came to an open court and. sat on
balcony looking into a courtyard,
and here was group of some fifty
insane men, and a little guard who
was with them.
And the visitor said to the guide,
'How many guards do you have with
those fifty mem"
The guide replied, Cone"
(Which one is he?"
"The little fellow?"
"Where is his rifle?"
"He hasn't any rifle"
He asked, "You mean to say that
that man takes care Of those fifty
men,"
The guide said, eyes, he is strong;
he can handle any one Of those fell
lows easily"
"Yet, but suppose they got to-
gether; they would overpower him
in minute"

fellows had sense enough to get to-
gether they wouldn't be in the insan
asylum"

There's an old English maxim,
by the famous old English Judge
Coke, that Every dog is entitled
to one bite" Modern application
of that ruling is to be found in a
recent court decision in Los Angeles.
A dog took nip out of a baker
boys arm. Damage suit was brought
The defendant said it was the dogs
first bite and no one denied it,
Said the Judge: "How shall dog
who never has manifested any vice
be supposed by it's owner to be OF
vicious character? There obviously
must be "a first bite, and hard as it
may be upon the unfortunate victim
of this, so to speak, maiden bite, he
apparently is left with out recourse
In which ruling f:1e sentiment was
combined with common sense.
