, Justice 10 Justice.

Representative Bede of. Minnesota
is among the best Of story tellers, and
his friends regret that he is not often
er in evidence in the cloakrooms, ac.
cording to the New York Times.
Many years, ago there lived in Min
nesota an eccentric justice of the
peace, but who was thoroughly honest
and who tried to do justice in adjudi-
eating differences between his neigh
bors. This old gentleman had a de-
cided hatred for the bubbles Of law
and not infrequently he rendered his
decisions without regard to the Legal
points laid down by eminent jnrists.
In a certain case before him it was
shown that justice was on the side OF
the plaintiff, but that he had slept on
his rights until he had legally lost
them The attorney for the defense
called the Justices attention to this
fact, and cited a decision Of the su-
preme court to sustain him.
"Tf the supreme court made such a
decision it acted wrong said the JUS
tice.
The attorney brought forth volume
after volume and read the authorities,
""You can stop where you are said
the old justice. as h, pulled off and
rubbed his spectacles, for I am satis-
fed thai such a decision was made nv
the supreme court, but I want to say
that If that court sees fit to make a
fool Of itself it IL no reason why
should. It Is my opinion that the su-
preme court is a nuisance-and over
rule its decision on this point and
give judgment for the plaintiff. JUS
tice is justice, sir. in this court!'"

Ne More Need for Fido.-The late
Mrs. Sue Langdon Vaughan, who orig
mated Memorial Day, had always a
great love for humanity and a great
contempt for such things as obstruct-
ed the free play of humanitarianism.
Mrs. Vaughan" said a Washington
veteran, regarded lapdogs as obstruc-
tions to humanitarianism, and she had
no belief in the sincerity of the aver
age society woman's affection for her
lap dog. There's lap dog story she
often used to tell.
"A man-so the story runs-came
down to breakfast one morning to find
his wife in tears.
"'Oh,' she sobbed, what shall 1 do?
Poor little Fido Is i'll and the dog doc
tor says his case is serious. Oh, what
will become of me If anything hap
pens to my precious little Pomera-
nian Fido?'
"The man comforted his wife as
well as he could, and that evening he
came home early in order 10 admins
te, more comfort to her.
ITO his amazement, however, he
found her on his return seated at the
piano singing one Of the gayest airs

THE DYING PINE.
How to Locate Trees Infested by the
Southern Pine Beetle.

According to the expert on forest
insects of the bureau Of entomology,
United States department Of agricul-
ture, the location of trees that are in
tested by the southern pine beetle is
the first and one Of the most import
ant things to do before definite plans
are made for the active work of cut
ting the trees.
Some of the essential things to re-
member are as follows:
! g.. The southern pine beetle attacks
the upper and middle portions of the
trunks Of healthy trees.
b. A freshly attacked tree may
show pitch tubes on the trunk, red
dish boring dust around the base, or
there may be no external evidence OF
attack until the leaves begin to fade.
C. BY the time the tops are faded
and the bark Of the middle and up
per trunk is dead the broods of the
beetles are in an advanced stage OF
development, yet at the same time the
bark on the lower third Of the trunk
may be living and show no evidence
of attack, or may be attacked by other
kinds Of insects which are not respon-
sible for the death Of trees.
d. AS soon as the bark begins to die
or any part Of the trunk, 1t Is attack
ed by numerous other insects, includ-
ing the adults of the sawyer" borers,
which do not attack healthy trees.
e. BY the time the tops have
changed from pale green to greenish
brown, the broods Of the southern pine
beetle are nearly all developed to the
stage when they enter the outer bark
to transform to adults.
(. BY the time the tops have
changed to a reddish hue, the broods
have developed and are emerging or
have emerged.
g. During the warm months the
broods will develop and emerge from
tree within thirty or forty days af-
ter it is attacked.
h: Trees attacked in November
will usually carry the broods over
winter The foliage of some trees will
fade and reach the reddish stage be-
fore spring; other trees attacked in
December or later may not fade until
the warm days of February, March or
April
Therefore, in estimating the charac-
ter and extent of the infestation with
in any given area. or in locating in
tested trees and marking them for
utilization or treatment one has only
to consider those with fading or green
ish brown foliage or the first stage Of
the yellowish red tops.
In other words the dead trees with
dead and falling foliage or those with
bare tops do not contain the broods
of the southern pine beetle, therefore
do not have to be cut.

