Then the wood-cutter handed back the photograph and shifted his gaze. "I've never seen the original of that about these parts," he said a little hoarsely. "I didn't figger you had," Seth replied, rising and proceeding to tighten up the cinches of his saddle preparatory to departing. "The lawyer feller gave me that. Y' see it's an old pictur'. 'Tain't as fancy as they do 'em now.
And as for dress, the average woman piles a lot of truck on her like a klootch at a potlatch, and cinches herself up in a " "Hush!" said Sheila. "Huh!" said Farwell.
