THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT
BY Ruth Cameron
ON WORTHLESS COMPLIMENTS.

When is a compliment not a compli-
ment?
Did you ever ask yourself that
question?
Or do you find appreciation from
any source so sweet a morsel that
you never stop 10 analyze IL? There
are great many people who are
obligingly uncritical of others opin-
ions-that Is. when these opinions are
favorable TO them. In the opposite
case-well. that's quite another mat
ter. Then they are sure to analyze
the motives most carefully and to find
that envy or Jealousy OF a mean dis
position on the part OF the critic is
at the root OF the criticism.
To return to the main road. the true
value of appreciation is determined
by two factors: the conditions under
which 10 Is given and the Judgment
Of the person who gives It,
a neighbor OF mine was most de-
lighted the other day because her
dressmaker said that she had the best
figure she had ever fitted. And she
ought TO know something about fig-
ures." said my neighbor, fairly brid-
ling with delight. So she had. That
Is, one factor IN the appreciation was
entirely satisfactory. but how about
the other-thc conditions under which
IL was given? The dressmaker Is new
to the town and Is trying TO build
up her trade My neighbor Is a very
dressy woman whose patronage means
considerable. Furthermore she has a
circle OF well-tO-do friends. OF course
one doesn't want 10 be invidious. but
does II seem altogether impossible
that the dressmaker may have had
some Interior motive in thus praisin (

hole in the front side Of the trousers
which Edwards wore. When the exam.
nation was over, though, 1t was stat
ed by DR.. Osgood that It could not be
accounted for except that the trousers
may have been slipped considerably
to one side when the shot was fired.
There was scar in the left groin OF
small size and the doctor stated that
he took buckshot from the surface
of the leg at the time Of the opera
ton at the hospital. The only other
wound in the front Of Edwards body
was the one near the apex Of the
heart which was only flesh wound
the bullet landing near the sternum.
This bullet was also extracted. The
wound on the inner side Of the thigh
Of the left leg passed through the
leg and lodged in some part Of the left
groin and theb ullet is still there. This
shot came out from the rear. Other
shot wounds were disclosed on both
the left and right legs and some OF
the shot, the doctor said, had been re-
moved, while others had not. The shot
wound in the left thigh on the outer
side which severed the large artery
and caused SO much bleeding, show
ed long incision where the doctor
probed for the bullet and sewed up
the severed artery.
Before DR.. Osgood left the witness
stand he was again called upon to ex
anime the wounds in Martins ankle
Of the left leg. He stated that It ap
peared to him from the examination
that the shot passed through the
| ankle from the inner SIDE, as the
wound on that side WAS larger thar
the one on the outer surface.
At this juncture R. L. Coneley wal
recalled for cross examination ant
the time of the fore noon, to within 9
few minutes of twelve o'clock, was
taken up along the line Of examina
ton as Saturday afternoon. Mr.. Con
ely again stated that he based his
opinion AS to the similarity Of the
hand writings in the standard exhibits
and those of the blackhand letters
o. A, l., and ], The down stroke
of the o was longer than the upstrokt
