BY THE COUNSELOR.

A debt of 5000 worried Samuel
Thompson. We wished to avoid suit
because he knew it would result in
another row with his wife, and these
were frequent enough as it was.
Samuel went to his creditor to oo-
tain an extension, but the creditor
was adamant and demanded the
money at once. However, the credi-
tor agreed to accept note provided
that Samuel's wife signed 1t. sam
knew that his wife would not sign the
note. but promised to bring it back
as requested. When he did bring
It, he omitted to say that he himself
had signed his wife's name.
The note being unpaid, Sans wife
received her first intimation that she
was involved when suit was instituted
against her husband and herself. She
defended on the ground that she had
never authorized the signing of her
name.
The court held Sans wife free from
liability on the following provision in
the uniform negotiable instruments
act:
when signature is made without
the authority of the person whose
signature it purports to be. IT IS
wholly imperative. unless the party
against whom it is sought to enforce
such right is precluded from setting
up the want of authority"

yard. So down inside Reddy was
chuckling more than ever as he tried
to imagine how Hooty, looking on,
must feel.
At the crack of the door Reddy
paused. He thrust his sharp, little
black nose into>the crack and drew
long breath. Hens! The scent of them
made Reddy CULVER all over. For a
few seconds he stood there without
motion He could hear the rustling
made by the big birds as they shifted
on their perches. He could hear them
talking sleepily as they settled them
selves for the night. His mouth be-
gan to water. His eyes cleaned
hungrily. Very gently he pushed his
nose in at the crack. The door swung
open little. Reddy pushed a little
more. The door swung still farther

moved swiftly. There was a plump
young hen on one of the lower roosts
within easy jumping distance. She had
discovered him and in the most fool
ish way was stretching her neck for a
better look down at him. In a mo-
ment she would give the alarm. Like
a flash Reddy sprang. His jaws came
together on the neck of that foolish
young hen, and she never did know
just what happened. Without pause
he darted out of the open door, taking
the young hen with him. Across the
henyard and out the gate ran Reddy

was all thought of HoOty. Gone was
all thought of anything but the de-
licious dinner he would have. lie
would carry it only far enough away
to feel safe and then he would eat 1t.
Out of the henyard. around the cor
ner, ran Reddy. That hen was rather
heavy. He didn't have hold of it in
the best way for carrying it. He laid
1t down for a moment. intending to
pick 1t up in a better way for carry
ing it. He lifted his head for hasty
look around. Just then he was blind
ed by a mass of feathers. There had
been no sound. IT was all so sudden
and unexpected that Reddy for a mo-
ment was confused But it was only
for a moment. Then with ii snarl of
rage he snapped his jaws together.
But all he got was a mouthful of
feathers. Rising just in front of him
was Hooty the Owl. and in Hooty's
claws was that chicken.
With an angry spring Reddy at
tempted to seize one of Hooty's wings.
But he was too late. Hooty was out
of reach, and with him went that
plump young hen. Hooty headed
straight back for the Green Forest.
Those hungry babies of his were to
have another chicken.
Reddy forgot how he had laughed at
Hooty. 1t was Hooty's turn to laugh
now, but Hooty didn't laugh. Hooty
was too much in earnest, too serious
for laughter. He had the dinner he
had come for and now he wanted to
get home with it TO the babies.
Reddy followed along for few
jumps. Then realizing how useless it
was, he turned quickly back toward
the henhouse. Perhaps he could get
another plump hen. But hardly had
he turned when he heard a door slam.
The farmer had remembered that he
hadn't closed the henhouse door and
was on his way to close it now. Poor
Reddy! 1t was no use to stay here
longer. SO, sore at heart and still
hungry, he headed for another farm
a mile away. Perhaps he would get
chicken there.

1t was during the time he would

II was because he was surveyor that
he was given important work along
that line, during which time he
learned the ways of the Indians.
When a peace was to be made with
the Indians, it was Washington who
was given that important mission.
When the United Colonies decided to
resist Great Britain, Washington was
the man chosen to lead them.
The preparation he had gone

Early American Furniture.

Let it be understood from the outset
that the only early or 'old" furniture
worth buying is stuff ready and able
to give good Service for dollars ex-
pended. Unless one can afford the
luxury of sentiment in buying furni-
ture, rickety old furniture is quite
worthless for practical purposes.
Many early American pieces are
we'll worth buying If they can be
secured in good or remediable condi-
ton. The early pine dresser is charm
ing and really useful. The open
shelves and cupboards below offer
commodious space for whatever one
wishes to store. The really early ones
extend their sides to the floor, and al
the bottom those sides are notched for
feet. The dresser is therefore sturdy
and solid.

Trick /. West opens the three of

the King and South plays the Jack
of Hearts. instead of his lowest
heart, to provide for two sure Heart
entries in Dummy If West holds the
Queen of Hearts. If South does not
play the Jack to the first trick he has
no assurance of two Heart entries in
Dummy, even though West does hold
the Queen: West might refuse to
cover the Jack if led, or might play
the Queen If the eight is led, thus
blocking one of the entries in either
case.

play of the Jack of Hearts to the first
trick, Dummy takes the trick with the
ten of Hearts and secures the lead,
and can re-enter with the Ace of
