Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1892-12-01

Hopedale was peaceful hamlet, but
beyond it's kind In certainly one pro-
gressive point-it had young ladies'
seminary Of unusual excellence, and
young man of more than usual acumen
was enjoying the beautiful day and TAX
ing in the distant turret5 and peaks OF
the institute of learning in question at
that eventful hour, for him, when our
story opens.
He had the look of an artist, and the
equipment Of an artist surrounded him.
He had chosen the slope of wooded
grove for his camp. stool, and had set
his easel facing the village. The fam
ing leaves Of q broad spreading tree
sheltered him. Air, earth and sky were
in harmony with the artistic impulse,
but .ust now he seemed in a thoughtful
rather than an active mood.
His brush had fallen to his side, and
the canvas showed only a few lazy
patches of color. 1t seemed as il he
had come out to paint Nature and had
been shamed from feeble effort by the
glorious brush of Nature itself. The
sun, which dashed the white villas with
pale gold, made the sumacs great
ensanguined blur Of crimson, and
mingling with the vari- colored tree
tops, produced those exquisite shades
and alterations of color aud beautiful
effects which no pen has ever yet de-
scribed, no brush ever yet delineated.

His words were sigh of longing and
anxiety, and he continued to gaze at the
distant turrets as if she" was fairy,
with power to fly straight through the
air to his side.

Over went stool and easel as the
yong man sprang to his feet, as if from
an electric shock. Red as the red, red
}eAycs strewn about him flushed the
handsome face, and brighter than the
crystal rays of sunshine slowed his
G)'oui-lOokinS eyes down into responsive
ones brighter yet, while he clasped the
bands, both hands, that had shaken the
Dough overhead, sending earthward the
