Now all this, and much more, can God do to his as a Father by his rod and fatherly rebukes; ah, who know but those that are under them, what terrors, fears, distresses, and amazements God can bring his people into; he can put them into a furnace, a fire, and no tongue can tell what, so unsearchable and fearful are his fatherly chastisements, and yet never give them the spirit of bondage again to fear.
With a wheeled chair to save mother from the fatigue of walking we started down the line and so rapidly did we pass from one stupendous vista to another that we saw in a few hours many of the inside exhibits and all of the finest exteriors not to mention a glimpse of the polyglot amazements of the Midway.
Clute was amazed to receive a card offering him Mrs. Budlong's "loving and affectionate greetings." He was more amazed when he opened the bundle. It had ribbons in it. There were other amazements in town the next morning. In fact, it was the amazingest Christmas Carthage had ever had. As fast as Mr.
They sat close to each other, so close that the picture book could lie open on both pairs of knees and the warmth of each young body penetrated the softness of the other. Sometimes Donal threw an arm around her as she bent over the page. Love and caresses were not amazements to him; he accepted them as parts of the normal joy of life.

I, for one, feel rather as though I had seen a calm milch cow sauntering at first slowly along a path, gradually evolve into a tiger a genie with a hundred heads containing all the marvels of the world a flying dragon with a thousand eyes!
