There happened to be a young lady there who insisted upon helping him to the water with her own lily hands the boy might dip it up, but she must hand it to him and she had such a way with her that he drank fifty-one glasses. When he came back to the hotel, and the good WARREN asked him what was the matter, he merely remarked: "I'm a quiz, LELAND. If you choose, you may call me a Guy, sir." Mr.

Practically this has affected only one-half of the women in the first year and a very much smaller proportion in the second year. When Leland Stanford Junior University was opened in 1891, 25.4% of the students were women.

You are sick, mother!" she added in tones of grief and anxiety, as she drew her into the hall, where by this time the rest of the family Grandma Elsie, and Mr. and Mrs. Leland and their children were gathered. "Sister Laura! is it possible! Welcome to Fairview," was Mrs. Leland's greeting, accompanied by a warm embrace. "Laura! we did not even know you were in America!" Mr.

These biographies sent me to another old book, Leland on Revelation, which told me much I was curious to know about the mythologies and systems of philosophy of the ancients the innumerable false cults which had flourished in a darkened world before the dawn of the true religion.

"Well, I'll think about it," replied the freshman as he departed for his own room in Leland Hall. Saturday dawned bright and clear and the interest and excitement in the college over the parade rose to its highest point.

He told how the three men were trying to do this very thing, how they had planned on getting the water themselves, how Martin Leland had tied up thousands in options and purchases, how Ettinger had been one too many for them and had beat them to Shandon. He chuckled over everything, but most of all over the fact that Martin Leland had tried to buy him out.

After some discussion, it was decided that all should go North to Cape May for a time: afterward they would break up into smaller parties, and scatter to different points of interest, as they might fancy. Lester and Elsie Leland would spend a portion of the season at Cliff Cottage, Evelyn's old home, taking her and Lulu with them.

"I was so absorbed in my own news that I forget yours. Here is your letter. It is only from Monsieur Marigny, to blow both of us up, I suppose, for leaving him desolate last night. But what do you think of my budget? My father is in London; Mrs. Leland, a friend of ours, joins us at Chester to-morrow; and Fitzroy deserts us at the same time." Mrs.

Lester shared the joyous welcome given to Elsie; the servant woman having relieved him of his bundle, of which, in their joyous excitement, no one had taken particular notice. Only waiting, a trifle impatiently, till the greetings and introductions were over, Elsie Leland took it from her, and with a proud, happy, yet tearful smile laid it a lovely sleeping babe in her mother's arms.

She makes excuses for the absent Barndale, but fancies all manner of things in her feminine fashion, preferring to believe in fevers and boat accidents and other horrors rather than think that a valet has been lazy or a postman inaccurate. Papa Leland, who is here to take care of his womankind, has ideas of his own on some matters.
