. Judjes’” Wigsi The wig is only worn by English barristers to give them a stern, judi cial appearance, and no one can su that it fails in this respect. The cus- tom was originated by a French judge in the seventeenth century when, hap- pening to don a marquis' wig one day. he found it gave him such a stern and dignified appearance that he decided to get one for himself and wear it at all times in court. This he did, and the result was so satisfactory from a legal point of view that mnot only judges, but barristers also, took up the custom throughout Europe.—London Graphic. Acquitted. “Sir!” said the young woman, with what seemed to be indignation. The young man looked embarrassed. “Yes, I did kiss you.” he admitted, “put 1 was impulsively insane.” “That means that a man would be a lunatic to kiss me?” “Well, any man of discretion would be just crazy to kiss you.” This seemed to end the strain, and. no jury being present to muddle af- fairs, a satisfactory verdict was reached. THE TEST OF MERIT Bemidji People Are Given Convinc- ing Proof. No better test of any article can ‘be made than the test of time and this is particularly true of a kid- ney medicine. Doan’s Kidney Pills have stood this test and stood it well. What better proof of the merits of this remedy could you demand, than the statement of a Bemidji resident who bas been cured and has stayed «cured? Read the following: Mrs. Ella Barett, 723 Irvine Ave., Bemidji, Minn., says: “Siace Doan’s Kidney Pills cured me three years ago I have been as free from kid- ney trouble if as I had never had it My system was filled with uric poison that my kidneys failed to remove and at times I was very nervous. I had dull pains in the small of my back and I knew that 1 was in need of a kidney medicine. In a short time after I began usine Doan’s Kidney Pills, I improved and it did not take long to re- store me to good health.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Head of French Cabinet Will Reorganize Ministry. _— CHILD BURNED TO DEATH Father Severely Injured in Attempting to Extinguish Flames. Mitchell, S. D, Nov. 3.—The six- year-old daughter of Irvin King, who lives on a farm near Fulton, is dead of burns. Her mother left her and three other little children in the house and went to where her husband was working, a block from the house. A few minutes later she saw the little girl running toward her with clothes ablaze. Re- moving her apron she wrapped the girl in its narrow folds, but failed to extinguish the flames. The father then seized the child and, running to a watering trough, im- mersed the little body in the water, extinguishing the fire. The father was burned severely about the face and neck. The child died seven hours later. TRAINING SHIP IS ASHORE Minnesota’s Naval Vessel Near Belle Isle. Detroit, Nov. 3.—The training ship Gopher, manned by a number of Min- nesota naval reserves, ran hard aground at the head of Belle Isle, op- posite this city. She was bound from Duluth to Toledo, where a new engine is to be installed. A tug and a ferryboat pulled at the ship all day but she refused to stir from her berth in the mud. She is not thought to be in danger. The Gopher was formerly the United States steamship Fern. Aground The Ham Fair at Paria. A feature of Parisian life is the ham fair which is held on the Boulevard Richard Le Noir. The name of this fair is wholly misleading, for as far as I have ever seen hams are the very last thing any one ‘ever buys there. Old b and copper curios, quaint Jewelry, rare china, lace, tapestries and books are what most people go out to seek, and a sight not to be easily forgotten is the long, wide boulevard lined with ramshackle stalls laden with every possible kind of lumber and presided over by the most rapacious of brocanteurs. Out 6f piles of value- less lumber Americans and English diligently seek for their pet kind of curios, and there is not an artist in Paris who cannot point to some bit of furniture in his or her studio and say with pride, "1 got that for § francs at the ham fair." No one ever pays more than 5 fruncs, 1 notice, but, alas, every year these five franc bargains are becoming more rare, and even as housekeeping in Paris grows more and more costly so does the furnishing of one’s house to keep.—London Queen, Only a Question of Possibility. Among the customers of a tea store opened in the northwest part of the ¢ity the other night was a man who. after buying a pound of coffee, handed a counterfeit half dollar to the shop- keeper. “This money is counterfeit; I'm sor- ry, sir,” said the shopkeeper. “Yes; I know it,” replied the cus- tomer, grinning. “Got it here one day last week. and I've been saving it for you.” Theu, noting the smile upon the shopkeeper’s face, the customer said, evidently offended. “Perhaps you doubt my word?" “Oh, not at all, sir; not at all. 1 couldn’t doubt the word of so truthful a man. [ was simply smiling because I wondered how it was possible for you to have got the money here. This place was opened only night before last.” Thereupon the customer departed hastily after producing a good coin and slipping the counterfeit into his own pocket.—Philadelphia Times. Lancashire Humor. There was a Lancashire collier who went out on Sunday with his wheel- barrow because, as he said, “I’ve lost mi dog, an’ a felly looks sich a foo' gooin’ a-walkin' bi hisself.” Then there was the workingmen’s club committee which wanted to in- dorse the accounts “audited and found correct and tuppence over” and the customer who, on being told that the price of candles had gone up owing to the war, asked whether they were “feightin’ bi candle leet.” Also one recalls the laggard Lan- cashire lover who, when asked for a kiss, said he was *‘gooin’ to do it in a bit,” and the old ladies who praised a B certain Parwin clergyman as “a grand burier,” and ef the orator who trans- lated “Dieu et mon droit” into “Evil be to him what evil thinks!”"—“Lancashire Life and Character,” by Frank Orme- rod. Japan’s Giant Wrestlers. Japanese wrestlers are not to be con- fused with Japanese exponents of jiu Jitsu. The wrestlers belong to the older school, in which weight is a par- amount quality. It is a remarkable thing that a race which Is on the av- erage four or five inches under the Eu- ropean standard in point of height should have preduced a special cult of wrestlers who are giants in stature and strength. The leading wrestlers of Tokyo or Osaka or Hicgo are all men least six feet in height and weighing perhaps 200 pounds. They are a race apart. Wrest is wb oe- cupation which has been hapced aown from father to son fer 1 geuera- tions. And the ex ti of their prowess is that they 1 always been meat eaters, either from cha stoof Japan, been in the Dizmo Under Water. itation diamond is uever s brilliant 2s a genuine stone.

Consistent Theory. “Don’t you believe the husband is the head of the house and should have the final say?” “Certainly 1 do." “Then why don’t you come out in the open and say ol “Because my wife won't let me."— Exchange.
