Man Carefully Preserves New Straw

Time Out.

Every year when | get my new
straw hat to start the season with |

weather is the least bit threatening

of a shower, or if the wind is east

Of unsettled weather / don't wear
the straw, for l don't want to get it
wet. Once wet it is never the same.
"And then on some day whereof
the morn is serene and sunny and
there is not the slightest sign Of any
sort Of weather l put my new hat
on and wear it, not SYSTEMATICALLY

as sure as fate on that same after

The great baseball players wife

ly persuaded her to view one in
which NE was to play. He was do
ing his best, Of course. One strike
had been called on him and, as usual
in baseball anecdotes, two men were
out and the bases were full. Our
hero was gathering his strength for
the swat he was going to give the
ball. And the ball came. He knew
it was his as the ball started, and
with a mighty crack he lifted it into
space. Dropping his bat, he sped for
first, and ere the roar of applause
burst out, a slight woman in the
grandstand rose and called: "Will,

NOSES IN JAPAN.

The nose Plays a very important
part in Japan, owing, probably, to
the fact that a difference in noses
constitutes about the only distinc-
ton between one japanese and an
other. The nose is the only feature
which attracts attention. AS there are
very few large noses to be found in
Japan, lady with a large nose is
regarded as one specially gifted by
nature. She is invariably reigning
beauty and the envy of her less IA
vored sisters. In all Japanese pic
lures in which ladies are portrayed
the artists are particularly careful to
make thu nose Of liberal dimansiaas.

ORIGIN OF An EXPRESSION
IF This Court Knows Heroslf, end
She Thinks She Do"

IF This Court Knows Herself. and
She Thinks She Do"
We frequently hear the expression,
'If the court. knows Itself. and It
thinks It does" but few persons are
aware Of the origin thereof.
The individual who gave birth to It
was q Pike county Missourian named
Blackburn, who flourished In the west
many years ago. Blackburn ran away
from home when he was q mere boy
and sought his fortune In the west,
where he grew to manhood n an In
dian fighter, hunter. trapper and
mountain guide. Although not an ed
ucated man, he was possessed Of great
acumen. to which was united q keen
wit. When gold was discovered In
California, Blackburn was one Of the
first to proceed thither. The miners
as q sort Of joke elected him alcalde;
an Office that combined the duties of
mayor and justice Of the peace. The
first case coming before the new al
calde was that Of a gambler who while
udu IIuOCu uAo uOASC VsSA q

OUsly injured.
The trial took place In the largest
cabin In the neighborhoOd. The gam

counsel to defend him. Alcade Black
burn called the young woman to the
witness stand. She told straight
forward, honest story. When she had
finished the alcalde peremptOrily end

PENDANT protested vigorously. but the
alcalde disposed Of his protest thus:
IF this court knows herself. and she
thinks she do, fine you $500 damages
and assess upon you the cost Of putin
this young woman I'm good condition"
When asked what he meant by
good condition" the alcalde replied
that the gambler must pay the doctors
bills and all other costs of the young
woman's sickneSs.-Exchange
