But to return to Hie llttlo old

"The fingor Qf Justice" hud been
widely, advertised to niipeair at a
certain theatre In San Jose. The pap

The iwor'il wont round that hero was
a picture the like of which had not
been seen before.
Tho little old lady adjusted her
double-loiloel spectacles and read
what the papers had to say.. Shu
listened as her friends talked of the

Understand she had always pooh

"Bosh," sho toimed them.
She, who had actually seen Sara

"Never!"
But somehow all the talk about
"Tho Finger of Justice" roused hor
