ception was given in his honor to

shaking him warmly by the hand,
said:

A cautious Judge.

Some years ago there Was trial
for murder in Ireland in which the
evidence was SO palpably insufficient
that the judge stopped the case and
directed the jury to return a verdict
of Not guilty"
"A well-known lawyer, however. who
wished to do something for the fee
he had received for the defense,
claimed the privilege Of addressing
the court.
Well hear with pleasure, Mr.. b."
said the Judge; .'but. to prevent accl-
dent, we'll first acquit the prisoner. 3

The Simplicity

The Overlands operate by pedal
control, so the, hands have nothing to
do but steer. One goes forward or
backward, fast or slow, simply by
pushing pedals. A child can master
the car in ten minutes.
The Qverlands are free from COM
plexities: "A novice can run them and
care for them. One Of these cars has
run 1000 miles without stopping the
engine. n
In the Government Postal Service
Overlands have run Is miles a day
