to ask for new trial. During the

he was lumberman and knew all
about wood. The jurors became inter-

The De Jones back lawn was a lawn
in name only. 1t was really an arid
desert-bald, so to speak-and in dry
weather it was always as dusty as

Mrs. De Smythe, who lived next door,
she one day saw her devoted husband
turning the garden hose upon the De

sure I wouldn't trouble to lay the dust
in the De Jones' back yard, John, es-
pecially as they are such a hateful lot
of gossips. Small thanks You'll get for
your trouble anyway"
Hubby turned to his better half with
a smile which told of mixed pleasure
and yindictigeness.

French Superstitions.

deaths and funerals are all but num-

driving, you will have an accident be-
fore your drive is over unless you turn

route for Monte Carlo will not gamble
that day if he meets a funeral. Others
will bet only at rouge ct noir and per-
sistently on the black. The peasants
have at least a hundred superstitions
about bees. They believe (and did not

his contemporaries that bees are bred
