sickness, or by in
vitation from her daughter, the moth
er-in-law visits the family OF her SON
in-law, a partition is usually made
in the hut or teepee by means Of a
blanket, behind which the mother-in-
law retires whenever the son-in-law
approaches the home.
In the case OF John Night Pipe. a
young bridegroom living In Ten
Horns camp on the reserve, the in.
visible mother-in-law was a source Of
great disturbance. Although he never
beheld her person, the sound of her
scolding voice easily penetrated the
blanket wall. John made several
fruitless efforts to dislodge his mother
in-law. and send her to her home on
the other part Of the reserve. but
without avail. He finally decided t.
appeal to the Indian agent for relief
This is his letter:
MY Dear Respectable Friend
have a few words to say to you, and
they are that am sorry to myself
1t is an old woman that makes me
very sorry every day because she talk:
with bad. bad words always to me
and never gets rested with her tongue
and l hate this kind of business. th'
bad words, l mean, holding them al

Now, If you will sending your 20
Hceman to take this woman to he
camp, 1 will be your truly friend Will
good heart, sir, and we will living
happy again. Now this is all and thi
is me.

MIR. JOHN NIGHT PIPE"

turbing mother-in-law was sent to he
