that the Judge In the following story,

The case occurred some forty
years ago. A workman claimed TO
have lost the sight Of his left eye in
an explosion. There was no doubt
about the explosion, and there was no
doubt that the workman's eye had
been injured but the physicians
claimed that he could see out OF II,
while he stoutly declared that the
sight was utterly destroyed.
The judge heard all the evidence
pro and con. Then. sending the work
man from the court room. he said:
Get a blackboard and write a sem
tence on il with chalk. Also get a
pair of spectacles with ordinary clear
glass for the left eye and with red
glass for the right. This. in the course
of an hour or SO was done. Then the
workman was brought back. and he
was ordered to put the queer glasses
on. He put them on and the judge
said to him:

As q sequel to the accident, John Ne

accident happened. and deliberately
pointed a rifle of similar character at
his foot and pulled the trigger. McSor-

ENGLISH KING
SPORTSMAN
New English Ruler a Lover
of Outdoor
Life.

The new reign has already given q
hllip to Highland shooting. The king
as one of the crack shots of society
possibly the best after the Marquis Of
Ripon-wiu spend the autumn in Scot
land instead of going TO a continental
watering place, and smart society Will
have TO follow him and do what he does.
The rentals of shOOtings have gone up
with rush, and there will be a revival
of Oldtime sport and fashionable enter
tanning in the north during August and
September. Nature has alphabetically
welcomed the sportsman king all the
way from Inverness and Perthshire to
Yorkshire, Norfolk and Hampshire.
Never have there been better pros
poets for an all-arOund game season.
The rains have been deferred until the
young grouse have been able TO take
care of themselves, and the mOOrs are
now swarming with them. Partridge
nests contain as many as fifteen or
eighteen eggs, and coveys of excep-
tional size are promised. Pheasants al
ways do well when there are outdoor
men to look after the cOops, and this
year the wild birds In the glens OF
Perthshire and other Scottish counties
have honored the king by arranging
big broods. There will be a great
abundance OF ground game for sports
men who like mixed bags. and even the
stays in the deer forests are unusu-
gether, there will be more shooting and
less golf during the long autumn, and
the impoverished landowners are likely
to increase their bank accounts.
The King has revived the custom of
an early morning canter in Rotten Row.
Rising early, he prepares himself for
the arduous work of the day by mount
ing his favOrtte horse and taking an
hours ride. The rumor that he is 10

another run, and Rotten Row will
again become one Of the brilliant spec

and enjoy himself like an oldtime Eng
door life. the rattle of the guns. maneu-
element of genuine sport on the mOOrs,
