At the court of the Gwynedd kings the phy sician or surgeon ranked twelfth in or der of precedence among the household officials, and his fees were carefully de fined. For curing a flesh wound that was not dangerous the doctor was al lowed no other perquisite than such of the garments of the wounded person as were stained with blood. Rut for cur ing any of what were called “the thr. . dangerous wounds” he was granted a fee of and his maintenance during the cure, besides the blood-stained gar ments.

Yet the crime had been an extraordinarily bloody one. This Is certainly very singular. AN EXPLANATION. An explanation given by Dr. Adams, who was the first medical man to view the body, is worthy of attention. He considered that the wounds might have been inflicted by prods downward from the leg <d a chair, in which case the seat of tlio chair would preserve the clothe. , and, to some extent, the hands of the murderer from bloodstains The con dition of one of the ('hairs seemed to him to favor this supposition. The explanation Is Ingenious, but I must confess that I can not understand how such wounds could be inflicted by such an instrument. There were in par tlcular a number of spindle shaped cuts, with a bridge of skin between them, which are very suggestive. My first choice as to the weapon which inflicted these would be a burglar's Jimmy, which is bi furcated at one end, while the blow which pushed the poor woman's eye Into her brain w< old represent a thrust from the other end. Failing a jimmy. I should choose a ham mer, hut a very different one from the toy thing from a half crown card of tools which was exhibited In court. Surely, common sense would say that such an in strument could burst an eyeball, but eouhl not possibly drive it deep Into the brain, since the short head could not penetrate nearly so far The hammer which 1 would reconstruct from the Injuries would be what they call, I believe, a plasterer’s hammer, short In the handle, long and strong In the head, with a broad fork behind. But how such a weapon could be used without the user hearing marks of it is more than I can say It has never been explained why a rug whs laid over the murdered woman. The murderer, as his conduct before Uni- Ide and Adams showed, was a perfectly cool person It is at least possible that he used the rug as a shield between him and tiis victim while ht battered her with his weapon His clothes, if not his hands, would tn this way be preserved. 1 have said that it is of the first im portance to trace who knew to the exist ence of the jewels, since this might great ly help the solution of the problem. In connection with this there is a pas sago In Lambic a evidence in New York which is of some importance.

Having told her foole.- t friend all her troubles, and sigh ed so heavily she tested the staying powers of her straight front corset, she made a mental acrobatic turn from het domestic woes to the wrongs of the world. She attacked the daily newspa pers, referring to it In pompadour tones . as Tile Press. "If I had a voice in The Press.” she said, "I would make every news item in the paper an appeal to the heart. Ati 1 by that I mean the heart of the woman reader. The men,” reverting to her domestic woes, “have no hearts. “The Press tells of the fall of some town in Turkey, whose name is abso lutely unpronounceable. It tells what the effect, of this war will be on the map of the world, but not one hint is to how it will affect the price of Turk ish rugs!” Her foolest friend agreed that The Press was run by a lot of men who don't know anything, anyhow. "Why," continued Mrs. Appleton. in a ; sputter of indignation al the ignorance ! of The Press’, "one day I called up a I.ending Newspaper and asked the pop- < illation of Kalamazoo before the Civil! war, and do you know, the man who: answered the telephone' couldn't tell me? ! "And. just to test them, I called up five Beading Newspapers, and not one | could tell off-hand in what year tin : wife of President Madison died!" The foolest friend tossed her head. I showing* contempt for every one who ■ ever worked on a newspaper. Mrs. Lysander John continued in : more sympathetic tone. "1 am so sorry for Mrs. T ift. I know what, it is to I have to move and leave a clean house i for the next tenant." Then she expressed her deepest sym- I pathy for Emperor Wilhelm, who was j Jumped in the Reichstag, "though." she complained, "The Press is so ignorant it doesn't say if the Reichstag is a hotel, or part of his anatomy. One must guess so much in reading The Press these days!” TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. Brown—Yes, sir; I drove off from the tee. and my bull landed Just on the edge, on the verj- edge, of the next hoi".

Dear Miss Fairfax: I am twenty, and dearly I n lOV91 OV9 with a young man. and, oh, I love him so much that I would give inj life for him. But I don’t know if he loves me. I was out with him a few times, and he took me home from a dance. Now, do you think he loves me? And, oh. I am s « happy when in his company' Whenever we meet he always stuns to talk to me. He is so dear to me I just can t forget him. What shali I do to find out if ne really love« me? Oh, please help me. dolly dimples. He shows every- symptom, but yon must give such a serious ailment as love time to develop. Don’t let him see that you would give your life for him. On the contrarj let him see that you are not sure you would give more than an occasional evening. Be a little more indifferent than the tone of your letter would In dicate. DON'T TELL HIM NOW, Dear Miss Fairfax: Some time ago I met a young man of whom I have grown very fond. He cares for me dearlj- and hopes to make me his wife soma day. He works both day and night, as he supports his mother and is trying to gather something for the future. Last week I gave him an invita tion to a party. I also asked hint to go with me (as he would not go alone, being a stranger). He gava ■ me hU reason why he could not go, which I know was the truth, as his mother will not allow him to go with a Gentile girl. The next time we met he asked me who I went with, and he seemed to be disap pointed when I told him. Tha very same day he tried to put him arms about me before other boys (whom we both know very well), to which I objected. He grew very' angry and said if I really cared for him I would not mind him doing such a little thing before anyone, not alone close friends. I have never told him I cared for him. A BROKEN-HEARTED GIRL Marriage with him seems hop"lose for two reasons. It will be a long time j before he earns enough to support a wife, and the difference in religion does hot promise happiness. He shows a proprietary air toward you when no engagement exists. He is selfish. Try to forget him, my df-at. If his mother Trill not let him take yon to a party, do you realize how much more serious her objections will be when he takes you for a wife?
