MUST BE AWFUL EASY 10 BE A JUDGE THESE DAYS Oh, joy, let's all run for judge! trary. Indge It's a cinch. We don't have to know a thing. Fact is, the lese we know the better judge we can be. Supreme court says so in the case of E. E. Elston and wife against Nellie C. McGlauflin, administratrix of BE. O. McGiauflin estate. That case was about a slide of a hill on Queen Anne. Attorney for plaintiff argued the hill wae shaped one way. Attorney for fendant said it was the other way. “Methinks,” said the judge to himself, “T'll go out and see what the hill is like.” And he went. And saw. And made his decision in favor of the plaintiff. “Wow!” said the defendant's law- yer. “You had no business seeing for yourself. You must wait till the evidence is brought to you on the witness stand.” And he appealed, and the su- preme court sustained the appeal. Isn't it just lovely? We can go up to that courthouse and tefl Judge Smith the Smith building is made of green cheese and he's got to believe us until some lawyer gets witnesses to prove the con ‘Tho judge has no right to go and see the Smith building himself.

Brabson nodded absently Was it possible that no suspicion of the truth? With the changing of the mon goon came a change in Kelly. “You are not looking well,” sald Brabson wickedly one morning. j ‘There's a reason,” replied Kelly sourly, looking seaward, His tone; altered strangely. “I've just heard of a native in the jungle who hasn't paid his hut tax.

The gunboat was coming—and so was Dunga Dhu! “You'll come along, continued Kelly. “Ot course,” nodding. Kelly went “out for his hat, while Brabson , tiptoed toward his desk. His valise was under it, and into it he packed the loot of Bungawan. He grinned as he locked the valise within the desk. Then Kelly stood behind hi: “We'll be back before sundown, You needn't lock the office,” said Kelly, evenly. But Brabson locked the door. At noon the next day they were jetill searching for the native who Brabson |knew that there was no hut in the jungle. He knew the game.
