Triumph OF a "Masher."

A young man played mean trick on
four modest young women in the thea
tire of smrll town recently. The girls
knew the youth, but had snubbed him
at the door Of the playhouse by refusing
to speak TO him. He decided to ..get
even"
The girls occupied the first four seats
IN the sixth row and the young man had
the fifth seat. They paid no attention
to him whatever During the early part
oil the program a monologist came out
on the stage and began TO talk about
love. 1t was then that the snubbed
young man got his chance to square ac-
counts with the girls. Suddenly the
monologist asked:
"WilI all the girls who are in love
please stand up?"
Turning to the girl next to him the
young man said: please let me outr,
Naturally the whole four had to rise
to let him get by. When they were once
on their feet the young man settled back
in his seat and grinned. The rest of the
audience roared in glee.

AS to LibelS.

In deciding an appeal in libel suit,
the Kentucky court of appeals says the
truth is always a complete defence.
Felix b. Feltner had charged that the
| Louisville Herald had libeled him by re
ferrhg to him as ''henchmen OF Har-
gris,' fugitive from justice and an
''outcast," and the court of appeals said
that the "undisputed evidence we think
clearly established that Feltner was a
'henchman of Hargis'. also that he was
fugitive from justice" and one engag-
ed in such conduct as evidenced Invites
the contempt of right-minded people
and puts him in the attitude of deserv-
ing TO be expelled from society as a
degraded and disgraced pearson. The
publication in all its essential features
was SUBSTANTIALLY true and the motion
for peremptory instructions should have
been sustained
The Feltner case was an extreme one,
and the fact that a mountain court gave
him a judgment for S., 600 against The
Herald, only shows how the courts are
run in some of the mountain counties.
No solvent or reputable newspaper
will wantonly libel any man. The pub
Usher cannot afford it, and constantly
guards against il, no matter what the
provocation to tell the full facts. OF
course, publishers are sometimes led
into errors and misStatements, in which
event they are only too willing to speed
lily retract An irresponsible publisher,
such as we have in the vile little cam
paign sheets that occasionally spring up,
can be reached through the criminal
courts, but their efforts are generally
not worth attention.
No man who has a reputation worth
defending, ever makes anything by lis
tening to damage suit lawyer in this
day and age. He will find the editor or
publisher, with no mercenary designs,
generally better friend than such an adj
visor. A courthouse vindication is dear
ly gained. III ne Is entitled 10 vlndl-
cation he can nine times out of ten get
it from the newspaper that aggrieved
him.
Ii used TO be said, THE greater the
truth, the greater the LIBEL but the
Court of Appeals of Kentucky takes the
position that 1.-The truth is always
complete defense" and this is but COM

Can Hens Hold Up Their
Fees?

1t may be news TO many farmers, or
even poultrymen, 10 know that hens
hold up" their eggs just the same as
Jersey COW will hold up her milk when
she gets bit stubborn or excited; but it
is so. Just let farmer chase the hens
from a cornfield or garden, set the dog
on them, or throw clods and yell at
them, and watch the result. Where
the evening gathering showed a dozen or
fifteen eggs. not more than seven or pos
sibly six will be found, and the poor
hen is accused of stealing her nest out
somewhere. IL takes three days of
care TO get the egg record back to nor
NAL. The sudden swoop of hawk will
do the same thing, for laying hen has
whole nature keyed up to the high
est nervous tension and demands quiet,
easy treatment, free from sudden fright
or worry. | have seen farmers who
were always yelling at the hens if they
dared pick an apple or step in corn
field. or who let the young dogs chase
them unrebuked and then swear that
the hens did not pay. How could they
under such treatment? For this reason
do not allow visitors to enter the laying
house, nor their children to prowl about
the nests. If strange dogs are bent upon
investigating the henyard their hide is
worth something, but give the hens
quiet and peace at all costs. Often sue
cessive or severe fright will result iu
dead germs, and the egg is utterly use
less for setting. Have one attendant to
care for the hens SO that they will not
be afraid at any time.

LONDON, Feb. 1S.-The latest

exploited by European and American
newspapers is an old story revamped
and unsubstantiated according to to-
DAYS Darkest Russia.
The story that a christian boy was
murdered by Jews, a crime similar to
the killing of Andrew Yushinsky, for
which Mendel Bells was tried, says
the publication was revived by anti
Semitic newspapers in Russia for the
purpose of fomenting the feeling
against the Jews.
The latest version of the tragedy Is
that the dead boy was Jew, murder
ed by Jews for the purpose OF demon
strating to the world that 1t is not
only christian boys who are killed IN
