WASTING TIME IN COURT.

Until Justice Golf established a new record in tho disposition of the Beck CT and gunmen trials in New ' York it had been customary to extend and delay such important cases, on the part of the lawyers beyond all rea- sonable bounds for the purpose of ex- hausting every conceivable means of securing an acquittal, by introducing such a mass of evidence as to confuse the jurors and thwart justice. Justice Golf put an end to that and a Kansas jury evidently appreciated his atti- tude when at recent trial which had required three weeks and promised to consume the fourth, they protested to the court that there was need of elim- mating much of the delaying and use- less questioning and hasten the pro eedure as 1t was necessary that they should get back to their work. It had its effect. It brought forth no orders but there were restrictions by the court and an awakening by the at torneys who realized that delay might affect the minds of the jury.
 There are times of the year when farmers in particular suffer greatly from slow trials and it is their indf- vidual interests which are being in jured. It is but reasonable that pro- gress should be as expeditions as pos sible and though farmers did not fill the jury box in New York that was also the opinion of Justice Golf. Ser vice on the jury is a duty which should not be shirked, but it should receive the proper respect by over coming a tendency on the part of lawyers to waste valuable time.
 
 CHECKING THE WHITE PLAGUE.
 Connecticut stands high among the other states of the union in the ex- penditures in behalf of the fight against tuberculosis. ranking sixth in the matter of total outlay which reaches the aggregate of $6S5,910 for the past year. By figures which have been compiled by the National As- sociation for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis it is shown that near ly nineteen million was spent in the work about the country during the year. In this connection it is a no- ticeable fact that the expenditures for sanatorium and hospital construction and treatment make .he largest sin file item in the total, amounting to nearly 16.Soe,oo0 or an increase of nearly five million over the year pre- vious- It is in this particular line of work that the state and the various organizations engaged therein are di- recting their efforts, the importance of giving the patients the best and most approved method of treatment being fully realized.
 How extensive the war against the white plague is being waged is indi cated by the increase in the expendi- lures for the open air schools and fresh air classes to over $115,000. the outlay of saso.o0o by state and muni- cipa1 authorities in institutional work outside of the maintenance of insti- tutions and the expenditures of half a million by insane hospitals and penal institutions for the care of their tu- berculosis inmates. Interest in the effort is growing as the people ara becoming educated to it and it's needs and from the increased interest and funds magnificent results can be an ticipated.

Every man has his pecuiiarities, so the man who thinks .his neighbor Is very peculiar may be equally peculiar himself. It is claimed by those who read character and who detect crini- nals that every man has his betray- ing sign-that he cannot so com pietely disguise himself that some mannerism or habit will not disclose his identity as positively as the BerteIlon meas urements. He twists his beard, or runs his fingers through his hair, or slouches in his chair. or is awkward with his hands, or snaps his fingers. He has singular ways which are as natural to him as his eyebrows. That you out" might be amended to read: Be sure your peculiarities will give you away. A man may be dis guised he does not look like himself; but he cannot help acting like him. self

EDITORIAL NOTES. Only thiTty-six months to the next year when girls can propose.

William, do not put that old con- undrum to us: Does the bride marry the best man at her wedding" Of course she does. Who IS tine best man at wedding, anyway? Do you not know that he may be the worst man in the bunch. The bride never is con- scious of any best man at the wedding except the bridegroom. The next best man to him is the one he selects to see him through the nuptial ceremony and once in awhile when the bridegroom has failed to keep his appointment the best man has been krowE to substi- ute just to prevent failure of the ceremonies; but 1t is rare best man who has the courage to do this. The best man at wedding rarely gets to be the best man anywhere else. This may not always have been an empty title, but in these days the best man is a very ordinary individual. The bride always marries the best man, and she has to take him for better or worse at that.

1t does not seem as if in two months more the migrating birds will begin to come north again; but those who are interested in birdlife and nature will see the cedar birds coming north in fiocks the last of February, and the owls and hardy buteos will be select ing their mates and preparing to go to housekeeping. The skunk cabbage will begin to show signs of life in the frozen swamp and on the warmest days the day flies, or ephemera, will be seen dancing on filny wings in the sun.

Some people do not believe in good fortune, but they cannot cry 1t down because nature is all the time demon stra ting it. It is good fortune to be well born-born to parents of heart and intellect. or of money and good sense. To be born among the child workers and to become a wage slave in juve nility is hard luck. That is what I say it is-born to a condition one must be rescued from, or else be an under dog by inheritance. How absurd 1t Is to say we are born free and equal. Quality is what some people are arnbi- tious to represent, and they want noth- ing to do with equality. Some are born to ignorance and want and crime are trained in evil ways and coerced to do mischief We are all born free and eauap' Is pretty phrase although it clothes a base illusion The we'll born have reason to thank God every day that their lines were cast in nleas- ant places.

THE MAN WHO TALKS

The statement that shattery is most frequently used on women and tomb ' stonesa must make the geAtler sex smile. When it comes to suscep flbaiity. to fattery what Is the use sof referring to sex Both sexes show more or less skill ats it. and it does not seem to me as if the women get any more than their share, or take most CT more seriously than the men dc. It is fash 4 ionable to hatter people, because 1t is much easier than it is to praise them It was Ben Johnson Who designaled the flatterer as "a tame beast" and the been allowed to die. Some people dis like those who hatter them too much, and equally disregard those who do not fatter them at all. It was Fielding who discovered that IT you commeno a fool for his wit. or a knave for his their their pogo1n.* Only vanity recognizes fiattery as coinage.
 Did you ever give attention to the wants of the race They all want to be rich and none want to be poor, but there is such difference of opinion as to what constitutes riches that some want money and others want the riches money cannot buy. ThRy all want to live on Easy street. Eat as the street is not long enough to ac- commodate more than a few. this is hardly worth talking about Women en who are fat want to be thin. Men who know nothing about agriculture want to farm, and men who know nothing about trade are anxious to go into business. Most men want a soft snap' but only few men have ever found one. All want high living, but low prices. In fact. the desires of the race appear to be involved in impessi- bi1ities. Perhaps this is what makes a few people think that everybody else is crazy Socrates reminded us that the fewer our wants the nearer we resembied the gods.''
 Some people do not believe in good fortune. but they cannot cry 1t down because nature is all the time demon stra ting it. It is good fortune to be well born-born to parents of heart and intellect, or of money and good sense.
