They comb their wool up to a peak and keep it in position by stiffening it with brown-red clay half of this tower colored, denotes engagement; the whole of it colored denotes marriage. None but heathen Zulus on the police; Christian ones not allowed. May 9. A drive yesterday with friends over the Berea.
He preached also at Berea, and the inspired penman says, "These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily whether these things were so."
A mechanical piano stood against the log wall, and books and magazines, dog-eared with use, littered the table; and Norcross, feeling the force of Nash's half-expressed criticism of his "superior," listened intently to Mrs. McFarlane's apologies for the condition of the farmyard. "Well," said Berea, sharply, "if we're to reach Uncle Joe's for dinner we'd better be scratching the hills."

He hurried away in pleasant excitement, and in twenty minutes was at the door ready to ride. "You'd better take my bay," said Berea. "Old Paint-face there is a little notional." Norcross approached his mount with a caution which indicated that he had at least been instructed in range-horse psychology, and as he gathered his reins together to mount, Berrie remarked: "I hope you're saddle-wise."
