DIFFERENCE OF DEGREE.
Both Parted Their Hair in the Mid
die, But Ones Part Was Much
the Wider.

One Of the veteran lawyers Of Bur-
lington, VT, is A. V. S~palding, writes
F. H.. Kelsey of Lowell, in the Boston
Globe. One day when he was trying a
case in the Chittenden county court
he called as a witness a stylishly
dressed young mar who parted his
hair in the middle, a practice that
used to be regarded as indicative Of
a dude" The young man, however,
gave his testimony in a plain, straight
forward n and resumed his seat.
When the argument came to be
made by the counsel opposed to Mr..
Spalding, reference was made in a
peculiarly cutting manner to the fop-
pish looking witness who parted his
hair in the middle.
On rising to reply, Mr.. Spalding
said: Il fail to see how the fact that
this young man parts his hair in the
middle has any bearing in this case.
He certainly has a right to part his
hair in the middle, and he parts it ex-
actly as my brother on the other side
does his, only" he added, pointing to
the perfectly bald head of the oppos-
ing lawyer, che doesn't part it quite
so wide"

This is also the reason why thousands

Mass. To her they can contide every

great knowledge. obtained from years
of experience in treating female ills,
Mrs. Pinkham can advise sick women
more wisely than the local physician.

They tell this one on former Gov.
George Hoadly of Ohio:
Once upon a time, in the midst of a

a speech at a little town in the great
and glorious Buckeye State. When he
reached the hotel the town boast
ed he walked up to the register and
wrote his name. The proprietor-head-

his teeth. When the visitor had put
down his John Hancock, the factotum

out the flicker Of an eyelid the name
there written, wrote 40" beside it
with a lead pencil, and said:

With more hauteur, and almost
quivering with outraged Importance,

Turning, then, with a look Of ex-
asperated impotence on his face, the
hotel man exclaimed:

strenuous President Roosevelt and the vitriolio
Senator Tillman, of South Carolina. The oppor-

Chandler to let pass. President Roosevelt, as

times eXtravagantly about those with whom he
may have a difference of opinion.
On the rate bill the president had some
strong differences and to Senator Chandler he
talked very freely about Senators Spooner, Knox
and Foraker. 1t SO happened that two OF these
