If they are thrice armed who havs their quarrel just. then ladies taiiors must be the most righteous persons whoi ever invited a lawsuit. for they have confidence enough in their eVn cause to employ women lawyers. At a meeting Of law school graduates vhc have worked up a lucrative prae' tice. four women declared that their first clients were tsilors.
 "A ladies tailor who does good wcrk prefers a woman lawyer" said one. She has a knowledge Of clothes that DO mere man can ever hope to ae' ouire. and 1T the gown fought over is g halfway decent piece Of workman ship she will be able 10 convince a fudge and jury Of It's merits every tine.

SCIENTIFIC POINT CLEARED UP
size Of Water Particles Now Known to Change With the Age
 of Clouds.

It seems rather singular 10 speak of the "age'of clouds"--of "old clouds' and young clouds" yet it really ap pears that such a distinction can be made. and that the discovery, as so frequently happens in matters scien. tihc, was based upon a preceding mis take.
 The conclusion was reached years ago in scientific quarters that the density of cloud was proportioned to the number of water particles it con tsined. the water particles. in turn. depending upon the particles of dust present. Later. however. these same authorities asceTtRined that their first conclusion was wrong. and that in many clouds the density falls far short of proportionality with the number of water particles Further investiga ton points 10 the fact that the size of the water particles changes with the age" of the cloud The clouds upon which the first observations were made must il is thought. have been old clouds. and in them tne water particles. being comparatively large. appeared to be proportional to the density. But the later observations were made upon newly-formed or young clouds. in which the particles were small in size.

SO he went ahead with the cere- nony with a good deal of satisfaction.
 He had it in mind not to accept lee from these iowly members of bis lock. but the bridegroom. with a oeaming face, handed over the usual small envelope and departed with bis Dinah before the preacher could pro test. When the pastor opened ths envelope later he read this note:
 Dear Pastor: [ am sorry cannot pay you a fee now for uniting me h wedlock. but spent all had on wed. aing clothes. Iywill send, you the money just as soon as Dinah gets to york again"

He grasped the end just in time to see a small brown dog carrying it towards the door MT Sultan thinking that perhaps the dog  wanted to hang some of the candi dates, came to the conclusion that he was a wise animal A few minutes after Mir. Sultan saw the same dog at tempting to carry of feather duster and he attributed that to the fact that the dog. not being able 10 find a broom in order to make a sweep of he opposing candidates took the next best thing. However, it had been but a few minutes before the dog again returned and was caught in the act of stealing a shoe. Mir.
