DIVINE LAWYER
SUES JAIL ANGEL
Demands $4,000 Counsel
Fees from Miss Mary
Clementine Sluedley.

John s. Wise, jr., once the "divinely
appointed" attorney for Miss Mary
Clementine Smedley, former Tombs
angel, who inherited nearly half a mill
ION dollars from Hiram H. Lamport, has
begun an earthly, unspiritual action IN
the Supreme Court against Miss Smed-
lev TO recover $4,000 which he de-
clares is due him as fees.
Mr.. Lamport was the founder and
president Of the Continental Fire In
surance Company. Miss Smedley at
one time acted as companion TO him.
and he made her the residuary legatee
of mis- estate.
Relatives Of the insurance man con-
tested the will. They were successful
in the lower courts. but Miss Smedley
carried the case to the Court Of APP
peals, which reversed the decision. She
received a little less than 100000.
There was a time, however, when she
was in danger Of losing her case be-
Robert Stuart Macarthur, then pastor
Of The Calvary Baptist Church, in which
Miss Smedley had been an active
worker, hended q subscription. and
$4,000 was raised. This enabled her 20
carry on the contest 70 victory.
When prosperity smiled Miss Smed-
ley did not forget her friends. On Feb
ruary % last she engaged the entire
second floor of the Waldorf for n re
ception and dance. Five hundred
guests, including those who subscribed
TO her loan, attended. John s. Wise,
jr., was present. and heard Miss Smed-
ley make this speech:
at was through Divine guidance that
! was led to retain Mr.. Wise as my
counsel. had had so many lawyers
and they had proved so Disappointing!
| went to Mr. Wise, and, though | liked
him the moment ! saw him, | wasn't
sure. ! went home and prayed, and
then opened my Testament. The page
before me a | looked down bore the
title First Chapter of the Gospel ac-
cording to St. John. The first verse |
saw was:
"'There was man sent from God
whose name was John!
Then | knew | was right, and now !
am sure of it, Ny happiness tonight
has come from on high. | can never
doubt again the efficacy Of prayer"
Recent attempts 10 serve summons
and complaint on Miss Smedley at the
Great Northern Hotel. in West Fifty
seventh Street, failed. Justice Finch
then granted permission to leave one
copy of the papers with the hotel clerk
to hand TO Miss Smedley and to send
another copy through the mail.
Henry J. O'Neill. a process server,
said that Miss Matilda Smedley. sister
Of the defendant, told him over the
telephone that Miss Mary Clementine
Smedley was out of town. and that
since the news Of her receiving half n
million dollars had been published she
had been so besieGed by process servers
and beggars that she almost suffered
from brain fever.

Digging Into 1t

There are some subjects that can be
easily mastered, and then there are some
that won't give up their truths unless you
dig so deep into them that you strike bot
tom. Advertising is one on which it's
easy to have opinions and hard as nails to
form right opinions.
Samuel Hopkins Adams knows more
about advertising, has dug deeper into it,
than any other writer we know. C. E.
La Vigne, director of The Bureau, in his
work for the Government dug deeper into
merchandising methods than any other
man of our acquaintance.
Superficial opinion has many failings,
but the most important is destruction
without construction. The Adams-La
Vigne brand Of opinions are positive con-
tributors to better business methods.
They are founded on rock bottom facts.

MAPS NOW
OB7A|NABlE FROM
.P0STMASTERS

The finest and most accurate maps
of the United States are those mode by
the United States Geological Survey.
This branch of the Government SER
vice prints more than 5000 maps a day
or about a million a year, most of
which are sold to the public directly
from Washington. Book and station |
cry concerns in the larger cities of
course handle these maps, but here
tofore there has been no way in which
the inhabitants of the small towns
throughout the country could get them
except by sending to Washington.
Now, however, postmasters in towns
and villages have the permission of
the post office department to handle
these maps. When the Geological
Survey prints a new map it sends a
sample copy to the postmasters in the
area covered, with the suggestion that
they tack it up in a conspicuous place,
where everyone calling for mail can
see it, and order7a small stock foH
sale to those who wish to buy the map.
This the purchaser the annoy
ance of sending to the Geological Sur
vey and waiting until the map is re-
ceived from Washington and also
saves the expense of postage. The
postmaster himself receives a small
commission on each map sold.
Many active postmasters are hand
ling the maps, and that their fellow
citizens appreciate the accommodation
of being able to buy Government maps
at the postopce is shown by the num-
Der sold in this way. The record of
maps SO sold shows that a postmaster
in Minnesota heads the list so far,
having sold 1876 maps the first month
he handled them.
Only postmasters in regions that
have been recently mapped have been
asked to handle the maps, but the Geo
logical Survey willingly answers in
quiries made by other postmastars,
sending them a sample copy of tho.
map that covers this distric', # it has
been mapped.
It is believed that this new plan of
distributing the Government maps
will benefit all concerned; it will be a
convenience to the purchasers, it will
bring the postmasters a small commits
sion, and it will increase the sale ot
the maps.
