was holding court at Leayenworth.
An old man of the name of Joe
Whitehead, a farmer who resided
near that place, was always an at
tendant at court, not as itigant,
but as an observer. Whitehead was
drinker and full of wit and humor.
He had asked Judge Laird to let
him sit as judge in some case. So
the judge promised Whitehead that
he might sit as judge in the ssfrst
knotty case that came up" A few
mornings afterward the case Of
"Knott versus Knott was called,
when Whitehead rose up in the back

Upon His Friends.

Upon His Friends.
NJ. Henri Bonaventure Monnier,
the famous French caricaturist, au-
thor, mimic and practical joker, was
in the habit of showing his ability
in the last named direction to an
extent never even reached by such
n master of the art Us Theodore
Hook. He would carefully plan a
scheme and work up to the climax
with the skill of perfect actor.
One day he stopped at the door
of concierge.
''Is M. Henri Monnier here?" he
asked.
mo, sir" answered the concierge
politely. 'He does not live here,
and he does not call here"
"Oh, yes, he does," replied Mon
sier Mennier! SllG'y rhep, laughing a immod-
erately, he went Oft without another
word.
The next day he returned to the
house, and so great was his power
of facial expression as well as his
ability in making up that he was
completely unrecognizable.
"Can l see NJ. Henri Monnier p
was his question.
"No, sir. He is not here. No
gentleman of that name ever calls
here" answered the concierge, an
noyed.
.:Ha, ha! Wrong again! / am
Henri Monnier, my dear sir" and
on that once more he went of,
laughing.
On the third day still another diff
ferent looking gentleman presented
himself at the house and asked the
same exasperating question. This
time it dawned upon the concierge
that he was being "spoofed."
s'lf ever you dare come here
again and ask for Henri Monnier,"
he exclaimed, "Ill break a stick
over your shoulders.
Monnier went home and wrote
the following note to about half a
dozen of his friends:
Dear Comrade Il have changed my
rooms. / now live at giving the name of
the street and the house at which he had
SO sorely tried the concierge) VIII you
come this evening and help me in a little
house warming and tollification? We Will
have supper and real good evening.
The evening came, and the first
of the guests arrived at the house.
'1s NJ. Henri Monnier in ?"
This was enough for the infuri-
ated concierge Down came hi,
stick upon the shoulders of the
appalled, and mystifed visitor, who
was numerically belabored before
he could get away. All six arrived
in turn, and all six were subjected
to the same treatment. In the
meantime Monnier sat at home en-
joying the joke. he

Never eat when very tired. 1t is
better to refrain-to go hungry, in
fact, than to gulp down lot Of food
when your stomach is too tired to
assimilate what you eat. Another
equally good precaution is to rest
for ten or fifteen minutes anyhow
or longer if possible after eating.
Instinct teaches animals to do this.