GUARD BANK OF ENGLAND.
Detachment of Armed Soldiers Still
Maintained.

Maintained.
Visitors to rae metropolis who hap
pen to be In the vicinity of the Bank
of England about $50 o'clock in the
evening may witness one Of the most
interesting customs in London. For
it is at that time that detachment of
armed guards march into the bank
with fixed bayonets for the purpose
of guarding the e20,OO0,OOO in gold
and silver with which the vaults Of
the "Old Lady Of Threadneedle street.
are usually stocked. This custom
dates back to the Gordon riots Of
1880, when it was deemed necessary to
call in soldiers to prevent the mob
raiding The bank. Since then the bank
has been protected every night by a
detachment Of guards.
The detachment usually numbers
about thirty men, in parade dress,
with fixed bayonets and loaded am
munition belts, in charge Of two SER
geants and a lieutenant. These are
the only troops that have the privi-
lege, on ordinary occasions, Of march,
ing through the city Of London with
fixed bayonets.
For guarding the bank the soldiers
receive extra pay, which Is given to
them as soon as they enter the bank
each night. Privates and drummer
boy get l shilling each, corporals 1
shilling and pence, and serseants
2 shillings and pence. This sum Is
exclusive Of the subalterns allowance.
The aggregate cost of guarding the
Bank OF England is about G100 per
annum.
The bank authorities do all they
can for the soldiers comfort. They
provide them with extra blankets for
the winter and a selection Of books,
while the lieutenant in charge has a
snug little room, a dinner being
brought in to him from a neighboring
tavern. He is also allowed to enter
tain two guests, the only stipulation
being that they must depart before
midnight
Failing any emergency call, the ma
jority of the soldiers merely perform
sentry-go once a night for an hour.
They are posted throughout the rooms
Of the bank and in the courts, the SEN
tries being increased in the middle
of the night and remaining 'on duty
till the detachment returns to bar
racks at o'clock in the summer and
7 o'clock in the winter.
With regard to the lieutenant, there
Is a curious stipulation that he shall
only have one bottle of wine for him.
self and two for each of his guests,
while the regulation is that each SOL
dier shall not be allowed more than
one pint of stout from the small can
teen whice has been established inside
the bank for the convenience Of the
night guard.-Pall Mall Gazette.

WHEN THE
KIDNEYS FAIL
YorkviIIe People Have Found That III
Health Quickly Follows.

Do you ever feel that you Simply
can't go any further-that you must
have rest from that lame and aching
back-relief from the constant, dead
tired feeling-freedom from those
stabbing, darting pains? Likely your
kidneys are worn and tired and need
help. The kidneys work night and
day, removing uric acid from the blood
and other waste created by exercise
of strength and energy. Naturally a
life of unusual activity doubles the
duties of the kidneys and in time the
strain tells. Doan's Kidney Pills
have brought new strength to thou
sands of bad backs and quick relief to
weakened kidneys. Let them do the
same for you. Convincing proof in

James found himself a hero
when he returned to Washing
ton to- day. AS soon as the big
Kentuckian appeared on the
floor of the House he was sur
rounded by his colleagues and
showered with congratulations.
Conspicuous among those who
greeted him were Champ Clark,
the next Speaker, and Oscar
Underwood, the next chairman
of the Ways and Means Commit
tee.
The House Democrats gener-
ally agreed that the motion of
the Kentucky State Committee
in including the senatorial race
in the State primaries has done
the Democratic thing and it was
predicted that Kentucky would
retain her place in the Demo-

mirers are already addressing
