The Close Of the Court.
A TERM OF MUCH BUSINESS, INCLUDING
A LONG LIST OF DIVORCES.

The October term OF Supreme judicial
Court came to On end on Friday. 1t
Was very busy term during the ten
days that II was in session, and - usual,
the work done is not to be measured by
the number of cases which were given
to the Jury. It was characterized by
some large verdicts in damage suits, as
we'll 40 by the number of cases which
were started but did not reach the jury.
In the criminal branch considerable
business WAS transacted, though but lit
tie of it related to crimes of magnitude.
No heavy sentences were imposed, nor
was there any case of SURPRISING inter-
est. Only one criminal case went to
trial.
The divorce business exceeded that OF
sny term for some time, and occupied
the attention of the court for consider
able periods.

a Few Weeks.

Or. J. NJ. Gordon. president Of
Kendall college, talked to the Ad-
vertising club at It's weekly lunch
con at the Y. w. G. a. yesterday
noon on the subject Quality First"
Dr. Gordon emphasized the need Of
quality In articles OF merchandise
or in the giving Of service.
He declared that the business man
who gives quality first-who backs
up hts wares with guaranteo-is
the man who makes the greatest
success in the long run, despite ap-
pearances to the contrary which
might accompany his beginning of
the quality first motto.
Or. Gordon closed with n declara-
tion that Kendall college Is striving
to give quality first In its methods.
and invited club members to closer
Cooperation with the school, prom
Using in return the schools support
TO every worthy undertaking.
II was decided TO hold an Ad
club picnic in the near future, prob
ably at Sand Springs park. Accord
ing to I. q. Long, president of the
club, the picnic will not be tho usual
affair in which our wives work all
the day before In preparation, and
then work all through the day of
tho picnic serving it." His plan is
to have the eats prepared be-
torehand at the park so the women
will enjoy equal freedom with the
men before. during and after the
picnic. The date has not yet been
announced.

Their thirst was remarkable, for

"Tul-Tul," as the natives call It, Is
the most wonderful vegetable plant in
the world.
1t grows on certain South Pacific
islands and in appearance is like a
giant turnip, but blood-red in color.
To the white man, it is very tough
and tasteless vegetable. To the ma
tlves however, 1t is a main item Of
their diet. They cook 1t and mix 1t
with their coconut and breadfruit, for
it is supposed to be very nourishing.
They cultivate the plant in rough
sort of fashion in large bitches or
swamps.
Its most peculiar feature is that It
has TO be fed, and for this purpose the
native children go over the island col
lecting all decayed vegetable matter.
This is soaked in plenty Of salt water
and is then taken in armfuls to the
plants and put In the center of the leaf
stems or on the short, thick stem from
which the leaves spread out on every
side.
Slowly, but surely, the decayed mat
ter disappears, the leaves stiffen and
spread out erect-signs. apparently.
that the plant has dined heartily, for
1t really is case of feeding a plant.
There is no opening of the stem or
leaves; the food is slowly and gradu-
ally absorbed in a silent and wonder
full manner.-Boston Post.
