The judge, in his charge to the ju ry, told them that in case they were not satisfied that the whole man was involved in the crime, they might bring in a verdict of guilty against as much of him as was involved. The jury, after a s'hort period of consideration, found the right arm the right shoulder, and the head of the prisoner guilty of burgulary. Thereupon the judge sentenced the right arm, the right shoulder and the head of the prisoner to eighteen months' imprisonment with hard la bor, remarking w ith a half glance at the discomfited counsel, that as to the rest of his body tl?e prisoner might do with it whatever he pleased.

Can look' her husband siquare in the eye when he tells lier some story about being detained at the office without betraytng in the least that she knows him to be a col lossal liar.
