WITH SCISSORS A judge in the courts the otBer day objected to a witness who was prone to use exaggeration and employ figures of speech. The judge remarked that It was absurd to say that "the accused waa beside himself with rage" and that "he flew at the other man." Ho wasn't two people and be hadn't got wings. When you come to think of it it is absurd. We wallop our children for saying that there are hundreds of dogs in the garden, but then they hear us' say that we are "driven to death" with work, or that somebody has "set the ocean on fire." Equally untrue is it when we say that a steak is as "tough as leather," the coffee "as cold as ice," or that the cake is "as heavy as lead." One result of this sort of thing is seen when the child asks his sister's young man If he has any prizes for running, because the child has heard that he's always "running after" Slssie. The fact is that we are ever looking for something out of the ordinary.

When hailstones fell during June, they were in a few cases the size of eggs but everybody told everybody else that all of them were as big as footballs. It's time that we went back to simple description. No day is ever so hot as to be "baking," or we should all be dead. No man drinks "like a fish." Fishes, anyway, don't drink a lot They see so much water that they're probably sick of It 'And no soprano sings "like a nightingale. Buffalo Express.
