HER EXCELLENT JUDGMENT.
The Young Woman Gave Evidence OF
II in Rejecting ChumP's Pro-
posal.

Crossing one foot over the other
with the air of settling down TO stay
indefinitely, the young man with the
high caliar remarked. II there's one
thing 1 believe, it is that a man

you agree with me-
Yes. indeed" said the young wO-

The young man coughed. We'll. OF

It's a lottery. you know said the
young woman. He might possibly hit
upon the right one accidentally Such
things have been known t. happen"
Il don't believe in being reckless
said the young man. Il believe in
knowing what you are doing.
Going back to my first remark he
went on. don't you think woman
should always depend upon her nus
bands Judgment and wait for his de-
cision in everything"
That depends said the young wo-
man. IF the house were burning
down and she didn't know whether to
waste time telephoning the fire de-
partmcnt or to run out on the street
and yell for help. she might be burned

him as to what she should do. He
might have gone fishing or something.
You see, there are times when wo-
man really has to think for herself"
That" said the young man in an
annoyed tone, lis an extreme case.
Such an exception might not occur in
a lifetime l am afraid you are not
especially interested in what am

"On the contrary. | am greatly in

Your views are at once novel and
entertaining
"They shouldn't be novel" said the
young man. The world would be
happier and better conducted if every
one shared them. In the first place
why should any woman marry a man
whom she did not feel was her su-
perior in intelligence and on whom
she could rely implicitly"
Dear me-" said the young woman.

FIX FINAL HEARING OF
FORD AND PANHARD CASES
July 10 Set for Decision on Inter
Iocutory Decree

At a we'll attended meeting of the
Association of Licensed Manufacturers
yesterday, it was reported that the
final hearing on the interloutory de-
cree before Judge HOugh in the Ford
and Panhard cases has been definitely
fixed for the morning of July 10. The
testimony on both sides in the supple
mental bills and answers has been
closed, and now only awaits the hear
ing of the application for the entry of
DEGREES.
Aside from routine business. there
was a general discussion of trade con
ditions. which showed a continuance
of the healthy demand for motor cars,
which are now such an essential part
of American life, and particularly a
strong demand for freight-carrying
cars. Reports and figures of the man
ufacturers indicated very clearly the
reason why bankers and railroad men
have been decrying the buying and
using of automobiles, as the motor car
builders say that many people are buy
ing cars now instead of putting their
money in Wall street stocks with their
usual uncertainty.
The executive committee of the asso-
citation held it's meeting on Tuesday,
while there was also a meeting Of the
directors of Association Patents com
pany, at which Alfred Reeves was
elected secretary and treasurer in the
place of Cocker f. Clarkson, who re-
signed to become secretary of the Sc
ciety of Automobile Engineers.

the high mechanical standards Of
European practice. He is particularly
attracted by the ball-beanng engine
and transmission OF the Krit. Baron
Van der Moot was a former school

The doctor was skillful man, and
consequently had large practice. IL
was very disagreeable to him to be so

opportunity of letting the lady see
this. One day the lady observed a red

Aged Husband Almost Starved as He

New York-Beside his dying wife,
Virginia, James Raymond, 70 years
old, lsnelt in hall bedroom in Bath
Beach. For three days he had re-
NAMED there. There was no medicine.
no money, no food. At times 1t was

threadbare overcoat to keep her
warm.
For so years this man and woman

gether. On Christmas day he wanted
to go in search of work, but she
begged him to remain. She knew that
it was her last Christmas. All day and
all night he held her in his arms while
the fever took her back to earlier holt
days when there was plenty at their
command. For three days he held her.
At few minutes past three o'clock
in the morning she died, but the hus.
band did not know that. He had
slipped from the chair to his knees and
was praying. Thus he remained until
seven o'clock before he realized that
his wife's life had fed.
Then his brave old spirit broke. He
cid not wish TO tell his landlady the
truth, though she had permitted him
to remain in the room after his money
had gone. lie tottered to the Bath
Beach police station and begged Lieut..
Kennedy to help him. The lieutenant
sent for a physician, who took Ray

him in the house before informing the
coroner.
When wagon from the morgue
backed up to the house to take the
body away the aged man left his bed.
AS the body was borne out he followed
to the sidewalk, begging piteously to
be taken along. He borrowed five
cents from Mrs. Bates, the landlady,
and went to the morgue to remain at
the side of his wife.
He refused to leave the place until
the morgue keeper told him they
would hold the body for three days
in order that he might get money with
which to bury his wife instead of see
