Witness Unbalanced-Charles Mil

der trial of John Reagan, who shot
and killed Maude Stout and who was
later sentenced to five years in San
Quentin, is suffering from severe de:
lusions and will probably be exam
ined by a commission to determine
his sanity Edmondson was rational
when he was first held as a witness,
but after several days confinement
his condition became puzzling. His
demeanor during the trial was such
as to preclude his sanity.
District Answers Sult--Through
Haines and Haines, attorneys, the I'M

complaint of the Imperial Land Co.
better known as the Oakley contin-
gent, stating that because affidavits
did not accompany the signed petit
ton containing 6S1 names, that the
said petitioners erred in contesting
the assessment The main contention
was that the petition did not contain
total of genuine signatures and
that the assessment order had never
been reviewed by court.

TO suit her IL she has known the
common heritage Of all womankind she
has learned that there are few the

any kind in the life Of a woman who
Is wife and mother. and the pleasures
Of this kind which were hers as a girl
grow bright in retrospection. She has
what is commonly known among women

aters and balls and parties making
youth worth while. Naturally she
wants her daughter TO know the same
Joys. fearing, from her own experience
perhaps, that unless youth brings you
such recreatlons you will never know
them.
She is right in a degree. The lover
who is never expected TO spend a dol
lar on his sweetheart falls naturally
into the ways of the husband who be
grudges the penny. You are also right
in a degree, Right in spending your
evenings as II pleases you. and right
in smarting under a criticism of time
spent so innocently. / can almost see
you keeping back the angry reply that
If YOU spent all your evenings away
from home she might have something
more TO complain about, and am proud
of you that you suppress 1t.
But don't let your sweetheart get into
the habit of feeling that you have no
longings for anything lying outside your
own four walls. The time will come to
him when he will know safety of the
cstlike pleasure OF blinking at the fire

for a change he will (under your present
tutelage) wander forth alone.

II VERIFYING depends upon the
r. manner in which it is spoken.
There are some mothers who be
gin softly, when | was a girl" and
their daughters listen with wide opened
eyes and a sympathetic understanding,
and there are other mothers who have
only to mention the days Of their girl
hood to arouse sullen resentment and
obstinacy in their daughters breasts.
They know that the comparison Of
that bygone day with their own youth
is to be unfavorsble to themselves.
They have learned through much reiter
alton that when | was a girl pre-
cudes criticism and never a com
mendation.
OF such misunderstanding and mis-
understood daughters is numbered the
writer of the following letter:
81 am IS and am keeping company
with yo ing man Of o. Now, l am a
girl who does not care to so around
days, and once in a while on Sunday
we go to visit friends, but never go
out nights
my mother constantly finds fault
about IT, She says 1t is wonder you
don't go to a theater Instead of stay
ing around the house. When | was a
girl my beau took me 10 the theater
every week
she also calls me cheap sport and
says other unpleasant things Now
love this young man, and it hurts me
to have her say these things. She also
says that he is nice young man, ana
all right, but always adds. Why doesn't
he take you for good time?'
IF YOU were In my place, what would
you say to herr"
II were in your place, my dear girl,
would try hard TO think that there is
some justice in what my mother says,
