they exchanged cards and shook hands
cordially when they separated on the

Governor Russell arose to address
the meeting and commenced by max

some time or other have paused at the
fearsome legend, "Trespassers Will Be

Among the minor arts OF life Of
which we have lately given some In
stances Is one which is sadly neglected,
1t relates to the treatment OF shirt
cuffs that show the first protest
against the laundry's handling. The
laundress Is cruel, but the man who
pares his shirt cuffs with scissors
heaps folly upon brutality. With the
first touch of steel the cuff is ruined.
