Reasonable Doubt"

Ordinarily everybody knows what
reasonable doubt" means, and what
the law means when it says that the
prisoner cannot be convicted If the
Jury has a reasonable doubt of his in
nocence. But when the Judge gives
a dozen instructions on reasonable
doubt il is clear that nobody could
understand what it meant.
Saint Augustine. when questioned
about a doctrine of the church. said:
IF you ask me, don't know; but
If you don't ask me, know very
we'll"
The result is, in any important case,
that the confused jury goes out to
find a verdict, taking with them an
armful of instructions. Half of these
instructions will tell them that II they
believe certain things, they must find
the prisoner guilty, and the other half
will tell them that il they believe other
things, they must acquit the prisoner:
and sometimes these instructions will
be so drawn that, upon the statement
of the same beliefs, one instruction
tells them to acquit the prisoner and
the other tells them TO convict him.
So they do not know what TO do and

hospital for soldiers was surprised to
hear one of the patients being ad-
dressed by the nurses by his Christian
name, it being customary to address
patients by their surnames only. Upon
inquiry as to why this distinction was
accorded to the particular soldier re-
ferred to, the reply received was:

TIME TO SELL THE BR0ILERS
Surplus cockereIs of Quickly Maturing Breeds May Be Marketed to
 Good Advantage.

 Surplus cOckerels. particularly those of the higher and more quickly matur- ing breeds, may be marketed now to advantage. Poultry raisers. particu- larly those not largely engaged in the occupation. market their surplus cock erels sooner or later All realize that cockerels of the lighter breeds become q nuisance very early in life and for that reason it is very desirable 10 get rid of such at the broiler age. This is comparatively easy to do, as broilers are used at all seasons in the larger cities. So active, in fact, is the de- mand for chicks under two pounds that often price of at least two cents q pound above other quotations is of- fered for them.
 While chicks of the broiler size are always salable, it must be borne in mind that they will not always bring the same prices, and that the present is the time of high prices, whieh-at the top about July 1-drop soon after wards, and with accelerated rapidity at the season advances.
