Curious Law Treatises

From the National Magazine
When the papal see was removed to
Avignon, In the early part of the four
teenth century, the italian jurists who
accompanied him were greatly sought
after by French clerics who desired to
perfect themselves in the law. Curious
treatises were issued for this purpose.
In which supposed causes were traced
through all the phases of pleading and
trial. The supposed parties were all
biblical or religious worthless, and Abra-
ham, Isaac and Jacob Moses, Solomon.
the prophets, the saints, and even the
Virgin Mary, figured as officers, wit
nesses, advocates and parties to the suit.
One treatise purported to be a record OF
The Cause of Satan with the Holy Viz
gin, Jesus Being Judge, and another
was entitled, Cause of Lucifer VS.. Je-
sus, Solomon Being Judge" Later. when
the Iaity began to pay more attention TO
the study of the law which had previ-
ously been largely in the hands of eccle-
siastics, more attractive titles were CIV

BY S. MAYS BALL

Roman Doubleday. little, Brown q
Coz
Mr.. Roman Doubleday has written a
first-class detective story and they must
be difficult to produce, if we are to judge
by the machine-made lot we usually get.
Here's thanks then, to Mr. Doubleday.
No one should tell too much of detec-
tive story, its plot, or spoil the prospective
readers interest. and that would be too
much. Nevertheless, it can be said that
Street" deals with a man who no sooner
jumps into the game. so to speak, that he
finds himself plunged into the mystery
that surrounds the family of one of the
leading residents of the city he is then
himself occupying, as it were.
For years, either the head of this FAM
lily or his son has been popularity supposed
to be responsible for long series of mis-
deeds. sometimes criminal and always
devilish.
The mystery, the suspicion and the
consequent alienation in which this
strange family have lived have strongly
developed their separate characters in
different ways, and Mr.. Doubleday shows
that up finely
This stranger. who has come to town
and got himself mixed in this mystery
sets himself to work to clear the fan1ilys
honor and many curious and more than
startling things happen before that
stranger succeeds. finally, with results
quite ceverly hidden until the very last
of the book. really, that is is likely to
warm up even tired-out, read em-every-
day book-buyer.

sizes are recommended only on cars
where the tires are overloaded. Properly
loaded 5-inch Diamond or other tires will
not skid any more readily than properly
loaded 41a-inch tires. Skidding is infiu-
enced very much more by the relation of
the power transmitted by the rear wheels
to the weight which these wheels are
carrying than by the size of the tires.
This is shown by the fact that the car
which has the least rear axle load skids
most readily.
"On the other hand it Is doubtless true
that a large tire wastes more power than
a small one. This waste of power will
be particularly noticeable on hills. A
car will climb hill faster on 3-inch tires
than on 5-inch tires. But the waste of
power is not at all in direct ratio to the
size of the tire and is hardly noticeable
in a comparison of 4h-inch tires and s.
inch tires. WI
IAN increase of diameter however,

would on high gear. negotiate given
hill with difficulty at 20 miles per hour
on 34x4h-inch tires would probably not
be able to go up at all If 35x41a-inch tires
were substituted.
For ordinary work large tires on the
front wheels present no greater difficult
ties in steering, but in the case of racing
cars running at extreme speeds small
tire handles better than large one.
From the point of economy, tires of
larger diameter will develop more
mileage at given cost. Increases in the
cross sectional size are unquestionably
very profitable, therefore, in cases where
an overloaded tire is replaced by one oil
adequate size In such cases the average
mileage secured repays the difference in
cost several times over"

