The Quitman (Ga.) Free Press has
heard two good jokes on lawyers
One is on Judge Jim Guerry, of Daw-

was up before the Judge, charged
with some trivial offense.
“Haven't you a lawyer, old
inquired the Judge
“No, sah.”
“Cen’t you get one?”
“No, sah.”
“Don’t you want me to appoint ane
to defend you?”
“No, sah; 1 tho't 1'd

The other is on the legal fraternity

his deathbed. He requested that
two lawyers from a neighboring town

A Goon story is related by the Lewis

torney who went to a livery stable and
| hired a team for two or three hours, and
at the end of that time, in a state of ab-
sent-mindedoess, left it at another livery
stable, where it remained eight days, At
stable No. 1 there was no worry about
the team. They knew the attorney was
perfectly good for the pay. They know
if he kept the team a month that the bill
would be paid promptly on presentation,
They presumed that he know what he
was about and concluded it was his busi-
ness and not theirs, At stable No. 2
there was an equal freedom from ay
The attorney came there, left the team
and went away, saying nothing, They

Vv Vaaiuhing Animals.
No one can rod a book of travel in
wild countries without having brought
forcibly before him the grave fact that
many of the most interesting forms on
this earth are on the brink of Stormin

The Rose In Commerce,
In trade the rose is very valuable,
gs the attars of India and Persia sell
a very high price, and there are
large districts of rose gardens, in
which numbers of men and women
the harvest
March and April; In Turkey,
farming is largely carried
on, and a very fine attar is got from
the roses grown in Cashmere. Even
rose-water is a luxury which is by no
means to be despised as to price, but
the attar of roses Is immensely costly,
as it takes an enormous number of
flowers to distil even a few drops.
The attar is said to have been first
discovered by the favorite wife of
Jehan Jeer, through whose garden
ran a canal of rose-water, on the sur-
face of which the Begum found a few
irops of the precious* attar or oil
floating.
