l59 volumes. In addition to this
there are thirty three volumes of
the Kentucky Law R eporter, 159
volumes of the Southwestern and
about IA volumes of Kentucky
Opinions, all of which books have
been digested and cited in the
Digests containing over ten
large volumes. In addition to
this, the Kentucky Court of APP
peals cites the American Reports,
the L. R. A. and numerous other
sets of books. To undertake to
examine a given proposition of
law and to read all that the court
has cited upon the point, and to
read the great number of auxiliary
cases cited, gives a lawyer the
nervous jimjams, takes up all his
time reading worthless opinions,
and in the end he may find that
he has overlooked some case
which the presiding judge of the
court may think is the best opin-

himself Inundated and out of

A New York female censor
says 4 yard of kisses is enough.
That depends altogether on the
one you're kissing. If she's ugly
a yard is entirely too long, but,
if she's a dainty Kentucky girl,
why-oh, let's talk about some
thing else.-Danville Messenger.
A big, homegrown, corn-fed
girl may not be able to tango as
gracefully as her slenderer hot
house sister, but she is there
with bells on when it comes to
doing the kitchen scrub, and the
dust rag dip, and the broomstick
balance, or the cooking canter.