Keek on Growing

when l began on this job it was diff
cult but have mastered it after long
struggle. 1t comes easy to me now
1 said to him:
Then 1t is about time you were try
ing more difficult task. is it not?'
After a. moments though he replied:
IT hadn't thought of that I was set
Ting down comfortably in this work. But
1 cannot say l am exactly contented, be-
cause I realize I can do better work. I
see what you mean You think man
ought to keep on growing"
That was precisely the point.
He was comparatively a young man and
had not nearly developed his full ability
to do things. The fact that his ability
to do difficult things had caught up
with the requirement of his task was
proof that his powers were growing.
When a difficult duty becomes easy.
select a more responsible one. That is
the only way to grow.
One of the chief pleasures of life is
the Joy of accomplishment. And when
one comes to realize that he can do
things he once thought to be beyond
his powers he rejoices as strong man
to run a race. He feels himself to be
growing. alx.SLs
Where do the forces come from?
growth, whether 1t be of the wheat or
of the tree or of the mind, will always
be mystery. We know only the facts
of growth, not the why.
To ILLUSTRATED
Darwin tells us that the first eagle
couldn't fly but it wanted to fly and
tried to fly. Generations of eagles wanted
and tried to fly until through, the mys-
FERROUS processes of evolution the eagle
developed pinions and powers-and flew.
So of the human capacity.
Desire and trial long continued will
develop inherent faculties or even new
powers-powers and faculties undream-
ed of-until finally the man is able to do
the things he wants to do and be the
things he wants to be.
Nothing Is better settled by modern
psychology than that fact.
Keep on growing. Select the hard task.
When you have mastered one try an
other that is more difficult and master
that.
Be bold enough to follow the lines of
development of your growing powers. To
do so spells both success and satisfac-
tion. Because
While your vigor lasts your joy of do
ing will last.
Keep on growing.
Nothing in all the universe, here or here
after-I say 1t reverenty-not even God
himself can stand between the soul that
grows and it's successful destiny

1T also will have the largest wheat crop
1t has had In several years, and other
crops will be larger than for a long time
The weather conditions have been just
right for the cotton planters. A year
ago We had not had sufficient rain to
make a crop, but this season the condi
lions could not have been better, AMI
with two or three more rains | look for
g record cotton crop in the Lone Star
<state. Last year we produced little
more than half a crop, but as the grow
ers received good prices there was not
much complaint heard. But they would
much rather have a big crop with lower
prices. | look for the cotton crop this
year to exceed 100000 bale. The crop
already has been made in the southwest
erE portion of the state, where the plants
are three to four weeks ahead of those In
teh northern part. They grow about one
third of the cotton crop in that part of
the state. AS for wheat, I look for pro
duction of several million bushels more
than the crop of last year
Politics is warming up in the state
and there is the liveliest interest in the
campaign for the democratic gubernato
rial nomination. While i am not a poll
tician. I take an interest In political af-
fairs, and 1t Is my guess that former A..
the nomination.
Davidson is making an aggressive
campaign, and is winning votes, l think.
His position on the temperance question
Is that of local option advocate. If it
were left to the people to decide,
think eTxas would vote for statewide
prohibition, for there is very great ma
jority of the counties that are already
dry I do not believe, however, that tn
people will have a chance to vote on this
question, because the legislature cannot
be induced to pass bill submitting 1t to
the people"
Big as New York is, it seems absurd to
say that there are men here who make
their living by poaching. Yes, by regu-
lar old-fashioned story book poaching--
catching rabbits, birds and small game
with snares.
This fact was brought out in a recent
police court case. where three detectives
brought into a court a man whom they
had caught in the very act of sharing a
rabbit in Bronx park.
1t developed that there are a number
of men who do nothing else but hunt in
the parks, making somewhat precarious
living by selling their illegally captured
game.
Sounds odd In connection with Broad
way, doesn't It? But It's true.

Patsy Donovan

In Patsy Donovan, the Boston Red Sox
have a poor manager. That is, Donovan
has never met with much success as a
manager and his reputation in that de-
partment is not what others have been.
But many think DonovaC was the victim
of i'll luck, rather than being incapable
of guiding team.
The old Pirate outfielder has good
bunch at Boston this year and If the
club ever gets out of the second division,
unless extraordinary reverses present
themselves, Patsy will have thoroughly
demonstrated that as the man behind
he is really nil. -. % = - ssTs= =
Donovan succeeded Ned Hanlon as
manager of the Brooklyn club after the
great Baltimore leader had definitely
shown he had a hoodoo he could not fight
off. But apparently the hoodoo was with
Brooklyn as much as with Hanlon, for
Donovan found it impossible to shape a
winning club, although he had some good
material. Probably his best work was in
1906, when the steered the Superbas from
last to sixth place, beating out Cincinnati.
Donovan was formerly a great player,
having played a star game in right field
for Pittsburg several years ago.
Donovan succeeded Connie Mack as
manager of the Pittsburg club and it
was he who gathered together the stars
who later won the three successive clAu,-
pionships for Smoke Town.
