of Dunlap, said to have Iwn sent from
this county, complained of excessive
heat and asked permission to rest in

forts to capture him with dogs proved
futile.

Justice Precinct No. 8, Justice Curry
presiding.
The first case on the docket was that
of ( 'has. W. Hankin vb. Henry Green,
suit for the value of a horse. The cir-

I have letters from Dean Stanley
that have been read for me by ex
perts, but which, unless I can recol
lect their contents, might just as
well be si ill in their sealed envelopes
I have notes from Walter Thorn
bury, which resemble Chaldee mac
uscript. In these days of typewrit-
ing machines it seems inexcusable
that such enigmas should be present-
ed to the human mind; but in the
first place many persons find the
typewriter more difficult to handle
than the pen; and secondly, in epis
tolary intercourse of the social kind,
some people consider the use of the
typewriter to be disrespectful. Nev
ertheless we might take a hint from
an anecdote told by Bishop Barring
ton. "Out of resj>ect," wrote a cor
respondent, "I write to you with my
own hand; but to facilitate the read
ing, 1 send you a copy made by my
amanuensis. "—James Payn.
Patalliif from Life.
Pose the sitter with especial regard
to the best effect of light and shade,
and study to obtain the happiest
turn of the head and body. Often
an uninteresting full face may have
a pretty profile, or the charm of the
expression lie in large eyes turned
full upon the spectator. It is the
artist's part to see the best features
quickly and intuitively, and to take
the utmost advantage of them.
Avoid, above all, stiffness; never
have shoulders and head both turned
straight in the same direction. Very
much of the ultimate success de
pends on choice and placing of the
model. —Maude Haywood in Ladies'
Home Journal
