Prior to his departure for Floor

the Legislature in special session for
tho sole purpose of considering the
question of direct primaries April
25 was the date designated by the
Governor for assembling Of the So

Governor himself believes that he
has no authority to assume what the
Legislature will do or what it will
not do, but-hol that he has certain
duties to perform.
Governor Giasscock is not in

by many Of those who are opposed
to a special session Of the futility of
the act. While he realizes there is
always a vast sentiment against a
special session. he holds that much

special sessions Of the Legislature
The Legislature of 1905 he believes
responsible for the new tax laws, and
asserts that the special session of

was rather bad for me, began to see.
Here was woman who could, If she
wished, and had any motive for so
doing, put me in Jail under a capital
charge. A word from her to the po-

come active interference.
Then, too, she could say that she
had seen me, just after the wreck,
with young woman from the muir
dered mans car, and thus probably
bring Alison West into the case.
1t is not surprising, then, that ate
little. The woman across seemed in
no hurry to go. She loftered over a
demi-tasse, and that finished, sat with
her elbow on the table, her chin in
her hand, looking darkly at the chang
ing groups in the room.
The fun at the table where the col
lege boys sat began to grow a little
noisy; the fat man, now purplish
shade, ambled away behind his slim
companion; the newspaper woman
pinned on her business-like hat and
stalked out. Still the woman at the
next table waited.
1t was a relief when the meal was
over. We got our hats and we're
about to leave the room, when

Led by the Nose.

An analytical chemist was retained
as skilled witness some years ago,
where there are questions of analyt-
ical chemistry. There was one case
where farmer had bought some ar
tificial manure, and he was being
sued for the price of it. He resisted
payment on the ground that the ma.
terial had none of the qualities of
manure at ALL The expert chemist
was one of the witnesses, and had
stated that, although the substance
had the smell, it had none of the
chemical qualities of manure. Under
cross-examination he was asked, if
that was so, how did he account for
hundreds of the best farmers having
taken the manure for many years
They must have been led by tie

The woman sat still for a moment;
then, with an apparent resolution to
make the best of it, she began slowly
to eat the meal before her.
But the quarrel had taken away her
appetite, for the mixture in our
chatting dish was hardly ready to

back a little and looked around the

The Simple Life.

Anna Maria Wilhelmina Pickering,
in her Memoirs" edited by ner son,
tells Yorkshire incident which con-
tains great deal of human nature.
Variety spices life; the plain is monot-
onous, until its extent entities it to
the name of prairie or desert, and it
gains interest through vastness.
There was an old couple in the vii
lage whom used often to go to see.
One day, when l found them sitting,
one on each side of the fire, the old
man said to me;
Well, t. missis and me, we've been
married night on so years, and we've
never had one quarrel"
The old woman looked at me, with a
twinkle in her eye, and said:
