Any man familiar with medical sciencs knows thatpo one can examine a piece of dressed beef and detect dis- ease except an expert, and he can do it only by dint of a microscopic examination, To assert that Market Master Smith is required or expected to keep diseased meat off the market displays a wonderful degree of ig- norance, There is a peculiar kind of kinship existing in this county and we would be glad to have some one versed in the laws of consanguinity explain the relationship says the Bardwell Star. A married B's daughter and several children were born as a result of the union, Afterward B married one of A’s older sisters and several children were born to them, Query, what re- lation exists hetween the two families of children, There is one thing certain about this case, and that is that those chil- dren will never be out of all pation as long as they are content to study out their relation to one an- other.

It will amply repay any one for the time and trouble taken to go up and look at the building, which is only one of the many good things this council has provided for our safety, convenience and welfare.

Speaking of Judge J. I.

Bradley . honored himself and the state by appointing Judge Landes to hold the position until the time at which the law re- quired an election to be held. He has filled the position to the very highest requirement of law and jus- tice, and has made a record of which any man might be proud. He has stood manfully to his position and has rendered opinions that afe models for clearness, precision and justice Many people hoped that he would be continued upon the bench, while they knew that the majority against him, But he went down in defeat, with his flag ton) and unstained by any act beneath the dignity of an upright judge.
