Tilted When She Loses Beard.

An unusual suit, involving a wom-
an endowed with a beard, has just
been decided by the French courts.
The woman was engaged to be mar
tled, and thinking her fance would
like her better if her face was like
that of other women, she entered in
20 a contract with a face specialist,
who agreed to remove every hair.
He did so, but scars and marks were
left on the woman's chin. Whether
1t was because Of this was not
brought out, but the engagement vas
broken off. The woman %thereupon
sued the specialist for damages. The
question whether her looks had suf-
Tered was submitted to an expert.
This was his judgment: "a compari-
son of the present condition of Mile.
KS ph%ysiognomy with that shown in
3 photograph taken in 1904 leads to
the undoubted conviction that the
woman's face now presents a far
more agreeable expression than at
that time. At all events 1t is far
more feminine looking" The judge
decided against the woman.-New

Knew, But Had Forgotten.

Many stories are current in legal
circles regarding former Judge W.
T. Wallace, n of the best-knowI
jurists in the history Of San Francis
co, but here is a new one, vouched
for by "Billy" Barnes, at n time
District Attorney.
Wallace was examining a candidate
for admission to the bar. All ques'
lions had been satisfactorily an
swered and the lawyer to be had
passed so brilliantly that Wallace de-
cided to put a simple question tc
terminate the ordeal. Gazing be-
nignly at the young man, he asked!
What Is the liability of a common
CARRIER"
The fedgling calmly eyed the
Judge and at last solemnly replied:
"Your honor, I must beg you tc
withdraw the question. I did kno"
the answer, but, unfortunately, ]
have forgotten"
For a minute Wallace eyed the
young man; then, turning to the law
yers who were grouped around him.
remarked:
Gentlemen, this is q sad case; II
fact, a calamity. The only man liv'
ing who ever knew the liability of q
common carrier has forgotten."-

HOW TO WIN ONES SONS
Boys Like to Discover That Father

I remember two brothers who
played on our college baseball team,
says Charles Francis Read In The
Delineator.. The father was a retired
Presbyterian minister, with a grave
face that looked very much as II he
might be repeating to himself the
longer Catechism, but every game
found him right out in front Of the
widest crowd Of rooters, and he
stayed there, standing up the great
er part Of the time, with hts eyea
glued to every play until the last
man was out. I can't remember that
his expression changed ~perceptibly
when Bob struck out, Or Ed hit Il
out for two bases, but he was right
there all the time, and the boys
knew that his eye was on them every
minute, and the knowledge lifted
them along to the end of the game.
Afterwards they heard the other fell
lows call him a good old sport, and
that again lifted them along still
more. There Is nothing that tickles
the boy more than to feel that the
old man has sporting blood In him.

The Observation-Disclosures Woman's

of not having and eve having had
an American woman member. 1t was
founded years ago by a native Bo-
hemian who had spent several years
in a Western city. On returning to
his native land he, assisted by his
wife, founded a club in which they
adopted certain American ideas, es-
pecially in relation to women. They
called it the Observation-Disclosures
Woman's Club and on their death

Besides serving as a clubhouse this
building now contains a free circulat-
