"Jed Blake to the bar,” ordered the judge In a rural Alabama court. A big. hulking negro ambled up to be arraigned for murder. “Jed,” began the Judge, “you are charged with the gravest crime known to the law, that of taking the life of a fellow man. tine of the forms of pun ishment for murder Is death. Have you made any arrange men ts for your defense In this case. Jed?" “No, suh. Jcdge. I ain' done nuthln'.” “Have you a lawyer, Jed?" “No, suh. Jedge. I aln' got no law yer. I aln’ got nutbin', Jedge." "Well, Jed." said the Judge, showing a little Impatience, "have you talked to anybody about this case?" “I talked to de sheriff some dat night when he come nfter me. jedge. but you kuows dat didn't do no good.” "For your Information, Jed. 1 will state Hint It Is within the province of this court to appoint counsel to any defendant wbo has none. I am now ready to appoint you a lawyer. Do you want one?" "No, Jedge. I don't want nuthln’,' replied Jed rather dolefully. "See here,” snapped the Judge, “1 won't have any more of this foolish ness. You say you don't want any lawyer. Well, then, what do you III tend to do about this case?" “Well, I tells you, Jedge. I a In' 'tendin' to do nuthln'. Ef It's Jes’ de same Io you. Jedge. as far as I's con cerned I's willin’ to let do whole mat ter drap right here."-Everybody's. Tim* Wa* Whin It Used to Be Con sidered Lucky. Abstract science has done much in brushing away the cobwebs of popular superstition, and abstract science es tablishes the fact that thirteen In an cient times had quite a different mean ing from the thirteen of today. Ori ental people found in thirteen some thing divine and hence something good. Thus it Is In the folklore of the Persians, the Indians and Hindoos. Old Testament Jews were of the same opinion, as Biblical students well know. Thirteen cities were especially dedicated to the priestly tribe; thirteen high priests descended from Aaron; thirteen kings sat in the high council of the ancients; on the 13th day of the month Nisan tbe preparations for Passover began, and tbe holy incense consisted of thirteen different odors. It Is well known that all tbe nations of the old world were In more or less Intellectual rapport. Tbe ideas of one tribe descended to the other. But it Is certainly Interesting to learn that the figure 13 had Its sacred and divine meaning also in America of yore among the long since extinct tribes of the Incas and the Aztecs. The inhab itants of Peru counted seven days without any particular name In tbe week. Tbelr year bad seven times fifty-two days, or four times thirteen weeks. The father was compelled to support bls illegitimate child to. the thirteenth year. Tbe Aztecs had weeks of thirteen days, each with a special name. Their century had fifty-two years, or four times thirteen. Tbelr public archives were of circular form, with a sun In the center of each of the thirteen parts, and thirteen were tbelr tribes. THE HUMAN HAND. It* Relation to th* True Educr.lion of th* Young. No animal or bird enn endure tbe ex tremes of climate like man or Is at borne In so many different parts of the world. A dog. It Is true, will follow man anywhere, but only when food anil shelter are provided. Nor can any other creature subsist on such a varie ty of food as man can digest. He flour ishes on roots, herbs, grubs. Insects, fruits or fish, on which flesh eating an imats would starve, or he is equally pleased with animal and bird flesh on which herbivorous animals would sta rve. He can pick nuts with the monkey, catch flsli with the otter, dig roots with the wild pig. eat ants' eggs with the ant eater and grasshoppers with the snake. And all this is due to man's hand. Because bls hand could grasp a stone or a club man rose on his hind legs and walked and talked, His band Is the most wonderful of all tools. It twists like a monkey wrench, bangs on like a grappling hook, cracks like a nutcracker, picks like tweezers, tears like forceps, grubs like a gopher. This brings us to the first great les son of health and common sense. Man owes all to his hand. Train the child's hand, then answer the questions that the brain, which the band builds, will ask, and you have true education—edu cation at its best. Give children every kind of band work that their play In stincts call for—and their play In stincts are the deepest and most use ful In their nature—and then brain de Woman and th* Jawish Talmud. velopment will follow as naturally as Tbe Jewish Talmud has these sen the night follows day.—San Francisco fences about women: "A good wife is Chronicle. heaven's noblest gift.
