LAWYERS IN GERMANY,
They Cannot Advertise, and Their Fees
Are Fixed by Law


The German law fixes the exact fees
which Il German attorney has 10 Claim
for all kinds of professional work. and
the rechtsanwalt can charge neither
more nor less.
These fees apply to all matters Of
the civil code and of criminal cases
The amount. according to the Greer,
Bag. depends exclusively on the value
of the object of contention
1t is an old though still nnfulfillod
wish of German lawyers to have a
new fixed list of fees, not made after
the old and low standard Of the year

His position in society Is between

Mr.. Standish was mad when he went
into the millinery establishment. and
the longer he stayed the mhader he
got. Presently he walked over To
stunning black creation that hung oil
peg near the window and said.
This is the hat | want to see YOU
about"
The proprietor came forward
..What can | do for YOU be asked
You can fix this hat over the way
my wife asked you to. said Staudish
explosiyey. she wants the feather
put on the other side. that DO ~ moved
10 the front. and she wants the rim
to bulge IA little more over the tenn
pies.
Seeing a guilty flush creep over the
proprietor's face. Standish went on
with increased heat:
She says you have refused to make
any alterations on the sfOuid that ii
stitch added TO or subtractea from the
hat is bound to ruin il, but tell you
that's all nonsense. My wife knows
how she wants her hat to look. and If
she can't stand up for her rights III do
1t for her. She is coming around this
afternoon to try the hat on again. Ii
it isn't ready by that time here will
be no end of a row"
The proprietor twirled the black hat
on his forefinger and looked from 1t to
the head saleswoman lugubriously.
81 remember" he said. that the lady
who ordered that hat did bring it back
yesterday to be remodeled Perhaps it
will be possible to make the altera-
tons suggested after ALL"
The managers humility made Stand
ish feel very proud of himself.
That's the only way to deal with
| those fellows" he said when he left
the shop. you've got to meet them on
| their own level. 1t takes a man to do
| that. No wonder women get cheated
| out of their very eyeteeth. They
| haven't got sand enough to say the
things that have to be said to secure
their rights"
| Throughout the day Sta1dish con

and he actually went home half an

hat had been metamorphoseh into the

hat all right?'

OLD WINDOW GLASS
CURES WINDOW ONES

Philadelphia.-A discovery of great
value to those whose sight has been
impaired by working under articifial
light has been made in this city. It
was learned that amethyst tinted
lenses made from window zane glass
taken from houses in Walnut street,
would cure blindness caused by work
ing on bright metal and under artifi-
cial light. This glass is simply ordi-
nary window panes that have been in
use for more than rs years. In that
time it has been turned an amathyst
tint by the direct rays of the sun.
Philadelphia eye specialists are
optimistic in their contentious for the
glass, which is termed by the oculists
the Philadelphia glass" Some of
the most widely known physicians in
the city are using it in Their daily
practice and say that it has proved
wonderfully effective, and that the
eye disorders hat it will relieve and
cure are many.
