Summons By Publication.
Humility’* Power.
A woman once came to the cave of a
sage who was renowned for his pro-
found analysis of her sex.
"Father,’’ said she, "let me Bit at
your feet awhile. I am but a woman—
faulty and foolish and weak—but I
would fain he the pupil of your learn-
ing and the disciple of your virtues.”
And the sage, secure In his wisdom,
consented.
Then he laid himself down to sleep
In the shade of a rock, out of the glare
of the sun. When he awakened he
was blindfolded and bound hand and
foot—a prisoner to love.
He had protected himself against
every feminine weapon except the
most dangerous one—humility!—New
York Evening Sun.
Beginning of Jury 8ystem.
The Jury system with twelve men
comes down to us from the time of
viking invasions of England, those peo-
ple customarily dividing their lands
Into cantons, and each canton Into
twelve portions under twelve chiefs.
These passed judgment on the more
serious criminal and civil cases and
the custom has outlasted all the Inter-
vening centuries.
