If I send a man to buy a horse for me, I expect him to tell me his points, not how many hairs there are in his tail!" On going over the minor orders, riders, and corrections of the President, it will be seen that he never succumbed to conforming with the stale and set phrases of the civil-service documents.

Carraud, but with no better success. The Country Doctor proved a source of nothing but disappointments to Balzac, who received an adverse decision from the courts, in the lawsuit bought by Mame, because he had failed to furnish copy at the stipulated dates, and found himself facing a judgment of three thousand francs damages, besides another thousand francs for corrections made at his expense.

She saw what her work would be: to cut a way through the jungle, to make clearings. "If I were to type it all over again, you'd have a clean copy to work on when you were ready." "If you would be so good.
Why, then, were there sudden voids? Why were there inferior bits, which he did not perceive while he was at work, but which afterwards utterly killed the picture like ineffaceable defects? And he felt quite unable to make any corrections; at certain moments a wall rose up, an insuperable obstacle, beyond which he was forbidden to venture.
Let us bring home these considerations, and inquire how we are affected by God's dealings with us, and what temper we maintain? We have comforts and corrections.
