Complied With the Law.

A certain we'll known Mobile lawyer,
who was lame and had something Of
a reputation as a fighter, was at one
time attorney in q suit that caused
much i'll feeling. He won the suit for
his client, and the loser vowed venge-
ance. "In pursuance of that same" in
the language of Truthful James, he
one day went into the lawyers Office
and subjected him to a TRADE of abuse
that would have caused a salt water
captain to die from pure envy, such
was his talent in vituperation.
The lawyer answered him nothing,
to the surprise of two or three men
who were present, but, getting out Of
his chair, began to hobble backward.
His enemy, thinking he was retreat
ing, followed him up, with more abuse
and threatening gestures. The law
yers foot finally struck against the
wall, when he suddenly Strengthened
up and, saying Gentlemen, l call on
you to witness that on account of this:
wall l have retreated as far as possi-
ble' the general law Of homicide),
drew out q Derringer and shot his op-
ponent.
At the trial he was acquitted, his
witnesses being the men present at
the time of the killing, who testified to
the lawyers having retreated as far
as possible.

The Fate of tho Fancy Set,

James, aged seven, had been pro-
noted. In recognition of this great
event his father purchased for him the
following things that James insisted
were necessary:
A box Of one dozen pencils, assorted
leads; one ink and one pencil eraser,
one pencil box with a marvellous roll
top, three copyb/oks for home work,
two penholders and patent strap that
was a marvel Of ingenuity, but some
how or other didn't seem to hold the
books very firmly.
The father examined the outfit few
days after and found that it con-
tanned
One much chewed lead pencil fur
nished by the city, scribbling pad
with few sheets on it, tin fountain
pen that did not work and never could
have worked and a skate strap to hold
the things together.
The father asked no questions. He
instin&tively knew what had become
of the fancy implements Of education.

A Methodical Beinu.

A man of method who attended to
everything OH schedule time, whether
1t was work or recreation, had the
fortune to fall in love when he had
passed the age of forty. The mistress
of his heart put up with his oddities.
He had regular nights for calling upon
her, regular hours for coming and
going, regular theater and club nights,
etc. In fact, she looked upon his regu-
larity as something admirable.
Things had been going on In this
way for two years, and finally the
great crisis came. They were to be
married. The day was fixed, the we'd
ding clothes were made, the guests in
vited, and the minister was engaged.
At the appointed time they were all
assembled. The bride was dressed, the
wedding presents were displayed, but
the bridegroom came not. The bride
wept and tainted. but it did no good.
Finally some friends of the delinquent
groom hurried away to see if he could
be found. He could. He ssls at home
in his room. reading as unconcernedly
as If he had never contemplated get
ting married.
"What. is the matter? Why don't
you come to your wedding?" shouted
his friends.
e. The man Of regular habits laid down
his book.
II am"very sorry" he said, "but this
is my regular day for staying at home
and reading. forgot it when l made
the engagement. The wedding will
have to be postponed ."-London Tit

Young's lmpromptu.

To most persons Edward Young is

nothing more, but he was also man
Of the world and shrewd and caustic
wit as we'll as the rector of St. Marys

1t was there in the garden Of the rec
tory that he composed some Of the best
impromptu verses known. He was
walking with two ladies when some
one summoned him to the house. His
companions were agreeable, and he
was in no haste to leave them. Turn
ing as he reached the gate, he said:
Thus Adam looked when from the garden

And thus disputed orders sent from

who handles pure drugs and obtain SO

and If the itching stops at once and
the trouble is cured in few days it
may be set down as having been &C.
