The fallibility of expert testimony, which under stress of clever cross ex- amination tends to the too decided statement, is amusingly revealed in “Science and the Criminal,” a book by C. Ainsworth Mitchell, the head of the inspection bureau of Scotland Yard. Nethercliffe, who was the chief handwriting expert in the days when the witty Lord Brampton was at the bar, had such faith in his methods that finally he came to believe that he could not make a mistake, In a case in which he was under cross examination by Lord Brampton, then Mr. Hawkins, Nethercliffe had claimed that his system gave infallible results and had further stated that his son, whom he had trained, made use of the same system. “Then,” said the wily advocate, “your son, working on your system, is as good as you are?" “Yes,” replied the father, with some pride in his voice, “he is.” “That is to say. he. too, is infalli- ble?” “Yes," “Well, again replied the witness. now, Mr. Nethercliffe, was there ever a case in which you and ; your son appeared on opposite sides?” Nethercliffe tried to evade the ques- tion, which, he complained, was an unfair one, but on being pressed was forced to admit that on a certain oc- casion he had given evidence on one side and his son upon the other. Swift came the unanswerable retort: “How comes it, then. that two in- fallibles appeared on opposite sides?” A FAIRLY BIG TREE. The One McDougall Said Was Blown Down In Venezuela. ‘Walt McDougall, the caricaturist, was sitting in the Friars’ club in New York one night discussing everything in particular when the subject of big trees came up. one of the party claim- ing that he saw the stump of a red cedar in California so large that 200 couple danced on it at the same time. “1 grant you they have some big trees in California,” said McDougall. “but listen to this one. My uncle, who owns a very large ranch in Venezuela. went out one morning after a heavy windstorm and found that a huge cot- tonwood on the bank of the river had blown down. the branches of which were resting on the other side. He also discovered that 3,000 of his cattle were missing and on searching found the missing stock on the other side of the river. An investigation quickly followed, when they found to their surprise that the tree was hollow, which afforded a bridge across the river, through which the cattle stray- ed. After the men had succeeded in driving the stock back through the trunk of the tree it was found that thirty-six of the steers were missing. Another vigorous search was made. and where do you suppose we found them?"* asked Walt. “Heaven knows,” said the red cedar man. “Where?” “They had strolled off in the hollow branches of the tree,” said McDougall. —New York Telegraph. The Swiss Congress. The regular sessions of the Swiss congress begins in June and December and last only about a month. Extra sessions are very rarg. As one mem ber remarked. the idea Is to have ax much real legislation done among the people as possible. while the duty of the legislative bodies is officially to re cord public seutiment as expeditiously as possible. The proceedings of the Swiss legislature are extremely inter esting to an American. Discussions take place either in French. German o Italian, according to the inclination oi the legislator addressing the house and a colloquy may embody all three languages. Formal readings are in French, but discussions are usually in German.—National Magazine. The Call to Individuality. No man thinks his own thought: no man uses his own eyes: no man stands upon his own feet; no man walks alone We go in flocks; we lean on others; e follow the multitudes blindly; we bend our necks to the yoke of public opin- fon; we have no self reliance. “The only virtue we have Is conformity. The demand of the age is for men and women of character who are self poised, self reliant, independent and self assertive. Society follows cus- toms and routine. The redemption of the race is in the originality of individ- YEOMANS. Meetings the first Friday evening of the month at the home of Mrs. H. F. Schmidt, 306 Third street.

Did you propose to Vivian?” “No. She made the proposal before I had a chance to say anything.” “She did? What did she say?”’ “She proposed that I should leave the house immediately, and I accept- ed.”—London Telegraph. A Business Woman. “His wife is a business woman, all right.” “What makes you say that?” “She’s installed a time clock in the ball, and he has to punch it when he goes out nights and when he gets back.”—Detroit Free Press. Biliousness is due to a disordered condition of the stomach. Chamber- lain’s Tablets are essentially a stom- ach medicine, intended especiaily to act on that organ; to cleanse it, strengthen it, tone and invigorate it, to regulate the liver and to banish biliousness positively and effectually.

The painter Apelles. who tiourished in the time of Alexander, was shown a pictare by an inferior artist wh¢ boasted of having sketched it out 1 an exceedingly short space of time. *Yes. I can see that very well,” said Apelies “but I am surprised that you did nct make several other pictures exactly like this in the same space of time." ‘We are indebted. according to tradi tion, to this same Apelles for one of our common phrases. The painter had listened with patience and profit to a cobbler’s criticism of the sandals in » picture. But when the cobbler began to enlarge the field of his criticism to other parts of the painting he received this rebuke from Apelles: “Shoemaker stick to your last.” A Natural Result. “When you were in Switzerland did your party climb the glacier you spoke of ?” “No.* “Why not?” “I rather think because they got cold feet.”—Exchange. Being alone when one’s belief is firm is not being alone.—Auerbach A VALUABLE SUGGESTION Information of Importance to Every- one. A great deal of pain and suffering might be avoided if we had some knowledge of physiology and the care of the body, particularly those parts that do the most work and should al- ways be kept strong and healthy. In an interview with a prominent physician he states that people should pay more attention to their kidneys as they control the other organs to a remarkable degree and do a tremend- ous amount of work in removing the poisons and waste matter from the system by filtering the blood. During the winter months especi- ally, when we live an indor life, the kidneys should receive some assist- ance when needed, as we take less ex- ercise, drink less water and often eat more rich heavy food, thereby forc- ing the kidneys to do more work than Nature intended. Evidence of kid- ney trouble, such as lame back, in- ability to hold urine, smarting or burning, brick dusk or sediment, sal- law complexion, rheumatism, may be weak and irregular heart action, warns you that your kidneys require help immediately to avoid more ser- ious trouble. An herbal medicine containing no minerals or opiates has the most heal- ing influence. An ideal herbal com- pound that has had remarkable suc- cess as a kidney remedy is Dr. Kil- mer’s Swamp-Root. You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by mail, absolutely free. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamp- ton, N. Y., and mention the Bemidji Daily Pioneer.
