She continued fond of travelling, especially of exploring the nooks and corners of France, felt by her to be less well known than they deserve, and fully as picturesque as the spots tourists go far to visit. Here she sought fresh frames for her novels.

They talked about the hardships they had endured while apart and of some things they had enjoyed which were as bright spots, or oases, in the desert of their separation. Now as I was there, I wished to visit the place where I had been in days of yore, in my childhood. The places had changed some but I could go to every place I remembered.

Don't talk, thinking you are going to find out your neighbor, for you won't do it, but talk to find out yourself. There is more of you and less of you, in spots, very likely than you know. The Member gave a slight but unequivocal start just here. It does seem as if perpetual somnolence was the price of listening to other people's wisdom.

So it is with the passes over mountains and with the narrows of the sea, and so it is with fords and bridges over rivers. So it is with the Thames. The energies both of travel and of war are driven towards and confined in such spots. Fortresses arise and towns which they may defend.

This system of wrapping paper sketches will be found of great value in all work, from mounting a bird to setting up a deer head. To begin skinning, lay the bird upon a newspaper, head to left of you, on the bench. Have cornmeal handy.

"There were gardens bright with sinuous rills Where blossomed many an incense bearing tree, And there were forests ancient as the hills Enfolding sunny spots of greenery." "I didn't know there was any woods in heaven," said Mary, with a long breath. "I thought it was all streets and streets AND streets." "Of course there are woods," said Nan.
