You ask me for q brief resume of my trip

made, THAT things happen so fast and so
strangely" This reflection will enable you
10 kindly overlook anything stale and uE-
profitable, for the week with It's multipIes
of veal and Voc has flown away, and ano"
tlicr is upon rs with its giant stride and rapid
eroutions If we set the organism Of mind
ut work, Gracic, and use the senses of sight
and hearing, assisting the various phases o.
action intclcc;ion, sensation. emotion,

formulas and keys, ihc nci3ui1 and the dTlis

clothing, and everywhere the face Of nature
was beautifully bright and smiling. The pure
white blossoms of the up-ands and the re-

of the wheels OF coach, and glanced along

world, my mind reverted 10 the decls:auon

procaming the aunhilation OF time. Steam
and electricity are the agents by which we
can approximate this startling principle OF tile
