It takes tho form of inaliüiy to write fust , enough to take down a message

quickly transmitted. Tins is easily understood when it is remembered that a receiver often has to write continuously to code dictation, so to speak, for hours nt a time, Thn strain involved is enormous and leads fairly commonly to what is practically a form of nervous breakdown. Dundee Advertiser.

They were selected by placing them In the center of a piece of paper, and the ono that proved most adept in making a speedy bee line to the edgo of the paper was matched against the pick of a rival stable Some of the fastest could not bo induced -to travel in a straight line. In racing parlance, they bolted and were bad betting propositions. But when two camo together that showed a disposition to run straight and true tho betting on the result was lively enough to stir up the antigambling enthusiasts. New York Tribune.. Foozle Again.
