Id the Middle ague what we would

that time waa considered a drag, and
from coating drags with sugar the

Seventeenth century that sngar became

Convincing Argument.
A counsel for the defense once got
the better of Judge Bramwell. He
requested leave to address the Jury
In Welsh, of which Bramwell waa
Ignorant. It waa a simple ease, and
permission was given. Counsel said
only a few words, and the judge left
the decision to the jury with little
comment from him. He waa, however,
startled at the prompt verdict of ac
quittal. ,
"What was It," he Inquired after
ward, "that the learned counsel said
to the Jury?"
"Oh," waa the reply, "lie Just said,
"This case, gentlemen, lies In a nut
shell. You see yoursetvea exactly how
It stands. The Judge is an English
man, the prosecuting ceunsel la an
Englishman, the complainant la an
Englishman But you are Welsh, I
am Welsh, and the prisoner la Welsh.
