lower tiers. lie was pleased with
the quality. Assured that it fairly
represented the quality OF the whole
crop. he made no further examina-

In the contract that was drawn up,
no expressions Of warranty as to the
quality We're made. Smith later found
that the larger portion OF the tobacco
WAS Of poor quality.
Facing a large loss, Smith sued
Davis, declaring that the price he had
paid entitled him to good grade of
tobacco.
But Smith lost his case, the court
stating:
Although there are exceptions In
certain class OF cases, it is well
established that, on the sale or ex-
change Of goods. a warranty as TO
the quality is not implied in law. In
most sales, the law presumes that a
purchaser will take care of his own
interests, and that when he distrusts
his own shrewdness and judgement, he
will protect himself by requiring an
express warranty. In all cases where
he has an opportunity of inspecting
the goods, and fails TO do so, he can.

not come up to his own expectations

and he was so startled that he turned

OF all the people in the Green

one who never hurries. or seemingly
never hurries, is Jimmy Skunk lie
never seems to have cause to hurry.

the idea that Jimmy skunk cannot

Among the drapery fabrics the
toiles de Jony still hold a high place
of honor. This is due partly to the
popularity of French furniture and
partly to the versatility Of these fab
rics Printed in monotone effects, they
offer a welcome change from too vivid
CretOnnes.
The pattern shown here is very
old one. showing naive scenes Of rustic
life. Ii may be had printed in red,
blue. green or mauve on rich cream
ground.
In the French interior If is quite
usual TO see fabrics of various pat
terms in the Same room but they are
sufficiently different in character so
that the effect is not displcasinc.
Thus. in a room with this red and
cream toile. one might find dark
blue checked Bingham and a vari-
colored percale patterned III small

Each link in the chain forms one

Moreover, as each link is slightly

MUNCIE, Ind, Aug. 3.-Two new
factors have been injected into the
motor bus war here--a statement
by Prosecutor Joe Davis that he
will file criminal charges against
drivers guilty of neglect or reckless
driving and a $4,000 suit for dam
ages and injunction filed on behalf
of the Union Traction Company
against a group of independent bus
operators.
The prosecutors declaration Of
war followed several bus accidents.
A Denney bus, driven by Orville
Lyons, was struck by Union Trac-
ton machine, the rear of the Dem
ney bus being smashed, as the latest
mishap in the transportation strife.
Arthur w. Brady. Union Traction
receiver, alleges in the damage and

independent bus owners has been
harmful to his company; that BUSES
are operated at dangerous speeds
and that defendants drivers crowd
buses close to street cars in the
keen competition for passengers
Hearing on the case has been set
Friday morning, when an effort VIII
be made to have Judge Clarence
