LAWYERS AVOID DEAF CLIENTS.
Are Handicap to Their Efforts In the
Courtroom.

A man In the Tombs for theft con-
suited three different lawyers. each OF
whom seemed unwilling to undertake
his defense, says the New York Press.
The fourth man interviewed was also
on the point of declining the case.
Look here" the accused broke out
angrily, what's the matter with you
fellows anyhow? This isn't a din cult
case. You ought to be able TO get me
on easily. and I'm willing TO pay"
"The trouble is this" said the fourth
man frankly. You are very deaf No
lawyer likes to defend a deaf man I'M
less he is hard pushed for clients or is
going to receive tremendously big
fee. A deaf man Is SO very likely TO
queer his own case II he would only
trust implicitly to the lawyer he would
be all right, but that is something he
seldom does. He cannot hear what is
going on about him, so he flies into a
panic and fancies his lawyer is neg.
lecting his interests. and the first
thing anybody knows he blurts out
something that ruins the case. really
cant blame those other men for turn.

Curious Medical Phenomena.

Philadelphia physician, while
making a social visit at the house of
a friend, CHANGED to meet a colleague.
After a general conversation a re-
mark was made that gave a profes-

physician said

CHAPTER XIV.


She was gone before the soldier
could catch his breath and make a
reply, gone with flashing eyes, sus-
piciously moist, and with a breast
that heaved under more than ordinary
emotion.
AS for Colonel John. when he found
a vacancy where the charming Geor-
gia girl had just stood, he recovered
his wits and sprang to the door, but
1t was too late, for Mollie could no
longer be seen.
So the doughty warrior FELL to pac.
ing up and down the room, gnawing
his mustached lip in a manner sug-
gestive of at least annoyance, even IL
it could be called by no stronger
term.
Here's pretty kettle OF fish, sure
enough. What can | do to convince

villain she believes me? OF course |
