entered upon it with aglow of en-
Ethuslam. She was an undagging trsv-
Teler and sight-seer, and never failed

q the impressions of al intelligen
and thoughtful girl as you will
! plainly perceive by reading this
book. Miss Green accom- panied
d my family everywhere, and while /

of old eyes she kept pair of young
eyes very wide open. Girls, read
this handsome volume, and see if
she did not. Z. A. YoUKG.
