What "carbler" Once Meant.


 "Garble," 'garbled." ''garbler." are words which nowadays convey quite a different meaning from that which was formerly accepted. "Garble" orig. inally- signiiied simply ito select for q purpose" at one time there was an officer. termed ''the garhler of spices" :" whose duty it was :o visit the shops and examine the spices. ordering the destruction of all impure goods. His duties were similar to those of the tn. spector of the modern health depart. ment. who forbids the sale of decayed vegeta bles or tainted meat. The word comes from a root meaning ito sift." The. impurities sifted out. have in the course of generations corrupted the term till "garbled report" is no long CT report wberefrom all uncertainty has been removed, but one that is full of misrepresentation and made mis- leading with. deliberate intent.

EARLY CLUBS IN AMERICA.
The First Ono Was Founded In Phils .
 delphia In 1717.


 delphia In 1717.
 The two earliest clubs in America. according to Colonel Henry Watterson in his History of Manhattan Club." were the Fish House club of Philadel- phia. founded in 1717. and the Ho- boken Turtle club of New York. which was started in l797. Then came the Sons of Liberty and the Sons of St. Tammany. which originated in -he brain of one William Mooney, an up- holsterer of 23 Nassau street.
 The Sons of St. Tammanv, Colonel Watterson finds. were so called after an Indian chief tn derision of Eng lands patron, St George, and one of their main objects was not. as some have supposed in the case of the Tam many organization, to put good Demo- crats into every job that paid any. thing. but ito arouse anti-British feel ing and to iisemminate knowledge concerning the principles Of true po- litical liberty" ...
 The Sons of St. Tammany. later the Society of St. Tammany. was opposed to all trends of aristocracy. and it counted as it's natural enemy the So- ciety of the Cincinnati, whose mem- bersnip was originally designed to pass down by inheritance.
 The first club of New York founded on the lines of the London social in- stitutions was the Union. in 1896

SWISS DIVORCE CASES.
The Court Always Tries to Settle : e. Then by Reconciliation.

The Court Always Tries to Settle : .. Then by Reconciliation.
 In one important respect the Swiss surpass other nations i'll the manage ment of their divorce cases. says an English correspondent.
 ln every town there is I kind of off cial paper known as the Feuille dAvis, in which one may read daily the f0l lowing announcements:
 M. and Mime. X., who ire in in- stance of divorce. are requested to ap- near privately before the judge. alone or with their lawyers. in order to come to reconciliation if possible"
 Before the beginning of every di. vorce case in Switzerland this notice is published and sent out to the interest ed parties. leaving the couple. of course. free to attend before the judge or not. as they wish. Often the couple meet.
 Although tbere are no statistics pub- lished on the Subject. am told by a leading lawyer in Geneva whose spe- cialty is divorce cases that at least g per cent of divorce cases-':much to my loss. unfortunately" the lawyer added. with a smile-are settled by the paternal advice of the judge at these meetings out of court.
 In fact. Swiss lawyers will not defi- nitely take rp divorce case until it has passed through tbe reconciliation process.
 If one of the couple does not attend i'm ronHazvn1a thic r1oOua fhnf thu al r. fair is to be fought out. but i'll any case Swiss divorces are not expensive.-Sap Francisco Chronicle
