What a Sardine ls.-British courts

What q Sardine ls.-British courts,
like ours, are being 'lugged into the
pure food crusade for settling some
major and many minor questions.
One involving the definition of a sar-
dine was answered at the Guildhall
police court in London. A firm import
ing French sardines had brought an
action against a firm importing Nor
wegian sardines. The plaintiffs con-
tended that the fish they imported,
technically known as culpea pilchar-
dus, were the only true sardines. The
defendants said their fish, culpea
sparattus, were just as much sardine
as any French fish that ever went a.
swimming. The court decided that
whatever may have been true In the
last century, there was no doubt now
that the term sa-dine was interpret
ed by the public to mean any small
fish preserved in oil. In other words,
that the name indicated the method of
preservation rather than any particu-
lar culpea- For a court this definition
is strangely curt and simple. Most
any of our judges could fill three or
four large pages with a sardine def
milton that would leave the whole
world in doubt as to what a sardine
really is.-New York Press.

Henceforth. when he whispers the
"old, old story" she. preserving clear
mental vision of the prospective dam
ages, must throw back her shoulders,
open wide her mouth and bawl "Yes!"
in a tone that would carry to the ears
of the jury if twelve of these SYM
pathetic gentlemen happened to be in
the room.
The nod or the lowering of the eyes,
while they might denote acquiescence
in an amatory sense, are subject to
grave misconstruction in a judicial
sense, for they might denote embar-
rassment, or coyness or some other
state of mind on the part of the pros
pective bride or plaintiff.
She should remember that breach
of promise suit can rest only on con-
tract, and that a contract, to have any
force and effect, requires the unmis-
taxable affirmation Of two parties.
Therefore, when he pleads the depth
of his love and the length of his bank
account, she should resist the temp
tation to humble "Uh, uh," which Is
not recognized by the photographers
and would doubtless be rejected by
the courts.
Seeing him slip reverent arm
about her waist and draw her pulsat-
ing breast to the heart that beats only
for her, she might be tempted to throw
her arms around his neck and mingle
her curls with his, but she should halt
short, remembering that a learned
judge might hold this gesture to have
been an effort to save herself from
falling and not promise to be his
wife.
No matter what degree Of agita-
tions assails her, no matter what emo
tions beset her, she should recover her
self, If she expects to recover dam
ages and shout "Yes!' Scream "yes,"
cry "yes," shrek "yes," bark ''yes;" If
necessary, fair maid, bite ''yes" on his
shirt front, but let not your state Of
mind be subjected to misconception,
lest it later become subject to judicial
misinterpretation. San Francisco

Who Pays the Freight?

While it is a fact that there are doz-
ems Of legal reserve or "old line" life
insurance companies doing business
in America today that are as safe as
the United States government when 1t
comes to meeting their obligations,
and not one of, them has ever failed to
meet an honest obligation, 1t Is also
a fact that not one Of them issues
contracts that are as liberal as those
of the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance
Company-euarantee as many privi-
Ieqes. 1t is fact also that no priv
ilege of any recognized value embrac-
ed in the contract Of any Of the old,
Established companies Is not embrac-
ed in those of the Mutual Benefit, and
it Is also a fact that the Mutual Ben
eft contracts embrace a number OF
Valuable Features that no other oom-
pany offers. No company has reputa-
ton equal to that Of the Mutual Bene-
fit Of giving each individual member
square deal regardless Of whether or
not he knows his rights. 1t has never
had to be forced to give a square deal
by recourse to law, but has always,
during the 67 years of its existence,
done so voluntarily. In view or the
fact that the policy holder pays the
freight it is duty he owes himself to
buy the best, and he cannot get II ex-
cept from the Mutual Benefit. A care
full investigation will convince the
most skeptical.

1T Andrew Carnegie tells Of unique
proposal of marriage which was an
actual happening in Scotch town
where he was stopping one summer.
A Scotch beadle was very much in
love, and was also extremely bashful.
He couldn't make up his mind to ask
the lady for her heart and hand In
the ordinary manner. He made sever
al attempts, but his courage always
failed him at the auspicious moment.
One day he asked her to go for
walk and led the way to the church
yard; there finding the lot where his
ancestors lay, he pointed to the head
stones, and said:
"All my folks are buried here, Jo-
an. Wadn't you like to be laid away
here wi 'em some day."

English Kings and sports.-King
George, in announcing his intention
Of witnessing football match, shows
himself more favorable to the game
than some of his predecessors. In
1914 Edward II. issued a prohibition of
football. "Forasmuch as there Is a
great noise in the city caused by hust-
ling over large balls, we command and
forbid, on pain Of Imprisonment, such
game to be played in the future"
Richard H., prohibited "all playing OF
football, tennis and other games called
corts, dice, casting of the stones,
kailes and other such importune
games" The same statute was REIN
acted by Henry w, but all attempts
to coerce Englishmen into giving up
football were hopeless failures
