Keeping along this pretty road through the little village of Genets, where you actually touch the ocean, there is much pretty scenery to be enjoyed all the way to the busy town of Granville. It is a watering-place and a port, the two aspects of the town being divided from each other by the great rocky promontory of Lihou.
Monkeys are usually divided into three kinds apes, monkeys, and baboons; but these do not include the American monkeys, which are really more different from all those of the Old World than any of the latter are from each other.

After a time the school district decided to rebuild the school-house. The old site was small, indeed, only sufficient for the building. The citizens divided, but the advocates of the old site prevailed, and a brick building was erected.
"It's like this," said the Other Professor, hastily drawing a long line upon the black board, and marking the letters 'A, 'B, at the two ends, and 'C' in the middle: "let me explain it to you. If AB were to be divided into two parts at C " "It would be drownded," Bruno pronounced confidently. The Other Professor gasped. "What would be drownded?" "Why the bumble-bee, of course!" said Bruno.
One striking proof of his preference was, at all events, displayed in his marriage to an American lady, Miss Thorpe, of Wisconsin, in 1870. One son was the fruit of this second marriage, and Mr. and Mrs. Ole Bull divided their time between Norway and the United States.
