Judge Frederick e. Crane. the
young and brilliant jurist who pre-
sided over the Thornton Hams trial,
has a way of illuminating with an
apt anecdote a point he wishes to
make.
In one of the early cases he SO
brilliantly conducted before his ele-
walton to the bench, Mr.. Crane said
said to an obstinately reticent wit
ness:
s'You seem bent on giving the
court all possib bile trouble, You are
like the man who sat in the dock
one Sunday morning with a bandag-
ed head.
Prisoner said the magistrate
to this man, you are charged with
having been drunk and disorderly.
What say you guilty or not
guilty?'" .s~
g That's wot you're paid to find
OUT growled the prisoner. L

AN INTERESTING PAINT TEST.

There ia a very simple and inter
esting chemical test by which to de-
tect impurity in paint materials
Thousands and thousands OF people
all over the, country are making this
test. 1t is sure way to safeguard
against the many adnlterated white
leads which are on the market, Any
one can make the test-all that is
needed is a simple little instrument
which can be had free by writing Ma
tional Lead Company, 1902 Trinity
Building, New York. and asking for
Houseowners' Painting Outfit No. ~.
The Outfit also includes a book of
color schemes for exterior or interior
painting. or both IL you wish, and a
set of specifications. No houseowncr
should make any arrangements for
painting till he gets this outfit.
One can't expect a satisfactory
painting job without pure white lead.
There is a way to make sure you're
getting pure white lead-without
testing 1t. See that the keg bears
National Lead Company's famous
Dutch Boy Painter trademark. which
is positive guaranteeof purity. Your
dealer probably has this white lead.
Is not let National Lead Company
know.

No woman should submit to a surgi-
cal operation, which may mean death,
until she has given Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, made exclusive
ly from roots and herbs, fair trial.
This famous medicine for women
has for thirty years proved to be the
most valuable tonic and renewer OF
the female organism. Women resid-
ing in almost every city and town il
the United States bear willing testi-
mony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
1t cures female ills, and creates radi-
ant, buoyant female health. If you
are i'll, for your own sake as well as
those you love, give. it trial.

invites all sick women to write
her for advice. Her advice Is free,

purchase the customer received nine
and one-eighth cents worth, instead
of the twelve cepts' worth for which
he paid. Superintendent Reichmann
continues as follows:
"All kinds of tricks are used by
dishonest merchants. Those mer-
chants who are not dishonest inten-
tionally may have faulty scales or Inn
perfect measures of which they know
nothing because they are not tested.
The longer set of scales is used the
worse 1t becomes-for the customer
unless 1t Is tested and repaired. But
the average merchant never will ask
for test If he has to pay fees for
that test, unless his customers COM
plain of him. Now, in some towns
there is the fee system; in others the
municipal sealer of weights and meas
ures has salary and collects fees
which go into the city treasury; in
others, again, there is a straight SAL
airy basis, and no charge is made for
tests. In some cities there is rigid
inspection; in others absolutely none.
Bad Conditions in Syracuse.
eve went to Syracuse@a time ago
and found horrible conditions pre-
vailing. There was municipal de-
partment Of weights and measures,
with a salaried head, who said he
never had done anything much, be-
cause his predecessors never had done
anything but draw their salaries.
Things were stirred up; this superin-
tendent was made to see the error of
his ways, a couple of deputies were
added to his staff. Now that same
man Is one of the most active and
best men In the State. He tells me
that his working day Is limited to
eight hours, but that he wants to
work overtime in getting after viola
tors of the law and does 1t. went
to Yonkers some time ago, and there
was hardly straight weight or pro-
per measure in the town. Now they
have good inspection there, and the
merchants are running pretty much
on the level.
But it's SO easy to beat the game.
How many customers know the differ
ence between dry and liquid meas
ure? Yet If grocer sells a quart of
lima beans, say, in liquid quart
measure, he's stealing about fifteen
per cent. It's very easy for him to
undersell competitors cent or two a
quart on that basis, and thus he
drives them out Of business or into
his own habits. A butcher, say.
keeps several sheets of paper~on his
scales. The paper weighs, perhaps,
an ounce or an ounce and half. 1t
doesn't make much difference on a
ten-pound roast, but on half pound
or pound of meat for the poor woman
it tells heavily. And spring scales
there are as many ways to manipu-
late them as there are makes of
scales..'
"Ail our neighboring States have
good laws. Canada, on our northern
border, has probably the most rigid
law in the world. If an inspector
stops a wagonload of bread and in
the load finds one loaf short weight
he confscates the whole load, gives it
to some charitable institution and
prosecutes the baker. Massachusetts
has probably the best weights and
measures system in the United States:,
Rhode Island has an excellent sys-
tenn; Connecticut now has bill un-
der consideration which seems likely
to pass; New Jersey has good sys-
tenn; Pennsylvania and Ohio, too"

NOT DRUGS
Food Did 1t.

After using laxative and cathartic
medicines from childhood a case of
chronic and apparently incurable con-
stipation yielded to the scientific food,
Grape-Nuts, In few days.
From early childhood 1 suffered
with such terrible constipation that |
had to use laxatives continuously, 60
ing from one drug to another and suf-
fering more or less all the time.
"A prominent physician whom /
consulted told me the muscles Of the
digestive organs were partially par
alyzed and could not perform their
work without help of some kind, so I
shave tried at different times about
every laxative and cathartic known.
but found no help that was at all per-
manent. had finally become dis
couraged and had given my case up
as hopeless when began to use the
pre-digested food, Grape-Nuts.
Although had not expected this
food to help my trouble, to my great
surprise Grape-Nuts digested immedi-
ately from the first, and in few days
was convinced that this was Just
what my system needed.
