LIVELY DoRss IN COUNTY JUDGE oFFc-

Chief Clerk Clyde sundblad OF the county
court is not a vain man. On the contrary.
he is modest and retiring in nature With
this fact in view il Is not strange that
many of his Accomplishments are unknown
even to his most intimate friends and as
sociates. For example. it was never sus-
pected even in the most remote flights OF
ina gination that Mr.. Sundblad Is an adept
In the art OF taking care OF infants. Never
theless, he is He proved IL Monday be-
fore the eyes Of a number Of competent
Witnesses.
A colored couple came in to get married
The bride carried a baby. II was sleeping
peacefully. and when the time arrived for
the wedding the mother looked around for
place TO leave her child. At that critical
moment Mr.. sundbiad appeared. The
mother saw his eyes upon her child. She
saw in his face a smile. She did not know
that this is Mr.. sundblad's perennial smile
the smile that won't come of. the smile
that lights up the county judges once all
the hours of the day. The mother thought
naturally Mr.. sundblad's smile was one OF
admiration for her infant. Thereupon she
at once extended the precious bundle to
him. 1t was a hAttering indication of her
trust in the chief clerk -.s.
sunbIad Holds the Darling.
He hesitated. but 0zsy for a moment
Then he took the babe, and the mother.
having cautioned him to be very careful.
went on with the wedding ceremony. Mr
Sundblad lowered behind the door OF the
county judges once while this was going
on As stated before he is very modest
He was not anxious TO show the once that
he was capable OF taking care Of the little
child. He would have performed this duty
and gone on his way rejoicing without
asking any praise or adulation from his
fellows.
True merit. however. viii always be
found out. Harry Morrill, had seen the
transfer Of the baby 70 Mr. Sundblad's
arms and quickly spread the news There
upon businsss Of some kind took nearly all
the employees into the judges once. where
the ceremony was going on. and where
Mr.. Sundblad was modestly hiding his
light under a bushel behind the door.
The mother allowed the chief clerk to
hold her child while she put on her wraps.
smiling at him in a way that indicated
she trusted him implicitly with her child.
BY this time the number OF persons who
had business taking them into the judges
once was truly amazing.
Even now Mr.. Sundhled's nodssty causes
him TO disciaim any honor or distinction
as a custodian Of infants. When people
mention It he waves his hand depreciat-
I inEly and. Il Is said. in threatening man
ner. He positively resents being called

How the Law Helps

Congressman James E. Watson of the Sixth told story while in town last week anent the operation of the pure food law, and intended to illustrate his expressed theory that more people would be good if they had to be.
 ''It was while we were wrestling with the pure food bill at Washington, v he said, "that got letter from home, written by man from whom l bought a big quantity of maple syrup each year. He urged me to fight for the pure food bill. Now, couldn t help remem- bering, to save my life, that this man bought five barrels of brown sugar at the opening of the maple molasses sea son. So l wrote him note, suggesting that advocacy of pure food measure seemed odd from q man who bought five barrels of brown sugar before be- ginning the manufacture of his pure maple syrup.
 "Never feazed him. He turned my letter over and wrote on the back: T know it, but l want the law to make me do right. ''-Indanapolis News.

The Raven Superstition

King Edward s meeting with the Elm peror Francis Joseph at Ischi recalls the many sorrows of the older royalty. The many misfortunes which haze befalleu the Hapsburgs have often been fore told by the "hird of evil, " the raven, and the emperor has, therefore, a iusti fable horror of that bird. When his majesty accepted the Austrian crown a flight of ravens passed over Olmutz. and sent shiver through his support CTS. Before the ill-fated Maximilian started for Mexico raven followed him and his wife through the grounds of their castle of Miramar, and huttered on the princess train. When King AL fonso s mother, then m archduchcss, left her native country for Spain ra- ven escorted her to the railway. More remarkable still, huge raven flew into the face of the late Empress Elizabeth the day before she was murdered at Geneva.-P. T. o. Weekly.
