CENTRAL CITT.
From the Nonpareil.
The supreme court handed down a de
cision Friday ordering a new trial in the
case of Martha A. Crites against the
Modern Woodmen of America. The case
was decided favorably to Mrs. Crites in
the district court and was then carried
to the supreme court. It will now have
to be tried all over again. This is the
suit in which Mrs. Crites is suing for
the payment of $1,000 policy which her
husband carried in the Woodmen. The
society resists payment on the ground
that Mr. Crites was engaged in railroad
ing at the time of his death, which oc
cupation rendered his policy null and
void. Mrs. Crites, through her attorneys
claim that the rule covering this point
was not in force at the time her husband
was killed.

m. CASEY HAD SUGGESTION.

The women of the church In a

money to pay for decorating their
house of worship. They were told,
diplomatically, that if they would call
on Casey, who kept the leading sa
loon In the village, they might get a
good donation. They called. Casey
met them genially, listened to what
they had to say and promptly sub
scribed 500. This was so much more
than the solicitors had hoped for that
they were much flustered, and could
do nothing but stammer their thanks.
Finally one of them rounded to and
said: "Why. Mr. Casey, this is most
generous of you. It will allow us to
get what we want very much a fine
stained glass window."
Casey thought that would be. the
right thing to do.
"And. Mr. Casey." said the spokes
woman, "In view of this magnificent
donation, isn't there something you
would like to pufon the window, sen
timent or some remembrance, or
something of the kind?"

LEGS GROW SHORTER WITH AGE.
Fact Taken Note of by Observant
Tailor In Baltimore.
As a man grows older his legs grow
shorter. This Is a physiological fact,
and Baltimore is the seat ej its dis
covery. It all came out accidentally
when a man walked into a Baltimore
street clothing store and called for a
nair of trousers. 32 length. He tried
them on. They dropped on his shoes j
in a baggy fold.
"They're not 32!" he exclaimed.
"Yup," insisted the man, as he came
up with a tape' measure; "but," run
ning the measure quickly over the in-
side seam line, "you're not 32 your-1
self.
"I'm not 32! Why, you're off! I've
been 32 for the last six years."
"Jesso," said the man. "And now
you're 31. You've lost half an inch
leg length."
Tlie customer surveyed the man's
faceiwith a "qult-your-kiddln'-me" ex
pression. "Honestly." said the man, "it's a
fact that as a man grows older his
legs grow shorter. Ask any tailor in
town, and he'll tell you the same
thing."
A veteran tailor a man who has
measured men's legs for years and
years was hunted up.
"It's a fact," he said. "I don't know
just how to account for it, but it is a
physical fact that a man's legs grow
shorter every year he lives, if he Is an
average man. Myself, for instance I
am - not old, not 40 even, but I know
my .inside seam measurement Is three
quarters of an inch shorter than it
used to be. I'm not over-corpulent,
either. I think growing corpulency ac
counts for it. As a man develops a
bay window, fat develops on the upper
nart of- his lees, and our measure-.
ment from the fork of the trousers
down has to be reduced accordingly,
the' growing fat absorbing considerable
of the actual length. And just as the
leg length is reduced, the length over
the abdomen and hips is increased, be
cause it takes that much more goods
to make the distance."
Family Likeness.
During the civil war Col. E. J. Sher
man visited Washington, and called
upon his distinguished kinsman, Gen.
William T. Sherman. In "Some Recol
lections of a Long Life" he describes
the visit:
I sent in my card, and when I en
tered his room, be said:
"Well, Mr. Sherman, are we re
lated?" I answered: "Yes, general, but not
near enough to cause you any special
uneasiness." I explained to him just
what the relationship was; that we be
longed to the same "Sherman family;"
that we separated four generations
back from him.
"Well." said the general, "we Sher
mans all look alike."
After a little another card came In.
The general remarked that probably
the gentleman had never seen him.
and asked me to take his chair, which
I did. we both being in civilian dress.
As the gentleman approached, I rose
and offered him my hand, and as he
took it he said to me:
"I should know you, general, from
your pictures."
I replied: "I cannot claim to be
Gen. Sherman. I am onl- a colonel.
This." turning to the general, "is Gen.
Sherman."
"Well," said the general, "I had just
remarked to Col. Sherman that we
Shermans all looked alike." Youth's

The Real Immortals.
We have been building monuments
to those who could massacre the most.
In the cathedrals of Europe and in the
parks of America you will find ten
monuments to those who have de
stroyed their kind to every one of
those who have brought the world light
and life; but a better day is dawning.
Seven years ago, when France made
up its list of Immortals, Napoleon, the
greatest of butchers, headed the list,
but last year it made another roll of its
noble men, and Pasteur, the savior of
human life, stood first. There is an
other book which has the list of God's
Immortals, and above that list it is
written, "They that be wise shall shine
as the firmament and they that turn
many to righteousness as the stars
forever and ever." Homiletic Review.

Air's Weight.
There is no uniform weight for air.
For instance, saw the weight ofa cubic
foot of air at sea level Is 1,700 grains,
the pressure removed, say, by its ele
vation to an altitude of 10.000 feet, its
weight would be about the half of
1,700 grains. In other words, the cubic
foot, at ten or twelve thousand feet
above the sea. would expand to two
cubic feet, each of about 850 grains
weight.
