Anions the ninny advantages of concentration

tagc. Such concentration leads tlio j
thinker to place an undue relatlvo v
value upon the subject of ills thought, v
A specialist in throat diseases Is apt to i
refer all the Ills man is heir to to the
throat. The professor of ancient lun- %
gunges cannot understand how a man ^
can l>e properly equipped for any professiou
without n knowledge of CJreck

end of man la to buy cheup and sell '

In the legal profession this species of |
? { monomania tends to make the court
JI room a tournament of lawyers. The .
J j real object of a court, to dc Justice, is (
? burled under a rank professionalism
that has grown up like weeds in n
flower garden.
Kdward Avery, a brilliant young 1
lawyer, was especially under the influence
of this professionalism, llavlug
been elected state attorney, he considered
It his duty to convict alike the
innocent and the guilty. As K'kiii as
his duty to the state had ended and he
heeaine an independent attorney lie
considered It his duty to secure the
acquittal of any client, whether innocent
or guilty, ills friends used to remonstrate
with him on the want of
j elasticity of his principles, but witliout
avail. lie was intensely logical
and could give the best of reasons for
^ Ids deductions, lie forgot that logic
Is but a machine which will grind out
anything that Is put Into It.
One day while Avery was practicing
011 his own account a man whose trial
for burglary was to come ofT immediately
sent for ldm and asked liim to
make his defense.
"But I know nothing aliout the case."
"Don't want y' to know uothiu' almut
the case. The more you know about
it the wo'se for me." .
Avery's fancy was tickled at going
into court to conduct a case he didn't
? know anything about. He prided IUtiii
self on his readiness and resource. He
| would add another to ids already large
V! number of nlnl'ioa thai lin u naail o>
^ telling his friends Illustrative of those
C faculties. '1 hi' accused man had hut
fC .>."1 t?> give him for a retainer, luit
V-, Avery vas n?'t after money. His ol>jeet
was to have an opportunity to
P? show what he eould do impromptu.
The ease eame off the same alter
^ noon. Avery was somewhat surprised
to see in the eourtro.au several of his
chums ,.uu?st Ju^of.Jly legal Ui'ofessioil.
hA was t..M that tliev had heard he had
taken a ease lie didn't know anything
* about. and they were eurlous <0 see
how he. would iiandle it. Avery was
pleased. This meant that they were
?; ; there to witness a hit of professional
ft fireworks.
Avery In summer lived in a handsome
suburban residence. In winter
he shut It up. went to the elty and lived
(' in apartments till spring. When the
t prisoner was brought into court and
the witnesses were got together, the
counsel for the defense was surprised
t to see among the latter facet of his
s neighbors in the country, ltut what
was ins astonishment when the pros
oeution brought out tlie fact that the
2 robbery had 1 11 committed in his own
iiousc.
Avery's frleuds wore watching him
' and when this fact dawned upon liim
they snickered. The young attorney
saw at once that they had placed him
in a position to defend his client from
robbing hint. Hut he was game. Not
the slightest change of countenance In
ilicated that his professional equanimity
had boon di.? r.rhed. lie listened
calmly to the evidence against his ell
ent. while the expression of his face
and quick flashings in his eyes told
that lie was straining Ills brain to tind
some weak spot in the prosecution,
sotne technicality by which lie might
secure the acquittal of his Mont.
The burglar li ul been seen coming
? down a trellis from mi upper stor.\ by
a man with whom Avery was well acquainted.
He had been chased, but on
the way had contrived to get rid of
[ some valuable articles. When appro
bended, he had nothing on him to con
; vlct him of theft. Of c nirse the Jury
were entirely Ignorant of the situation
k hiwl hnnn nlwNnf ' ?* ^ *'
ery's friends. When the prosecutor's
evidence was nil In. Avery took the wit
noss who had seen the burglar descend >
. the trellis and linked him how he knew
the prisoner was the name person. The 1
? witness could not swear that ho was.
lie had soen him run, and he hnd bee i
followed by a policeman and aevernl
ri- .u i. but the witness hnd merely
.i descend the trellis. What '
i he <.'.1 not know. Avery trapped !
hint into saying what throw doubt on
the flat of the Identity between the
luttn who had descended th- trellis and !
fhe prisoner, then showed how easy It
would he l^n- the 0:10 to he mistaken
for the other. lie closed by a powerful
argument against ruining 11 man's life
by evidence that was defective and a '
pathetic appeal for the prisoner. The '
Jury brought in a verdict of 11 t guilty. '
There was a dinner served that night
at the bar association club renins, giv- 1
, en by those who had played t'i- ! >Ue

