Oc'd Juries.
The sheriff of i\ certain county in
England, being of a jocular turn of
mind, quietly picked a jury of the
twelve fattest men eligible f< r the pur
pose -men so fat that when they ap
peared iv court and the time came
for them \n take up their position in
the jury box ;t was found that but
nine of them could be accommodated.
However, by rearrangement and
squeezing ard amid the boisterous
laughter of the court they filially suc
ceeded in crowding into their allotted
quarters—a packed jury In the most
literal sei^e. Following this fat jury.
the same merry sheriff had collected a
lean jury, thin enough to have been
accommodated In the jury box twice
over. At another time he gathered a
jury of barbers and. as a crowning
feat, a jury <if twelve men who squint
ed.—(lreen Bag.

SIGNATURE EXPERTS.
Bank Clerks That Can't Be Deceived
by Names on Checks.
A number of the larger banking in
stitutions employ from cue to half a
dozen men whose sole duly is to ex
amine every check that comes in
through the clearing bouse and vouch
for the genuineness of :;:<■ signatures.
To the ordinary citizen It seems
nothing short of marvelous that a
signature clerk will instantly recog
nize tl*> slightest alteration in a
nature, with thousands of checks pass-
Ing through his hands each day. many
of them drawn by depositors who sign
but a few checks in the course of a
year, but an expert signature clerk
can carry in his mind accurate pho
tographs of 5.000 or iir re signatures
and rarely has to refer to the signature
book. When not engaged with the in
coming cheeks the signature expert
spends his time In familiarizing him
self with the signatures of new cus
tomers. There is no room for un
certainty in his business, for if he
passes a bogus draft it will mean a
bad mark against him when promo
tions are in order, and to refuse pay
ment on a genuine check means a very
wrathful customer.
The signature clerk is also required
to see that no checks are post dated
and to look for checks on which pay
ment has been stopped.
In proportion to the number of
checks paid by a large bank event
business day the smallness of the num
ber of bad oties that slip through is.
nothing short of marvelous.—Harper's
Weekly.
BASEBALL INSTINCT. '"'
It Takes Quick Thinking Players to
Make a Successful Team.
The greatest difficulty in building up
ball teams in this day, when the frame
has become a business as well as a
sport, is in securing what we know as?
"thinking ball players." There are any
number of ball players in the minor
leagrues who have natural physical
ability, but it is very rarely possible
to secure men who have that peculiar
faculty of being able to think and act
simultaneously.
It is no reflection on a ball player's
general intelligence to say that he
hasn't that quality. I know scores of
players who are men of unusual in
tellect, but who are lacking in that
ability to think and act at the same
time. Give them a fen- minutes to
consider a problem, and they will ar
rive at a conclusion that is quite log
ical, but baseball games are not won
on logic. The plays that win are usu
ally the result of impulse. It is in-
Ptinet with some ball players to make
the proper play at the proper time.
It would be possible to count on the
fingers of the two hands the men in
the leagrue who are "quick thinking
ball players." The team that is bless
ed with a majority of that class of
players is the one that usually wins
the championship. A team must have
at least two thinking ball players to be
a contender, and if it has four the
championship is in Bight—John J. Me-
Graw in the Metropolitan.
The First French Newspaper.
It was under Ricnelieu that the
first newspaper received sanction and
eiicounijremont. says Thomas EL Wat
son in "The Story of France." Hith
erto the only such thing in France
had been an annual. This once a year
being a somewhat sluggish news ven
der, even for those times, iittle hand
bills containing news i?<»nis began to
circulate. A Dr. Renaubet in 1631 ob
tained a license from Richelieu to pub
lish a regular weekly newspaper, and
thus was founded the Gazette of
France. It was very modest, con
sisting of four pages, each containing
a single column. Louis XIII. was a
frequent contributor to this first of
newspapers and took special pleasure
in the work. The great cardinal also
wrote for it. his weakness being a
fondness for literary composition.

I Baitard's 1
I Snow Liniment I
Is a Healing Remedy for All Ailments of
the Flesh of Man and Beast.
The speed with Tvhich this splendid liniment heals up a bad
wound or sore has surprised and pleased those who were accus
tomed to the slower and uncertain effect of less powerful reme
dies. It mends the lacerated flesh so quickly that there is but
little time lost from work. In relieving- rheumatic pains, neural
gia, sciatica, it has done and is doing a wonderful work. Many
chronic victims of these diseases have found to their great satis
faction that it cures an attack in a fraction of the time required
by the ordinary treatment.
It'is equally effective in the flesh ailments of animals. Owners
of blooded stock value it highly for two reasons: It heals sores
and wounds quickly, and leaves no disfiguring scars.
This remedy is needed in every home. If its great power and
■ _ efficacy was generally known, no family would be without it.
