along gazing around him with a
strange light in his eyes, light in
which hope, fear, aud JOY were
strangly mingled. Entering the
village, he pondered for o moment,
and then made his way to its WELL

Mine host reused himself from a
most delicious nap at tho sound of
the strangers footsteps, and came
forward to greet the stranger.
