The professor of ancient laniingcs cannot understand how a man in lie properly equipped for any pro sslon without a knowledge of Greek id laitiu. To the merchant the chief nl of muu Is to buy cheap and sell far. In the legal profession this species of onoiuanla tends to make the court>0111 a tournament of lawyers. The nl object of a court, to do Justice, is nrled under a rank [irofcssiotialisiii mt has grown up like weeds in a Dwer garden. Edward Avery, a brilliant young iwyer, was especially under the inilu nee of this professionalism. Having eeu elected state attorney, lie considL'txl It his duty to convict alike the uieceut and the guilty. As s<*?ii as is duty to the state hud ended and he ecaine an independent attorney he insldered it Ids duty to secure the quittal of any client, whether iuno;nt or guilty. His friends used to relonstrate with 1dm on the want of lastlclty of his principles, but wit lint avail. He was intensely logical nd could give the best of reasons for is deductions. He forgot that logic i lint a machine which will grind out nything that Is put into it. One day while Avery was practicing 11 ills own account a man whose trial or burglary was to come off lniniellately sent for liini and asked iiini to uake ids defense. "But 1 know nothing about the case." "Don't want y' to know nothiii' about lie case. The more you know about t the wo'se for me." Avery's fancy was tickled at g'dng lito court to conduct a case he didn't mow anything about. He prided himmi his riMiilimwK iniil r?wnm*<s? 1 I ? vould add another to li i>t already la rye lumber of stories that lie was used to elllug his friends Illustrative of these 'acuities. The accused man had hut >5 to give him for a retainer, but Vvery was not after money. His obect was to have an opportunity to show what he could do impromptu. The case came off the same al'tcr10011. A very was somewhat surprised o see in the courtroom several of his hums, mostly of the legal profession, ind asked why they were there. lie van t . id that they had heard lie had nkeu a case lie didn't know anything ibout, and they were curious to see low lie would handle it. Avery was leased. This meant that they were here to witness a bit of professional (reworks. Avery in summer lived in n handonie suburban residence. In winter ic shut it up, went to the city and lived n apartments till spring. When the trlsoner was brought into court and he witnesses wore got together, the ounsel for the defense was surprised o see among the latter faces of his neighbors in the country, Hut what ras his astonishment when the present ion brought out the fact that the obbery had been conunitted in his own touse. Avery's friends were watching him, nd when this fact dawned upon him hey snickered. The young attorney aw at once that they luid placed him u a position to defend his client from olibing him. Hut he was game. Not he slightest change of countenance In icatcd that his professional ivpianiiuty had been disturbed. lie listened nlmlv to the evidence uirainst his ell nt, while tho expression of his face ml ij'iick flashings in his eyes tohl ant ho was straining his brain to linil sine weak soot in the prosecution, >1110 technicality l?.v which ho might acure tho acquittal of his client. The burglar liv.l boon soon coming own n trellis from tin upper story by man with whom Avery was well acualntod. lie had boon chased, but on he way had contrived to get rid of ome valuable articles. When appreciated, lie had nothing 011 him to con let hint of theft. Of course the Jury cere entirely ignorant of tlie situation hat had been brought about by Avry's friends. When the prosecutor's videneo was all in, Avery took the witess who had seen the burglar descend lie trellis anrl asked him how he knew lie prisoner was the suine person. The Itnoss could not swear that he was. It? hail soon hltn run, and he had been allowed by a policeman and several i; ova but the witness had merely descend the trellis. What ..i he ! not I;now. Avery trapped lin into any lug what threw doubt on he fact of the identity between the inn who had descended th> trellis an'', lie prisoner, then showed how easy It ,'ould lie <*?r the one to be mistaken [>r the other. Ho closed by a powerful rgumont against ruining a man's life y evidence that was defective and a uthctic appeal for the prisoner. The nry brought In a verdict of not guilty. There was a dinner served that night t ttie liar association club rooms, givn by those who had played the Joke 11 Avery. lie revealed the fact that e lind lo-t articles that had boon in is family for ) years by securing le acquittal -of his client, but lli.it ho ,'ould rather luive suffered the losatlian o so unprofessional an act as to turn u.iin-i ii t-nciii. lie iiiiiiik'i i n" J 4 j oiif nd nil for having Riven liiiu an op ortunit.v to prove that oven n.! !< : the Bverost temptation ho eonlil not l?e screant to his duties as an attorney.

Oae & day while I was on the street the city B was suddenly enveloped in a fog. It tj was so <lcnse that I cmi'l n >t set; tny B hand held eighteen Inches from my Eg face. 1 cotthl hear the shouts <>f the K drivers tit the street, wh ? at once lie p. ;-an t > creep along tin i even at this g titiiot I'tiimi Inl.t ffnononl culi iti 1 S* 3 hcunl footfalls about uio. and n<?\v and S again some one. douhtlo.s moiv usod ? to fogs and not t<? ho stoop.<d hy I!hmi JS brushed uj.tlust mo. Suddenly 1 felt ! R a light touch on the arm. and a hand S slid down it and grasped mine. "Show you the way, sir'.'" I caught at the offer eagerly, for ? there was confidence in the tnan's t>>ne St "Get tne out of tliis," 1 said, "and 1 will pay you well." Then I gave him L tny street and number. lie moved off at a pace that astonish (j ed tiro. How lie dared proceed at what on a clear day I would have consi lored ^ an ordinary gait 1 could not h ingine. Now and again nlrove the eonfusion of noises I heard a tapping as id' s > i ! one hitting the pavement with a sti-k |s Strange to say, we jostled no one. and j j7' no one jostled us, hut I could feel my i guide pull or push me t > en side or 7 the ether in order to avoid rolli-dm. "Are you a stranger In London, sir?" I w | he asked. "Yes. an American." Si j "An American? Then 1 am conduct g . lug a follow countrymen'?" "Indeed! Mow came you to be a f??ir ! coniluctor in Jxmdon?" I "I came here to flml a '? iter l:t. rary ' field than ours in America." "Aiul pot stranded?" "Yes." "I am a literary man myself and am \ here now doing literary work. I ait 1 ^ have an order." "You're fortunate. 1 had no orders. I had some success at first. lait my ^ wife sickened and diel. and t y daugiv tor I teen me a continued invalid. This reduced me to working on potboilers, - } and at last"? "Even they would not boil the pot?" "They did till my daughter failed me ? as an amanuensis"? At this moment, whether the man's uiind was taken from his present work A by his misfortunes or through careless ? ' ness, we were nearly knocked down hy some one proceeding more rapidly than 1 was safe. After this we ceased our ' conversation. As to our loca'iou, 1 had ! | | no knowledge of it whatever, but my ! ? guide told ino he knew cxactlv where ! ? f.pproaelicd her with a sad heart. H ? 5 I can never forgot the look of grnli 8 J ^ tudc that accompanied tin* gh I'm* wordS Only an exile who had hem succored E by one from her native land /ould have E i ; felt as she felt.

On leaving him I laid some hank 1 1 1 notes 011 the table and called his at tention to them, lie went to the tnhl I and felt over it till he touched them. j He was stone blind. i?. \ When I finished my labors, which , , 1 did roon after Ids daughter's death, hi ^ j J 1 took film with me to Amerl a.
