[Original 1 .
Among the many advantages of con
centration of thought is one disadvan

thinker to place an uudue relative
value upon the subject of his thought.
A specialist In throat diseases Is apt to
refer all the Ills man Is heir to to the
throat. The professor of ancient lan
guages cannot understand how a man
can be properly equipped for any pro
fession without a knowledge of Greek
and I^tiu. To the merchant the chief
end of uian Is to buy cheap and sell
dear.
In the legal profession this species of
monotuauia tends to make the court
room a tournament of lawyers. The
real object of a court, to do Justice, is

1 Edward Aver;, n brilliant youug
; lawyer, was especially under the luflu

iunoceut and the guilty. As soon as
his duty to the si* re had ended aud he
became an Independent attorney he
considered It his duty to se. ure the
ac<iulttal of auy client, whether iuiio
ceut or guilt}, ills friends u-ed to re

One day while Avon was prat f Icing
ou his own account a man whos?* trial
fur burglary was t? conic <?tV Imme
diately sent for hiui ami asked him to
make his defense.
"But 1 know uothing aliout lliecase"
"I>on't want y" to know nothln' almut
the case. The luoru yon kuov about
| It the wo'se for nie."
Avery's fancy was tickled al g.dng
luto .vurt to conduct a case he didn't
know anything aliout. lie i rideil him
self ou his readiness and rpsoiihy. lie
would add auother to his already la rue
number of stories that he was used .to
telling his friends illustrative of these
faculties. The accused man had but
?0 to give him for a retainer, but
Avery was not after nioiiev. Ills ol>
Ject was to have an opportunity to
show w hat be could do lui|iromi>.
The case came off the saiuc sutor
noon. Avery was somewhat surprised
to see in the courtroom sevcjul <-f his
churns, mostly of the |c-:sl profession,
and asked why they weve there. He
, taken a case he didn't know anyt hlng
about, and they were curious to see
bow be would handle it. Avery was
pleased. This meant that they were
there to witness n bit of professional
I fireworks.
J Avery in summer lived In a band
some suburban residence. In winter
he shut It up. went to the city and lived
In apartments till spring. When the
prisoner was brought Into court and
the witnesses were got together, the
counsel for the defence was surprised
to see among the latter faces of bis
nelgbliors In the country. But what
was his astonishment when the pros
ecution brought out the fact tuat the
robbery had been committed In .'lis own
house.
Avery's friends were watchirg him.
and when this fact dawned npjn him
they suiekered. Hie young attorney
saw ut once that t!u-\ had pl.'ofi] him
In a positiou to defend his client from
robbing him. But be was game. N"t
the slightest change of countenance In.
?Heated that his professional equanim
ity had beeu disturbed. He listened
calmly to the evidence against bis cli

and qi'lek flashings in his eyes told
that he was straining his brain to tind
siime weak spot iu the prosecution,
some technicality by wl -b he might
secure ttie aoiuittal of his client.
The burglar had been seen coming
down a trellis from .ii tipi?or story by
a ma wiih whom Avery was well ac
quainted. He had been chas-ed. but on
the way had contrived to set rid of

followed by a policeman and several
Citizens, but the witness bad merely
setrii a man desceud the tiellls. What

iU:it into sayiug what threw doubt on
tile faet of the identity between the
ma. i who had descended the trtiils aud
the prisoner, then shov. .-.1 how easy it
would be for the one to be mistaken
for the other, no closed by a yuuv, ral
argument against ruining a man's, life

Youug Mrs. Theodore Fitch had boon
a' belle. Xler husband when lie married
tier bad misgivings as to whether she
wail Id settle dowu to the dfvotiou of
one mau or would still need that of a
?real iiumber. Mrs. Fitch, for awhile
at least, agreeably disappointed hlui.
sjiie was very fond of him and seemo l
to be satisfied with hiui alone, The
voung uieu to whoso attentions she
had been accustomed took uo further
interest In one who was happily mar
ried. This did not disturb her. So
U-aa as her changed life was new she
had no use for theiu. But when that
life had lost its llrst freshness and she
realized that her former admirers, buz
*injr about other luminaries, were en
tirely forgetful of her she felt a sink
iujr at the heart that surprised her.
From this time forward Mrs. 'Fitch
be . 'a u to piue for attention. She could
have hud attention, and all she want
ed. provided she chose to Jeopardize her
relations with her husband. Men only
have use for married women who are
not ell r>ip|K>rt with tlieir spouses. To
secure attention she would have been
obliged at iuast to make the men slip
p >>e that she had tired of Mr. Fitch
t\. Iiuld attention she would have been
*l'ur them. She did neither, but became
dissatisiied. and her dissatisfaction
was inauifest.
Olio morning niter nor uusnauit nan i

hilt she did not choose. She would like
to do so. but was too loyal to her hus
band. besides belli# too prudent.
At the oud of a week the iHistiuau :it
the same hour us before left another
note from the same unknown, lie
blamed himself for burin? written,
feared he had shocked her a ml lieggcd
forgiveness. On the whole, he seemed
to lie iu a specially unpleasant frame
of mind. Nothing can be more pleas
Ins tu a woman than this same tin
pleasant frame of a lover's mind. It Is
also very useful to story writers and
poets. Mrs. Flteh was delighted. She
was so delighted that she pitied the
poor mail who loved her so well that
he had been tempted lo Insult her. She
wrote lilni a note gently chiding liliu
and promising to forgive him If lie
never did so again, lie wrote th ink
I rig her for her clemency and made the
promise provided she would declare to
Idiu that she Iu her heart of hearts
wished htm to do so. This was Im
possible. though Mrs. Fitch declared
Unit she loved her husband and could
put love any other man. .Vppareutly
there was no convenient place where
the correspondence might stop.
Mrs. Fitch showed plainly that there
was something on her litiinl. Her hus
baud said to her one day:
"Sweetheart. I always feared you
who Were so attractive as a single wo
man. would llnd life dull as :t luurrled
one. lii.n't think I want tu pen yon
tip with myself. I wouldn't evt-n ob
oct to a mild flirtation."
Mrs Fitch threw her arms around
his lit- U with the Intention of diowlng
hint her appreciation of his enlarged
views, hut the embrace was somewhat
One uav .Mrs. l ltcii wrote tier uu
known lover that she was going to vi
It n relative iu a neighliorlng ?-ity and
Le must send uo more letters t<> ilir
house while she was away. The truth
Is her lover had been resolute on one
point lie would uot reveal himself,
averring that so long as he was tin
known she might accept his love with
purity. hut that the moiuent lie became
to her a known persou their eoriv
s|?>ndeuce must cease.
In her note Informing him of her de
parture she told him l>y what train
sli>- would travel, scarcely acknowl
edging to herself that she was tempt
ing him to take advantage of the op
portunity to meet her. The temptation
w as too stroug for him. He wrote thai
he would be on the train and should
he ilnd her alolie would Join her. Hut
he admitted that for this one joy their
correspondence uinst cense and he
must fade from her like a quickly dis
solving dream. Mrs. Fitch thought
this a beautiful comparison, but didn't
intend that the dream should dissolve.
On the morning of her departure
Mrs. Fitch was very distrait. She for
got everything she should have remem
bered and reiuemlx'red everything she
should have forgotten. Iler husband
feared she would lose her ticket amV
get out at the wrong station. He In
sisted on going with her, but she
wouldn't have it. So he kissed her
goodby In the ear and waved to her
from the window.
Half an hour after the train started
