It Took Patrick Henry Six Weeks to Prepare For the Bar. Patrick Henry when hLe was & young married man of twenty-three ‘was a complete tailure. He had tried clerking, farming and keeping a coun try store, all with equally negative or disastrous results. “Best of all,” he said cheerfully to himself, 1 will become a law; 4 Six weeks be allowed himself as a matter of formality to prepare for the bar. During this time he read one book, “Coke Upon Littleton,” supple- mented by an equally strenuous pe- rusal of the “Digest of the Virginia Acts.” ..His examiners, .Wythe, . Pendleton. Peyton Rardolph ahd John Randolph. hardly knew whether to be more amazed at bis ignorance of law or his profound knowledge of history. After no little deliberation he received his license. “Mr. Henry.” John Randolph ex- claimed enthusiastically after his ex- amination of the young neophyte, “if your industry be only balf equal to your genius 1 augur that you will do well und become an ornament and an honor to your profession.”—Green Bag. Queen Bess’ Wardrobe. Royal annals have never recorded a more varied and extensive wardrobe than that which belonged to the *‘vir- gin queen.” Even at the age of sixty- eight, when she might be supposed to have outlived her youthful vanity, she possessed 99 complete official cos- tumes, 102 French gowns, 100 robes$ with trains and 67 without, 126 an- tique dresses, 136 bodices, 125 tunics, not to mention such trifles as 96 man- tles, 85 dressing gowns and 27 fans. It is possible that she had an ugly foot, for she possessed only nine pairs of shoes, which, considering ber ex- travagances ‘in other articles’ of ap- parel, must have some meaning. At her death 8,000 articles were found duly cdtalogued in her wardrobe which had adorned her proud person. Winter and Summer Sun. The sun is nearer to the earth in winter than it is in summer. It is not distance that determines the amount of heat that we got from the sun, but the length of time the sun is above the horizon and the direction in which his rays strike us. In summer, al- though much farther from us, the suh is daily above the horizon much longer than when he is nearest, at the winter solstice, and this continued action pro- duces the summer heat. In addition to this is to be reckoned the fact thar in summer the force of the sun’s rayu is more perpendicular to the earth's surface, while in the winter they are oblique. In the case of the perpendic ular ray the heat stays, while in that of the oblique ray it “glances off,” so to speak. Importance Recognizea. “Do you think that man fully. appre- ciates the importance of the office to which we have elected him?" said one constituent. “1 guess he does,” replied the other. “The first thing he did was to say it ought to command a larger salary.”— Washington Star. Bean Ballots. Greeks and Romans of the ancient ‘world invariably used white and black beans for voting at trials. the white bean signifying acquittal and the black one conviction. : Co to Him for Farm Loans JOHN G.
