compound of damaged flour. sawdust,
starch. hair powder. oatmeal, linseed.

given by the admixture of a small

LEGAL PALACES.
Ancient supsrstitions That Consciously
Cling to Life.

Ancient supsrstitiens That TsnaeieusIy
Cling to Life.
On the subject Of ''Some Popular
Legal Superstitions" Case and Com
ment says that there are many miscon'
ceptions Of legal doctrines. usually
tenaciously held and sometimes rashly
acted upon to the clients undoing.
some Of which are 10 grotesquely dis
torted that it is difficult to trace them
to their origin. One Of the most widely
spread but fortunately harmless of
these is that In order that a will disin-
heriting an heir may be valid he must
be "cut of with a shilling" This no
ton is erroneous, but Blackstone finds
Il foundation for 1t in the civil law and
says:
The Romans were also wont to set
aside testaments a being i%noficiosa.
deficient in natural duty, If they disin-
herited or totally passed by without
assigning a true. sufficient reason) any
Of the children of the testator. But If
the child had any legacy. though W
so small. it was proof that the testator
had not lost his memory or reason.
which otherwise the law presumed,
but was then presumed to have acted
thus from substantial cause. Hence
probably has arisen that groundless
vulgar error of the necessity Of leav-
lug an heir a shilling, or some other ex-
press legacy. in order to disinherit him
efectually."
Another erroneous idea. quite gener-
ally entertained. is that a signature is
not binding unless written in ink.
Still another curious notion enter
tanned In some localities is that an eye
witness may not testify to any occur
renee een by him through, glass"
This is probably attributable to the
fact that the im%perfections Of ancient
window glass might: deceive the on.
locker rs to what actually took. place.
The writer recalls an instance adduced
by his Instructor in physics while lee
turing on the refraction of light of
a windowpane in his house through
which ~passersby On the opposite side
Of the square appeared, on coming op-
posite to a church. to leap over the
steeple. A condition Of this sort
brought out on cross examination
might affect the weight, though not the
admissibility, Of the evidence.
