STRANGE CLAIMS IN COURT
Law Suits of Peculiar Origin That
Have Been Placed on the Rec
ords by Lawyers.

The recent claim for damages
brought against great London eng.
land) shop by consumptive clerk,
on the ground that the insanitary state
OF the Office had brought on his dis
easei drew from the judge the remark
that this was the frst case Of the
sort that had ever come before the
courts.
Cases even more remarkable keep
cropping up at intervals. though, for
tunately, they are seldom OF so grave
nature.
Some ten years ago, for instance, a
Birmingham commercial traveller sued
a chemist for compensation for the
damages done by special hair dye
which the chemist, its inventor, had
guaranteed would turn his customers
hair an enduring brown.
What it really did was to turn his
hair a curious blush tinge, with
patches Of gray. The chemist had Of
fered to compromise by supplying his
indignant customer with any recog-
nized make of dye he wished for the
rest Of his life. But an action fol-
lowed, and the piebald traveller Sc
cured damages.
One Of the funniest cases ever
brought into a court Of law was surely
that which tickled all Australia toward
the end OF the last century. A young
Sydney business woman had mixed
secret drink cure with her brothers.
breakfast coffee.
The brother found the effect ex-
tremely unwelcome, and when he real
lied who was responsible for his fad
ing interest in strong drink, he was
ungrateful enough to sue his sister for
$4,000 damages for Consequent loss
OF thirst" But an unsympathetic jury
took the sisters side.
A case that reused great interest In
medical circles. as we'll as a good deal
OF amusement, was an action brought
good many years ago by a surgeon
at London hospital against a col
league for the loss OF an ear.
A diseased ear was to be amputat-
ed. The patient. struggling under
chloroform, was being held down. Just
then the lights went out. The patient
fell of the edge Of the table in his
struggles and the junior surgeon leant
over after him. The operator felt an
ear in his hand, and thinking he might
not get another opportunity, the pa.
tient being 80 abnormally restless
made one swift, neat slash. The oper.
alton was successful. but the ear was
the wrong mans.

GIVING THE PLUG HIS DUE
steadysolnp, Sensible Qualities Are
Not Always Accorded the Recoe-
milton That They Deserve.

Don't make fun of the plug. He may
be slow and awkward and never get
to the stable until dark, but he Is the
fellow who In the end will bring home
the coin. says Kansas City writer.
The plug horse that pulls the lister
all day in the field puts more money
In the bank for the honest farmer
than the race horse that goes out and
turns half In 0: 90 fat and then loafs
for two weeks waiting for another
race to be matched. The old plug
goes out In sunshine and storm and
pulls in few dollars every week, but
the race horse waits for the day when
the track is good and then generally
loses more than he wins. The steady
old plug keeps the wolf from the door,
while the race horse causes the mort
gage to be foreclosed.
Just SO with the man. Pin your
faith to the plug who keeps eternally
at it, the fellow who gets up every
morning and does 80 much and is
ready to do 1t again next day. He
lays up more shining dollars in the
bank than the swift sport who lies
around all summer waiting for luck
to come along and turn a stream of
silver into his pocket. One cackling
Plymouth Rock hen is worth dozen
screaming eagles when 1t comes to
paying off the mortgage. The plug
is the fellow who Staadies the shin
and acts as ballast when the boat be-
gins to rock. The plug is the fellow
who lives contentedly and long and
when he passes away the local paper
says, "He leaves his family in com
Portable circumstances.
