=Select a nice font with xfontsel and place it in your ~/.Xdefaults or
=~/.Xressources. For example I have:
=
=,----[ ~/.Xdefaults ]

=[...]

=| Emacs.Font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-
=iso10646-1
=
=[...]

I tried this, replacing "-misc-" with "-courier-" and "-14-" with
"-10-" to get <Courier 10> and it didn't work.  When I bring up an
Emacs editor it still defaults to the larger font.  Do you have any
idea what I'm doing wrong?
