There was no desire for another meal, the weariness consequent upon the exertions and anxieties of the past still inviting rest; and after all had sat upon the sands for a while gazing at the phosphorescent sea, and the great stars which glowed out of the purple sky, a fresh watch was set, Mr Gregory being roused now from his heavy sleep.

"Is there any law or enactment that can compel me to do so?" said the other, biting his lip with scorn. "If there is not, they are here that shall compel you," returned George. "So, friend, I rede you to be on your guard." As he said this, a flush of anger glowed in his handsome face and flashed from his sparkling blue eye; but it was a stranger to both, and momently took its departure.

"It's a shame to allow that class of young fellows in a high school," declared Miss Deane. "If a higher education is necessary for such people, they ought to be sent to a special school of their own." "If Gridley H.S. goes on being cheapened I shall go to some good private prep. school somewhere," hinted Fred. "That would be a splendid idea," glowed Clara.

Her bright face glowed; and Fred liked to look at her when she was excited; the coloring beat Titian's, he thought. "You don't know how painful to me it is to hold out empty hands to so many sufferers" But now Minnie's face looked so sorrowful that there was nothing specially beautiful in the coloring, and Fred said, impatiently, "You bore me, Minnie. I am waiting to take my afternoon nap."

Here they got into a little boat in which the poor old boatman was sleeping, and when he woke up and saw the lovely Princess, with all her diamonds and her spiders' web scarf, he did not know what to think, and obeyed her instantly when she commanded him to set out. They could see neither moon nor stars, but in the Queen's neck-handkerchief there was a carbuncle which glowed like fifty torches.

Now don't you recollect I call upon Mrs.

In the morning he went to his lodge, and the tribe made the preparations for the funeral, and opened a grave in the earth. It was sunset on the bluffs and valleys of the Columbia. Through the tall, dark pines and firs the red west glowed like the lights in an oriel or mullioned window. The air was voiceless.

He was weary, but he had an immense feeling of satisfaction and he sat a while, looking at the fire, which soon sank out of sight behind the horizon, although its pathway, the broad swath that it had cut, still glowed with coals and sparks. He wondered just where his comrades were.

He spread on the ground, too, a gorgeous carpet of crimson leaves, which covered the hillside with splendour so that it glowed in the distance like fire. Here and there the naked branches of the trees began to show sharply against the sky soon it would be winter.

Deliberately as it had left, the cigar returned to the speaker's lips, was puffed hard until it glowed furiously; and was again critically examined. "Supposing such a fat old fellow as myself should tell you this. As a doc and a specialist, would you think there was something worth while the matter with him?"
