Always apprehensive of spies, although the Gott commandeered by the Kaiser seemed to have adjusted blinders to eyes strained west, east, and south, she leapt to the conclusion that she was under surveillance at last, and her heart beat thickly.

"They may have come into the square during the day, when Blinders was not on duty." "No, sir," said Miss Greeb, ready for this objection. "I thought of that myself, and as my duty to the square I have inquired that I have. On two occasions I've asked the day policeman, and he says no one passed." "Then," said Lucian, rather puzzled, "Mr. Berwin cannot live alone in the house."

Finally we die, many of us martyrs to overconsumption of food. Ask any healer of intelligence who has thrown off the blinders put on at college and who has allowed himself to think without fear, and he will tell you that at least nine-tenths of our ills come from improper eating habits. It is not difficult to make up menus of compatible foods.

"I'd like to see the man that would persuade me to put blinders or check-reins or any other instrument of torture on my horses.

When you find this, let him stand for say a day in the blinders, and then take them off, and in forty-nine cases out of fifty he will go at once. It has been said that the mule never scares or runs away. This is not true. He is not so apt to get frightened and run away as the horse is.

That I understood Canada could not be established by the fact that I had spent my boyhood there, but only by the fact that some inner vision permitted me to see it as it really was.

"Never mind the blinders," replied R , with gaiety; "if your messmates will thrash through them, I will." "God bless you! my Lord thank you;" and the sick man took R 's hand, and clasped it firmly as the weakness of his condition granted. Hurrying to the deck, R ascertained the feeling of his crew, for I heard above the loudness of the storm, D call to the men, "What will you do, my sons?

A minister is kind o' like a horse in blinders or a cow as wears a yoke to keep her from jumpin', anyway he feels as he can't launch out even if he wants to an' so he never does, but my idea would be to give 'em a little rope an' let 'em be a little more interestin'. Here's two hours a week as we sit still an' might be learnin' things much more useful than as Job was patient an' Joseph was n't.

For the letters do get through" the pimply countenance of P. Blinders was quite immobile, but the eyes behind the great spectacles twirled and twinkled with infinite meaning "a week or so after date, perhaps, but what is that? Nothing nothing at all." "Nothing," agreed Van Busch. The two men smiled pleasantly in each other's faces for a minute more.

I went up the bank about fifty yards, and then I doubled on my tracks and slipped back to where my canoe was, a good piece below the house. I jumped in, and was off in a hurry. I went up-stream far enough to make the head of the island, and then started across. I took off the sun-bonnet, for I didn't want no blinders on then.
