FORENSIC WIT, HUMOR About three ounimers ago a well-known 'Philadelphia lawyer went svith his family to small seaside resort on the east coast, and boarded with a farmer who Vas In the habit of taking boarders. The next year he wrote to the farmer, and in hid letter aald; "There are several small matters that I 'desire changed ahould I decide to pass my holideys at your home.

PICKING ON THE LAWYERS. It certainly does slo a layman good to plek on the poor lawyers. An attorney- at4aw who wished to show his smartnese by quizzing an old farmer from the in- terior of New Jersey began by asking him if there were many girls in his neigh- borhOod. "Yes," replied the eld man, "there's a dreadful eight ot 'em -so many that there ain't halt enough reapectable husbands for 'em, and some of 'em are beginning to take up with lawyers."

AMBASSAD ORS A.nd the Curious Privileges They Can Claim. A1nbassadors -nave =IOUS privil- eges. Most people know that they and their households are immune from arrest, an embassy being considered a geographical part of the ambassador's own country, But there are many llril'IlegeS loss well known. The am- bassador is the only person about a court who has the right to turn. his back on the sovereign or ruler at the conclusion of an audience. And, curl- ouely enough, he always exercises this right, turning to bow after walking three paces. This of course refers only to state occasions. This worked rather oddly in Queen Victoria's time. To turn one's back on a lady would be rode, to rctire backward would be to resign a privilegeeso the ambassadors always compromised by edging side- ways tosverd the door like a crab. Anothelle privilege of funbasiadors tbe right of having both leaves of the folding doors ttrown open when being uebered het) the ruler's presence. No one else claims this privilege. Another highly prized privilege the ambassador -one that sovereigns must often regret -is that of being able to demand an interviesv when- ever he chooses, at any hour of the day or eight. The sword is the ambassadors em- blem of honor. It is a long rapier with a blunted point. One great diplo- matist, the late Lord Dufferin, used to say that the only practical use he ever found for it was to poke fires with and fits bills on. American ambassadors, bowever, wear neither, swords nor costumes. They otick to plain black. A Pagan Fashion. The fashion of Itemising little dogs as objects of luxury is not at all modern.

Siece the beginning of the negotiations concerning' Syria, friction existed be- tween Great Britain and France, the Arabs siding with Great Britain.

Herefords take their name from the County of Hereford, or Herefordshire in the west of England, where the breed originated, As far back as 1788 a noted English write.r On agricultural topics said "The Herefordshire breed of cattle, taking it all in all, may with- out risque, be deemed the first (best) breed of cattle on the island." To quote further he says, "Their fathe is altogether attleic, with the limbs sue- ficienty clean for the purpose of trav- eling and the feint:lee fatten kindly at an early age, the strongest proof of their excellency as fatting cattle. The color is a iniddie 'red,, with a 'bald face, the last being esteemed characteristics ot the Hereford breed" , Thus early were the quick maturing easy fattening propensitiee, and the white face. "The quality mark of beef cattle" fixed characteristics of ehe breed. The west of England afford& ideal conditions for the development of **eat cattle and it is from ouch feundation that our present sterefords have evolved. The feed available, in that section was principally pasture and not always too abundant at ehat The tenant farmers needed cattle which could convert the grass into a profit in the ahorteet thne and bred their Herefords for beef with this end al- ways in view. Since the earliest history of the breed the ideal of Hereford breeders has been to produce cattle possessed of a great constitution, rustling abil- ity, early maturity, easy keeping, anti quickly fatteniug quaittlies, we can readily understand the reason for their outstanding popularity all over the world at the present time.

The raising of beef cattle is pro- viding the avenue of escape from the ola conditions, since they utilize fee ds which otTi-elwite are to greater or lesser measure wasted, and require but little outlay for labor and atten- tion. The farmer who does riot raise live stock will sooner or later do so. or must make way for the modern farmer 1-erho does. Ile who raises scrub stock must use a good sire or fail to make a reasonable return, since each calf sired by a pure-bred Hereford bull will add $6 to $50 to the value of a calf out of a scrub cow., The intelligent aelentific progres- sive farmer of the present day is par- ticular to use a pure bred sire or else breeds pure breds for the others to use The business of raising pure bred Herefoad cattle is based on sound eco- nomic principles as mast be the basis for any successful business. The cost of a start is small, the cattle grow into money with little attention, and. op- portunity is knocking at the door of the energetic, progressive man or wo- man,.

Before the priaLleg of the Bible there was no English language. It Wail the Bible that standardized all the dialects of England and that bound them together into a living speech, and it was the Bible that was the foundation of the education. and cul- ture of England. As the English his- torian Green. says, "The English People became the people of a book, and that book was the Bible." To a large degree the same is true of Germany, but it is not necessary to go back to the middle ages to find the.Bible forming a nation's culture and fieing its lenguage. On many of the mission fields, eses- cially in Africa, the language of the natives has never been reduced to writing until tho missionary provided them with an alphabet in order that the Bible might be translated into their tongues, The Bible has then become both the language "extbook and the spiritual guide of these Afri- can nations, In mission scliools the world over the Bible is the language textbook. The people of the mission lands want their children to learn the western tongue, and they send them to the school. They learn the miss sloaary's language, but in tho learning they find the missionary's God. - Christian Herald. 4 4 Faultless in preparation.-Ilnlike any other stoniache regulator, Parme- lee's Vegetable Pills are the- result of long study of vegetable compounds calcuiated to -Stimulate the •stomachic functions and maintain them art the normal condition.