[Original ] O
Having been commissioned by n pub- B
islilug house to write :i lite of one of K
Ouglund's great political leaders, I g
vent to London ami took apartments
vlicre 1 would be nearest the reference 9
ibrarles I should need to consult. One 9
lay while 1 was on the street the city ft
vns suddenly enveloped In a fog. It &
ivas so dense that I could it >t see my
tand IteM eighteen Inches from my 9
'ace. I could hear the shouts of tile fl
Irlvors In the street, who at once be H
,au to creep along and even at this ?
|iuce came Into frequent collision. 1 E
heard footfalls al out mo. ami now an l 5
again some one, doubtle s more used j
lo fogs and not to he stopped by them, b
brushed ag.vlust me. St Ulenlj I felt 1
a light touch on the arm, and a hunt) ?
f?litl down It nnd grasped mine.
"Show you the way, sir?''
I caught at the offer eagerly, for
there was confidence In the man's tone I
"Get me out of this," I said, "ami I ?
will pay you well." Then I gave hlni 3
my street and number.
lie moved off nt a pace that astonish- E
ed live. IIow ho dared proceed at what 9
on a clear day I would have cons! lorod 1
an ordinary gait I could n <t imagine. I
Now and again altove the confusion of |
noises I heard a tapping as of some c
one hitting the pavement with a stick. 1
Strange to say, we jostled no one, and ^
no one jostled us. but I could feel my fl
guide pull or push me t > one side or I
the other In order to avoid collision.
"Are you a stranger in London, sir?" a
he asked. |
"Yes. an American."
"An American? Then I am conduct J
ing a fellow countryman?"
llltlWI. mm viiun: Jt'U n? uf it inn
conductor in London?"
4,I cnine here to find a better literary j
field than ours in America."
"And got strandedV"
"Yes."
"1 am a literary man myself and am i
here now doing literary work, hut 1
have an order."
"You're fortunate. I had no orders.
I had some success at lirst. but my
wife sickened and died, and n y daughter
became a confirmed invalid. This j
reduced me to working on potboilers,
and at last"? j
"Even they would not boil the pot7" J
"They did till my daughter failed me (

by his misfortunes or through careless- ,
ness, wo were nearly knocked down by
some one proceeding more rapidly than
was safe. After this we ceased our
conversation. As to our location. I had
no knowledge of it whatever, but my
guide tohl me he knew exactly where
we were. In about an hour from our
starting he led me up to a door, which
ho opened, and we stood in the hall of
a tenement house.
"This is not my lodging house," I
said sharply, fearful that 1 had boon
tricked.
"Forgive me," said the man, who I
could now sin' was intellectual looking,
hut very shabby; "I live here. I have
brought you to my home to show you
what can happen to an American who
trusts himself on the literary sea of
London." lie opened a door and took
me Into a room, or, rather, two rooms
communicating. In one of them on a
couch lay a girl with the H iring eyes
and hectic ?he *k of a consumptive.
"I would otVor you some refreshments."
said the man. "hut there is t, it |
a crust of bread here. Wo have i.ei- i
thor fuel nor lights, and my poor i
daughter, far from having the delicn '
cies site needs, has not even ordinary
food." j
I am taking no credit to myself In
uayii! ti.at 1 lelieved their distress. It
would be a flinty heart that could refuse
a lell.iw countryman in a strange
Ian !. Whii 1 was listening to a more
detail story of their lives a ray of ,
sunlight came streaming in at the win- j
<low. and. taking a memorandum of | *
