A girl who fell into the river and was swept down by the current finally seized a bush on the bank and drew herself to shore. 'J' he owner of (he laud on which the bush grew lininedlaiely claimed a reward of -I shillings because his bush was there and had saved her. Her father refused to pay, and there was a lawsuit. What the law has (o decide Is whether drowning people can make use nf hushes on the bank with out paying for the sinne or whether the assistance of the said bush Is worth a certain sum of money. In China If a person falls Into the water no one must help liliu out, but at the same time a spectator cnu be lin prisoned for not advising the victim to stay on dry bind.

To begin with, the navel orange of California Is an exotic, reaching Ms present habitat nfler devious wander lug. And, be it ever so sweet lasting, If Its skin has had Its la-auty marred It scarcely ever gets farther than , tho orchard where It grew.

"There Is a certain gnawing uui-er taluty about calling on people who speak a different language from their servants," remarked the woman who does.
