Miss Emma | longed unspeakably for at least one nice looking costume. But for many | years she longed in vain. | ‘Then at last to the two sisters came a legacy. Emma's share of it was forty dollars. And she declared she was going to spend it on a black silk dress, She was a meek ilitle thing, and generally she obeyed without | Question every command of the imperious Almira. But in this one matter she was stonily firm. Accordingly one morning she set off by train to the nearest city to buy the dress. Several hours later she started back for Swallowficld, rapturously | happy. On the car seat close beside her was a parcel containing twenty Rea of serviceable bMck silk. For once she would be well dressed. | A man came down the car aisle carrying many bundles and lookise jfor a seat. He piled his bundles into the rack above « mma's head, Ores 5 ptt her parcel with them and sat down beside her, At 4 Mr. English's { the next station he got off the train in such a hurry A SHOCK. VENTS of the past few days have forced upon the eountry a pleasant view of its highest and ‘ new, sudden and by no means most august court. Mr. Hughes reached for his hat and jumped off the Supreme Bench of the United States with a lack of dignity, not to speak of ceremony, that must cause many Americans a sharp wrench i their ideas of that high tribunal, It would have seemed impossible that a Supreme Court Justice could dash into the political arena with so little expressed regret at leaving the high and honorable position he abandoned or with such total absence of formal relinquisiiment and leave-taking. The people of the United States had come to have a very differ-! ent notion of their Supreme Court and of men elevated to its bench, that he forgot his packages. As the train started on Sluneer, he hollowed in through an open window to Simeon Sern English—a rich and elderly Swallowfield man: “English! Just pitch me out my bundles--up in the rack by my seat. The well-meaning English seized the bundles and hurled them all out. The train was passing ‘a canal. Most of the packages tumbled into the {water. Miss Emma «hrieked in a frenzy of despair: “Oh, sir, you have thrown out my black silk dress! Mr. English was overcome with remorse, The more so when Miss Finma, j--whom he had never before chanced to meet— told him the story of that |dress. Ile promised to do all in his power to find the missing treasure, assuring |her he would have no trouble in doing #0, Sure enough, next day he called on the Singleton sisters triumphantly bringing with him a big parcel, Mi: Emma seized it in joy. But at first glance at its contents she exclaimed: Neither the court nor the country gains by the newer aspect in whieh it has been made to appear. As Senator Stone has declared, “the experiment is full of menace and danger. Hereafter it is more than probable that men appointed to the Supreme Court will begin to regard it not ag the honorable and final goal of their ambition but as a stepping stone to what they will, as Mr. Hughes has done, regard as a political advancement beyond the judicial position they hold.” H ee COG EE times handsomer than mine.
