A middle-aged woman once stood in 

 court as a witness. Among other trivial 

 questions counsel for defendant asked the 

 witness to state her age. 



"Sir," said she, "I refuse to answer that 

 question." 



"But you must," persisted the lawyer; 

 "why won't you tell the court your age?" 



"Well," replied the witness, "my age 1 

 only know by hearsay, and hearsay evidence 

 is never taken in court." 



"Choose pianos for your models, 

 Follow along their lines with care, 



For you will always find them 

 Either upright, grand or square."

It Isn't always possible to be exactly 

 truthful, but there is a right way to err. 

 You'll find some remarkable statements 

 in the Cadillac literature, but if there's any- 

 thing that isn't so, the difference is in your 

 favor. We'll send you booklet K if you'll 

 ask for it, and tell you where the nearest 

 agency is. A ride in the Cadillac will be 

 the more a revelation if you're familiar 

 with other cars. Cadillacs are $750 to $900.

For several years past, the Thibault (7 

 brothers, who live near White Face moun- 

 tain, have been killing deer and shipping 

 them in violation of law. In April last, 

 State Game Commissioners Shurtleff and 

 Wentworth went after these bristlebacks 

 and caught them at a country dance. When 

 taken into court, the Thibaults admitted the 

 killing of 20 deer during the past winter, 

 though the State game commissioners have 

 evidence that they really killed and shipped 

 over 70. 



The Thibault boys and their father were 

 fined $300 .and costs, amounting in all to 

 $999. It would take a lot of venison to 

 bring in that much money, and it is safe to 

 assume that these disreputable outlaws will 

 seek some more profitable employment in 

 future.
