HANGING PICTURES.
The Old Rule and Origin Of the Term
"On the Line"

The Old Rule and Origin Of the Term
"On the Line"
People stu speak Of pictures being
hung ION the line" at the Royal Acade-
my. but very few indeed, even among
the present members themselves, know
the origin of the term. The common
belief that ii implies a place on the
walls on the level with a spectators
eve is more or less correct. But when
the exhibitions we're held in Somerset
House and Trafalgar square the term
meant something far more definite. In
those days people not only spoke Of
pictures being hung ION the line" but
''above the line" and below the line I"
THE line" was then a regular and per
manent fixture. IL was a horizontal
line exactly eight feet from the floor,
marked by a projecting ledge that left
the surface Of the wall below It two
inches in advance Of that which was
above IT,
A picture was said 10 be hung "on
the line" when the top Of its frame
was level with this ledge. Hung
thus says G. ID. Leslie. r. A, In The
Inner Lift Of the Royal Academy"
"the picture. unless a very small one
indeed. was exactly at the height 10
be viewed comfortably by a specta-
tor"
The rule in old times was that all
very large pictures. IS well as whole
length and half length portraits. had
TO be placed above the line. the bot
tons o. their frames resting on the
ledge which marked the line. but Nc
lower. The Iine vas thus preserved
level. no pictures breaking through Il
estber from above OF below.

THE FUTURE OF MEXICO

The destiny of Mexico is in the
hands of the Mexicans. Mediation
has done what it can for them. 1t
has compelled the usurper to flee. 1t
has brought the Federalists and Con-
stitutionalists into conference. What
remains must depend upon them.
The party that stands for law and
the constitution dominates. The
party that stands for despotism and
class rule is under stronger power
as definitely as if the city of Mexico
had been taken. The settlement that
remains now would have remained,
had the Constitutionalists entered the
Capital in blood and fire.
Mediation, whether Of the United
States alone through Mr.. Lind's
agency, OF Of the American Powers
through conference of the United
States with Argentina, Brazil and
Chile, has not touched the internal
government of Mexico. 1t has re-
pudiated %usurption and suppressed
anarchy. Now, it asks only a govern
ment of law and order which it can
recognize and deal with. The inter-
national status which Huerta did not
deserve is within reach of the Con-
stitutionalists.
If they can forego slaughter, be
content with the punishment of law
without retaliatory vengeance, and re-
spect the rights of property in as
Stunning the control Of government,
they can come to terms with their
enemies and obtain the recognition
of the United States, the South
American Nations and the European
Powers.
The future Of Mexico will be deter
mined in the conferences now pro-
ceeding between Carranza and his
generals and the Carbajal emissaries.
Domestic affairs they will adjust for
themselves, but human rights, the
standards Of civilization, the interre-
lations of nations, must be respected
if Mexico is to be restored to the
world station it has lost.-Minneapo-
lis Journal.

Crop conditions have taken a tum-
BILE in North Dakota since the last
issue of this paper. No one believed
it was possible for hot weather to
injure the grain crop this season af-
ter so much rain during May and
June and the most favorable kind Of
growing weather up to the middle Of
July. The unexpected, however, has
happened. Sunday and Monday were
trying days, and as a result the yields
r going to be cut down consider
ably in the fall. The blue stem va
riety Of wheat has usually suffered
most and some damage estimates are
placed at Is and 20 per cent. There
is some shrinkage in almost every
field and the late grain will not
amount to anything unless rains
come soon. It will be a week or ten
days before the farmers will know
just how their crops are going to
turn out and some will not get the
correct story until they have threshed.
Since Monday the nights have been
cool and if the weather is favorable
from this time on the crop will prob
ably average fairly good and in plac-
es there will be some big yields.

A New Back for an Old One. How
it Can be Done in Dickinson.

