Show Argument Bothered Him It was during a trial in an Ohio city some time ago that one of the jurors suddenly rose from his seat and pre-cipitately pre-cipitately fled from the courtroom. He was arrested in his night before lie had left the building, and brought back. "What do you mean by running ol that way?" asked the Judge, who knew the man to be a simple, honest farmer. "It's like this, your honor," said the man earnestly. "When Mr. Hibbert finished talking, my mind was all clear, but when Mr. Carter began all was confused again, and I said to myself, my-self, 'I'd better leave at once, and stay away till he's done, for to tell Hie truth, I didn't like the way the argument argu-ment was going, your honor."-Es-change.
