Effects of Type writer.

The invention of the typewriter has given a tremendous impetus to the die tating habit, especially among business men, says the Atlantic Monthly. The more ephemeral literary productions of the day are dictated sometimes to a stenographer for transcription, and of ten directly to the machine. In either case the literary effects of the dicta- tion habit are too manifest to need elaboration. The standards of spoken language, which in the days of the past stood out in marked contrast with the terseness and precision of written con- position, giving rise to the saying that no good speech ever read well, have crossed over to the printed page.
 This means not only greater diffuse- ness, inevitable with any lessening of the tax on words which the labor of forward the point of view of one who speaks There is the disposition on the part of the talker to explain as if watching the facial expression of his hearers to see how far they were fol- lowing.
 This attitude is not lost when his au- dience becomes merely a clicking type writer. It is no uncommon thing in the typewriting booths at the capitol in Washington to see Congressman, in dectating letters, use the most vigor- ous gestures, as if the oratorcal meth ods of persuasion could be transmitted to the printed page.

slider and Ponder-Does It Pay7 =
Which Pays Rest?-What Pays You?

Does 1t pay you or is it to yaur inter
est to buy your fuel from u dealer that
has his own yards and teams, carries
full line of coal and wood all the
season round and can supply your
needs when the snow blows and you
can't get any elsewhere? One who
load going out Of his yards, looks per-

and is at the yards from 6 a. m. to z
at night, who looks after your inter-
ests at all times, guaranteeing satisfac-
tory delivery by his men and footing

your place Of business, annoying your
wife and family to get an order, and
when he has it can not fill it at all?
Who will make you great promises and

WILL RECOMMEND
R[HEAR|NG CASE
Former City Solicitor Van Law
Wants Lower Court Upheld
In Shaw Case
AS TO LAW ON cLERksHIPs
Opponents Of the Measure Think They
Have Found LoophoIe, Claiming
That Clerks Are Elected and Not
Appointed = Van Law Does Not
Take Much Stock in This, However.

Former City Solicitor G. H. Van Law,
who represented the city before the
supreme court in the appeal of Capt.
c. III. Shaw from the ruling of Judge
Caswell as to the unconstitutionality
Of the soldiers preference law, will
recommend to the judiciary committee
of the city council that the city make
application for rehearing before the
supreme court. Mr.. Van Law still
maintains that the law is unconstitu-
tional, and hopes to have the supreme
court. on a further showing, uphold the
lower court.
In the discussion Of the soldiers pre-
ference law that has followed the
decision Of the supreme court uphold
ing the constitutionality OF the meas
ure, the opponents have suggested
what they claim is a new flaw. They
declare that the law will only apply
to the strictly appointive positions,
and not to city clerkships, on which
the test case was made.
In substantiating their claim, they
put forth the argument that city clerks
are really elected by city councils, and
tant each alderman votes upon the
candidates. They claim sthat no law
can compel man to vote for certain
candidate in this connection any more
than it can specify that voter shall
cast the ballot Of certain political
party.

constitutionality Of the law, and this
is what Mr.. Van Law is interested In
