Have to Know Exact Shade of Mean
ing In Words and Phrases.
"Some people seem to think that an
important legal document can be
drawn up by lawyer in the time 1t
rakes his client to smoke cigar" re-
marked a gray haired law clerk the
other day. 1T takes time and the
most scrupulous care to get things
Just right If lawyers were not care
full the Lord only knows where the
clients would land.
"Why, ] know a man In one OF the
great law offices who is a specialist In
tho exact shade of meaning Of each
word or phrase used in legal docu-
ment. Nothing goes out Of that Office
without being submitted first to him
to pass upon. Sometimes he will give
a week to the study Of but one short
but very important paper. theorizing
as to the possibilities Of its meaning
being construed this way and that.
When he gets through with docu-
ment, however, and has submitted ev-
cry word of It to the acid test there Is
practically no chance Of its not being
exactly right, as to its verbiage at
least. In some cases, too, 1t Is deemed
desirable by clients to becloud the
meaning of contract 50 that there Is
q loophole for its being construed In
another way In the event Of certain
contingencies occurring. That Is
where the services Of an expert word
juggler are indispensable.
1.-THE biggest case that ever heard
of In this line was when one Of the
great corporations wished to issue
some mortgage bonds against its prop
erty. A long contract had to be drawn,
and the wording on the back Of the
bond had to be decided upon. The
matter was so important that, after
the attorneys themselves had decided
on the forms to be used, 1t was turned
over to two Of these experts in YER
biage.
~rhey looked up the dictionary
meaning of practically every WORD
used in the two documents and made
! innumerable changes and suggestions.
Before the papers were finished thirty
different drafts Of each of the two
documents had been made, and there
was not word used In the final form
Of the papers that had not been con-
sidered carefully, not only as to its
individual meaning, but also as to its
individual relation to the other words
Of the phrase or sentence containing
II. It Is safe to say that these two
documents are never likely to be as
sailed successfully In a court Of law
and that they mean exactly what the
corporation and its counsel wished
them to mean."-New York Press

The 'spure food law" is designed by
the Government to protect the public
from injurious ingredients in both foods
and drugs. 1t is beneficial both to the
public and to.the conscientious manufac-
turer. Ely's Cream Balm, successful
remedy for cold in the head, nasal ca
tarrh, hay fever, etc, containing no in
furious drugs, meets fully the require
ments of the new law, and that fact is
prominently stated on every package. 1t
contains none of the injurious drugs which
are required by the law to be mentioned
on the label Hence you can use 1t safely.

Ereedom of the Press.

The battle for a free press in the
full modern sense was fought out be-
tween 1854 and 1771, beginning with
the prosecution of Wilkes for attack
ing Butte in the North Briton and end
ing with the successful resistance to
the proclamation by which the com
mons had forbidden the publication of
their debates, Six printers who had
infringed the proclamation were sum
moned to the bar of the house. Five
obeyed, and the messenger of the
house was sent to arrest the sixth
The lord mayor sent the messenger to
prison. The house of commons sent
the lord mayor to the Tower but he
was released at the next Propagation,
and the day on which he left the Tower
marked the end of the last attempt to
silence the press.-New York Amer1-

Tho Bite Of a Doc.

hydrophobia, said physician. "WheI
an animal bites through clothing there
Is little or no danger Of infection. The
virus Is on the teeth of the animal and
when the person bitten has received
the wound through a layer of clothinl
there is little danger.
''The virus on the teeth is left in the
clothing and is not communicated tC
the person bitten. Rabid dogs or other
animals are not like reptiles. They
have no hollow teeth through which
poison may be communicated. 1t must
be introduced directly into the system
Of the victim.
Therefore, when supposedly rabid

an exposed part of the body he should
have no fear."-Washington Post.

Hay on Church Floor.

A curious custom is annually observ-
ed at Old Neston church on st. .Swith-
ms day. The church is dedicated to
st. Swithin, and on festival day the
church is strewn with hay. Many
years ago some donor left a field to
provide money for bread which Is dis.
tributed four times year. The tenant
of the field has to supply the hay to
strew the church. The custom is sup
posed to have originated from the fact
that on festival Sunday the parishion
ers wear new boots, and the idea of the
donor was to have the hay laid down
to stop the squeaking incidental to new
footwear.-London Standard.

planning the balloon.
Instead of the usual basket, the aero
nauts will occupy a twelve foot motor
boat While in the air propeller to

ordinary propeller will be attached.

BISHOP is INTERESTED

Sioux Falls, S. D.. Oct. 3-The Rev.
George c. Ware, formerly rector OF
Episcopal churches at Lead and other
places in western South Dakota, and
who is now serving term In the Hall
county Jail at Grand Island. Neb., for
land frauds, will complete his term and
be released about November l next.
and an effort will be made to get him
pardon and restore his citizenship.
He formerly was president of the |.
B. U. Land and Cattle Company of
Hooker county, Neb., having become
interested in the company while acting
as rector of the Episcopal church at
Lead. He was convicted in the United
States court for Nebraska of conspir-
acy In seeking to defraud the United
States government out of several tracts
of land in Hooker and Thomas coun-
ties, Neb., by means of fraudulent fl
ings
He was sentenced to to pay a fine OF
81 600 and serve term of one year in
the Douglas county (Neb.D Jail. the
place of imprisonment afterward hav-
| ing been changed to Hall county. He
appealed the case to the federal court
of appeals, which affirmed the judy
ment Of the lower court. He has been
| in jail since December IL. 1907.
The prisoner was allowed reduc-
ton OF five days per month out Of his
| sentence for good behavior, which will
reduce his sentence sixty days.
The Rt. Rev. William Hobart Hare,
OF Sioux Falls. Episcopal bishop OF
South Dakota, who is a sincere and
loyal friend of the prisoner, and who
believes he was the victim of circurn-
stances, has interested himself in the
case of his former friend, and 1t Is
likely that Bishop Hare will personall-
ly make an application to President
| Roosevelt for . pardon In the case. !.