The back aches at times with a
dull, indescribable feeling, making
you weary and restless; piercing
pains shoot across the region of the
kidneys, and again the loins are so
lame that to stoop is agony. No use
to rub or apply a plaster to the back
if the kidneys are weak. You can
not reach the aus Dickinson resi-
dents would do well to profit by the
following example:
Mrs. W. P. Reynolds, Main St.,
Mandan, N. D., says: "Severe pains
across my back, frequent headaches
and dizzy spells and irregular action
Of my kidneys caused me much an
noyance. I came to the conclusion
that my kidneys needed attention and
got a box Of Doan's Kidney Pills.
They gave me prompt relief and after
using them a short time I was cured.
I still think we'll of Doan's Kidney
Pills and recommend them now as

MEDORA
From the Herald:

It is said that Mrs. Lorena Will in
tends to take the examination at Far
go for the Medora postoffice. with a
view of taking charge on the exnira-
ton of j. O. Gray's term.
Messrs. Wells and Currier of Miles
City. were in Medora this week buv-
ing horses for the Miles Citv Horse
sales Company. They bought one
hundred head of horses from i. r.
day.
Del Tymeson and family of Garri-
son visited the II. c. Short ranch last
week, having driven over in their au-
Gomoode. Mr.: and Mrs. Short rode to
Dickinson with them Thursday and to
the J. B. Stoddard ranch by the wav
OF Medora Friday, then back to the
q. T.. Burgess and family went to
their farm at Gainesville, Mont.
Thursday in the automobile. A hail
storm destroyed the crop and wind
overturned a large machine shed Sum
day. The family had intended to
make the trip at a later date, but
this occurrence required Mr.. Bur-
CESS attention at once.
|. A man who had wintered a few
head of cattle some miles north Of
Medora, but who had lost nearly all
OF his original dozen, drove six head
belonging to ranchers, to his home
near Gaylord last week. Walter Raw
went after the missing stock and
found it in the persons possession.
We have not been able to learn the
lame. =.
Lora Washburn was taken to the
hospital at Dickinson Tuesday, where
ne will be taken ARE of for at least
a time. The county has been support
ing him for several years, lately at
the home of L. Fl. Moore, but his
palsied and paralyzed condition has
lately become such that private care
cannot be easily gotten, SO the COM
m%issioners decided to send him to the
hospital.
W. H. Merrifield has bought the
George Cornell share in the firm of
Arbuckle & Cornell, draymen of Sen
tinel Butte, and will move to that
right lively burg sometime in Sep
TENDER to participate in the joys of
rolling barbed wire and wrestling
flour sacks. He sold the crop on the
place that he had rented from Earl
Fimpel and the seventy head of cat
tie to M. w. Marshall. The price of
the mixed cattle was sixty dollars a
round.
Postmaster Gray says that the an
nouncement of the successful bidder
for carrying the mail on the Medora-
Hanly star route is badly balled up.
Bids were submitted for the service
and William .Rozell, who has had the
work for the past four years, thought
contract renewed, instead Of that a
letter was later received from the de-
partment advising that until aceep-
table terms were met the postmaster
at Hanly should hire a carrier from
time to time. The result is still in

A dense smoke issuing from The
abandoned mine-shafts at the east
side Of town last week attracted con
siderable attention. Examination
showed that the fire had fallen
through into the lower shaft and was
burning fiercely from the additional
air given. Additional interest was
excited by the fact that a hundred
pounds Of dynamite had been left m
The shaft for safe keeping. An en-
|ployee at the Nichols NINE went INTO
the inferno this week and brought
forth the stuff that had such destruc-
tive possibilities. Three years ago q
shaft was driven into the butte to
reach the coal vein and fire was en-
countered, and the work had TO be
abandoned. Later another SHAFT was
driven beneath the layer Of clay on
which the coal rests and at one side
of the old shaft with the end In view
of going beneath the fire and pene-
trating beyond it, but the heat Of the
fire above was 50 intense that this
too had to be given up: Last week
the top Of the newer and lower SHAFT
gave way, letting the fire down INTO
It and thereby furnishing additional
air to the burning coal. The white
hot flames could be seen plainly =
hundred feet back in the lower drift
and the roar Of the burning could be
heard. Many people WISHED the
curious place.

Last week Judge Crawford decided
against the sheriffs in the case
against them by the county for GER
tain fees retained by them for the
collection of delinquent personal tax
|es, ordering them to surrender the
amount retained. This was a suit
brought at the suggestion Of the
sheriff himself, to settle an obscure
and doubtful point that has long been
in question. Mr.. Porter has an ac-
count of the amount, kept in antici-
patton of an adverse decision, and is
prepared to reimburse the county at
once.
