Dr.. RuhI Gets Service Fee.

A very interesting lawsuit took place
before Esquire Fisher on Monday when
DR. f. P. Ruhl, a veterinary Of Mil.
fold, appeared as plaintiff against Paul
Joseph of near Georgetown. The case
involved the liability Of person who
phoned for the services of a veterinary
TO perform an operation on a horse.
The operation was performed before
the time when the veterinary agreed to
be present to perform the operation,
and no notification had been received
by DR.. Ruhl until he was sixteen miles
on his journey to the farm Of the said
Paul Joseph, where he had been sum-
mOned. The father Of Mr.. Joseph had
asked a friend to phone or write to DR..
Ruhl, but by reason Of the friend ne.
glecting so to do, he drove to George
town before being informed that the
operation had been performed. He
then drove to the home Of the father
John d. Joseph, there saw the son, and /
his fee Of $3.50, which had /
been reduced from $500 by reason Of
bis having another call in the imme.
iiate neighbOrhood. Mr.. Joseph refused
70 pay this amount and hence the suit
which resulted in judgment in favor

to the Passion Play, is it not.
Children followed Roxie in
troops wherever she appeared
with the Baby. RoXie was
mistress of the universal lam
guage of childhood; singing,
dancing, sporting, with the
Baby, she was made happy by
the flocks of laughing little
Bavarians that pressed about
her. "Cla' TO goodness, Miss

from the banks along the railroad, the calm noun

smiled encouragingly up into Marys distressed eyes
and dropped off into peaceful sleep, from which he
did not awaken until the train stopped at Oberam

NOTHING was going in Oberammergau when
~ the American Baby arrived. On Sunday the
Passion Play had been played before five thousand
travellers gathered from the whole world; Monday
an overflow play had been given for those not able
to get seats for Sunday. Then the village had set

in Oberan1mergau at this dull season, else for one
time he might have missed his wonted Difference.
But the American Baby was born lucky when he was
born abroad. From Tuesday until Saturday he was
the most talked of person in Oberammergau.
"Those crazy Americans! They stop at nothing!
the laughing word that went round the village.
"A beautiful and oh rich American girl has come

image OF the Virgin roDed In
blue that stood in a small
stalactitic grotto in the noun
tain wall, was not a painted
wooden image, but an ethe-
realized conception of divine
womanhood. The stalactites
that lined the little grotto
above and back of the statue
looked like clouds in the dim
light. The musical low splash,
splash of a little stream that
trickled over the rocks be-
meath the Virgins altar was
the only sound in the noun
tain solitude. The tops of
oak trees met high above, and
made a lofty roof for the little
nature chapel. The moon
beams that sifted through lay
checkered upon the round,
level sod like a marble mosaic.
Censi and her father sat
down on a bench placed by
the pious villagers in front of
the shrine, and dropping to
their knees on a prayer rail
whispered their Ave Marias.
Fraulein Lechner motioned
Marie and Roxie to a bench
behind the supplicants. Mary
leaned forward. her cheek on
her hand, deeply moved by
the associations and the
beauty of the spot. She en-
We'd Censi, who could SO natu-
rally kneel to pray in this little
Temple of Nature. Her own
thoughts were deeply devo-
tional,- in accord with the
