Trial hx Jury.

The New York Law Journal says on
the subject OF trial by jury:
while we do not think that trial by
jury ought to be abolished or that there
is any increasing sentiment in that di-
rection, we do believe that the system
should be modified by dispensing with
the requirement for unanimous verdicts.
This would Obviate the element of in
dividual eccentricity as an impeachment
to the administration of justice. Men
tai idiosyncrasy on the part Of judges
is constantly exhibited and scarcely
excites comment. An eminent and
very able judge will dissent from the
ruling of his associates when it is ex-
tremely difficult to understand how so
gifted a mind could have gone off on
that particular tangent. BY permitting
afirmances or reversals, notwithstand-
ing dissent, the personal equation is
eliminated"

ARMS OF ANTWERP.
They Recall the Queer Custom That
Gave the City Its Name.

1aV0 the Ilty lis vans.
Historians relate that Antwerp takes
it's name from a castle which in Frank
ish times marked the site of the city.
This castle was built to protect the
entrance to the Scheldt and to pre-
vent foreign traders Introducing goods
into the country lthout paying toll to
the SOW reign lord.
The penalty for theft and smuggling
was in those days the cutting off Of a
hand, and, as in this case the severed
members were thrown into the Scheldt.
the castle came to be known as And
h~unerbO-or, in Flemish. Antwerpen-
the place Of hand throwing" The
castle and two severed hands appear
on the city arms to this day.
Antwerp cathedral's tapering spire
was once compared by Charles v. to
mechlin lace. The towers Of the old
Steen castle. the fortress palace OF the
former counts Of Antwerp, break the
center OF the line Of docks and look as
stolid and formidable as in the days
when the castle was necessary to guard
the shipping. Here were held those
great fairs which during the middle
ages served to attract merchants from
all parts Of the civilized world.-Lon-

BRYANT'S POETIC CAREER.
Two Facts About His Greatest Work
HThanatopsis,n

Bryant was nearly twenty-three
years old when ''Thanatopsis" was first
printed in the Norrh American Review.
So much has been said about the as
founding p~recocity of this poet and 50
many errors have accumulated around
the publication of his masterpiece that
it may be well to state the facts.
We know just two facts about this
work. First, it was published when
Bryant was almost twenty-three-not
young for a poetic genius; second, that
in it's original published form in the
North American Review it Is not q re-
markable poem.
It was in the 1921 edition of Bryant's
poems, when the author was twenty
six OF ~tWenty-seven, that the work first
appeared in its universally known
form. Only a few minor changes We're
the generally accepted statement that
''Thenatopsis' Is a juvenile master
piece.
Bryant was, however, a precocious
poet, although his precocity is not dis
played in his greatest work. One OF
the most extraordinary facts about his
poetical career Is that he actually pub
lished verse during the administration
Of Thomas Jefferson and during the
administration Of Rutherford B. Hayes.
So long a period and so slender an out
put speak well for his fastidiOus taste.

TO MAKE scENT AT HOME
Woman Who Has Successfully Accom-
plished II Has Made Her Method
Publle-Really Simple.

A woman who has been trying a
very simple way of capturing the
natural fragrance Of blossoms recent
ly gives this advice to readers: About
the only thing which It is necessary
TO purchase is a glass funnel with the
narrow end drawn to a fine point In
stead Of the usual opening. This can
be obtained from any druggist supply
ing apparatus for experiments.
Some kind Of support will be neces-
sary for the funnel. and this might be
made out of twisted wire, or a retort
stand can be purchased at the same
time as the funnel.
You then need a small quantity Of
ice, and this is broken up into frag-
ments and then placed in the funnel
On the surface a quantity Of salt is
sprinkled. The fragrant lowers
roses. carnations or whatever kind
may be selected-are placed near to
the funnel. A small bottle is put un-
der the pointed end. which, 1t is re-
membered. is closed right up.
After an interval 1t will be seen
that moisture from the atmosphere is
condensing on the outside Of the fun
mel. The fragrance given out by the
flowers combines with this moisture.
which finally trickles down into the
bottle.

CHAPTER XIII.

Hall, meanwhile, was near the boil
ing point of his rage. He had been
defeated by Carolyn's cleverness. He
was furious at her, at himself, at
everybody. Here were two women,
now, who had hold on him-and be-
fore long there would be three! Never!
Hall swore it with a round oath. Mrs.
Royalton, at least, would not triumph.
She hadn't Ca-olyn's brains, she hadn't
Rosamund's disarming beauty. She
was, when 1t came right down to it,
more or less of a fool. Why not ignore
her, and make last attempt to win
Flodie? He looked up at the clock.
Good heavens! 1t was already twenty
minutes to twelve! And his four mil
lions were no nearer than ever. He
jumped up impulsively, and strode to
the door.
The company had about finished
supper. The little orchestra had
started up again, and had begun on a
new turkey-trot. AS a proof of its In.

dancing with the fair Rosamund. Mr..
Doremus, still surrounded and petted
by the three pretty actresses, was tell
ing funny story. There was a sharp
squall Of laughter as he finished.
Where the devil was Flodie? Hall
peered from behind the portieres, SC
as not to be seen himself. In a mo-
ment she emerged from the stockroom
with plate of ice cream, and, smiling,
passed it to Mr.. Doremus. Then she
looked up, and caught Halls eye. He

origin of Crescent.

Professor Ridgeway in England, ad-
vocated a new view, according to
which the Mohammedans got the idea
of the crescent, not from the new
moon, but from the ancient and long
continued use in Asia Minor of anu
lets made by fitting two boars' tusks
together at the base. The figure thus
produced certainly bears a closer re-
semblance to typical crescent, as 1t
is represented on the Turkish flag
than. does a new moon. The wide dis.
tribution of these amulets, however,
suggests that they may have had a
common origin in some symbol per-
tanning to the moon. They are found
as far away as New Guinea, while in
Africa they are in common use, made,
however of lions claws Instead OF
boars tusKs.
