THE BRIEFLEss BARRIsTER.

An attorney was taking a turn,
In shabby habiliments drest;
His coat it was shockingly worn,
And the rust had invested his vest.
His breeches had suffered q breach,
His linen and worsted were worse;
He had not a whole crown in his hat,
And not half a crown in his purse.
And thus as he wandered along,
A cheerless and comfortless elf,
He sought for relief in a song,
Or c~omplainingly talked to himself.
unfortunate nan that I AMI.
I've never a client but grief;
The case is, Nv no case at all,
And in brief I've never had a brief!
ooh, how can a modest young mar
Fer hope for the smallest progression,
The professions already SO full
OF lawyers so full of, profession!"
While thus he was strolling around
His eye accidentally fell
On a very deep hole in the ground,
And he sighed to himself, 'It is
we'll"
To curb his emotions he sat.

minute.
Then cried, Here's an opening at
last!,"
And in less than a fifty was in it.
Next morning twelve citizens came
('Twas the coroner babe them at
tend.)
To the end that it might be determined
How the NAL had determined his
end.
THE man was q lawyer, I hear"
Quoth the foreman who sat on the
corse.
"A lawyer? Alas!" said another,
Undoubtedly died of remorse!".
A third said he knew the deceased,
An attorney well versed In the laws,
And as to the cause Of his death,
Twas no doubt for the want OF a
cause.
The jury decided at length,
After solemnly weighing the matter,
That the lawyer was drowned because
He could not keep his head above
water,

COMM NIcA

To The Forum; It is really a treat
before q. representative body Of Fargo
citizens. Cine statement hat appealed
to me more than any other, was that
punishment is all wrong and 1 presume
Mr.. Steffens talks from the standpoint
OF one who has the power to inf1ict
sentences on wrnngdoers. You will
doubtless agree with him hat there
is a vast difference between remedial
restraint and police brutality. There
fore this complaint, Why are un-
fortunates, who become wards Of the
city jail allowed to sleep on the con
crete MOOR, without any bedding? Is
this what you would call Justice? Cap

says Yes. They should not get drunk"
[ say no" While the city of Fargo
tna not feel the immediate effects of
such a vicious system, the fact is that
such brutality creates brutes.

Ing and mentioned this subject, think
ing thai an organization of this kind,
claiming to be the champions of the
working people, would be anxious to
do something to remedy such condi-
tlons. But one of their one~eYed fol-
lowers, who possibly was a major gem
eral, and whose mental vision seemed
also to be lacking about so per cent.

have to sleep on a cold slab. Such is
some peoples christianity"
Now Mr. Editor, 1 will not ask is it
lawful to treat men this way, because
the working hobo rightfully realizes
that thera is no justice for him at
present. ! hope you, as a public serv-
ant, will publish this letter in Justice
to those poor men who are nothing
more than victims OF this dollar sys-
tenn. Thanking you in anticipation Of
your Kindness Edward Mccarthy.

LARD CASE IN

DEFENDANTS IN FAMOUS TRIAL
CONTEND THAT LAW Is
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

Bismarck, n. D., Nov. 12.-The Cass
county grease case is now in the
hands of the supreme court Of the
state. This case was instituted by
Professor Ladd, state pure food com
missioner, to test chapter 2S6 of the
1911 session laws. This chapter pro
vides that lard and lard products and
substitutes must be put UP. If not
sold IN bulk, in containers of n pound
or an even multiple thereof. Also
that the net weight Of lard must be
plainly stated upon the label on the
container. Professor Iadd purchased

OSTEOPATHY. NOT MASSAGE

VI 1t gets to be q, threadbare explana-
ton that ~osteopathy Is not massage,
and yet we have to make 1t over and
over again, for many people hold to
such an opinion.
Osteopathy is neither "a scientific
form Of massage nor any other kind.
It Is a. complete school of medical
practice, although not using drugs as
remedial agents.
And it might employ massage as an
adjunct, such as any other school does
when massage happens to be requir-
ed.
But do not confuse this broad science
of natural medicine with the limited
art of the masseur, for the two have
very little at basis to u confusion
between them, except that both are
performed with the hands.
But then the hands are used to do
most everything. So 1T Is not suffi-
5cient apology for saying that "osteo-
5pathy Is only massage.
In employing AT osteopath be sure
that he has attended and graduated
from q reputable osteopathic college
(not a correspondence SCHOOL,.
An osteopath who has graduated
from a reputable school has studied
practically the same things, and put
in practically the same length of time
as a. graduateFofta medical school, and
these things a only be learned
while in actual attendance at some
good school (and not by taking a few
lessons by mail.) BE sure your os-
teoIsath lis a graduate of a reputable
Iosteopathic school.-Advt.

"FArHER" AND "MoTHER" BEST.


Answers: Father and mother"
are difficult words to improve upon
when one thinks of the associations
they convey and the dignity of their
meaning.

shoots Of these appellations. Papa
and mama have been in use in Eng
land for at least three centuries, and
it is generally accepted that they are

word mama" in the Purgatorio.

daddy" Is a favorite nickname.
DAD lis Of pure WEIGH extraction,
and is derived from, or is a corruption
of the word tad"
"Pater" and mater make their APP
p~earance when students are in the
throes Of Latin grammar. "Poppa"
and "momma" have appealed to the
young American.
None of these nicknames, or terms
Of endearment, can, however, approach
the beautiful Anglo-Saxon definition
of parents-"father" and mother"
and it is these terms that n clings to
when childhood's days are over.
