This ended the interview. Sherman

that the Reese family were preparing
to sail for Europe. he made his own
preparatio to do likewise. Isabel
gave him clew to their route, and he
followed in the next steamer. But the
foxy papa had purposely given his
daughter a route to mfslead her lover,
intending to change it as soon as they
reached foreign shores. When Sher-
man supposed they were at Nice, they
they were at St. Petersburg, they were
in Paris. However, he had taken the
precaution to give Isabel certain ad-
dresses where he could be found, with
instructions to mail him duplicate or
n1plicate letters, as the case might re-
quire, and it was not long before one
of these missives Informed him that
the Reese party were IN Florence,
Italy.
He knew that the parents would keep
a sharp watch over their daughter and
not permit her to stay away from them
long enough for any one to communi-
cate with her secretly. Isabel had
warned him not to write her, as she
was not permitted to receive letters
that had not been inspected. ALI he
could do was to take up his abode in
Florence and wait an opportunity.
The first time he caught sight Of the
Reeses was in one of the galleries Of
pictures and statuary with which Flor

to change his direction, dart down q
side corridor and out of the building.
Luckily he was not discovered by the
parents. nor did Isabel see him. Then
he came upon them strolling by the
river Arno, but this time they were
sufficiently distant to enable him to
beat an easy retreat. After these two
meetings he began to fear that he
would surely run against them with
out an opportunity to escape. If he
did, the daughter would be taken away
and watched SO carefully that she
might not be able to give a new ad-
dress.
One morning he concluded to watch
their hotel, observe when they went
out sightseeing and follow them with
the hope of communicating with Isabel.
He saw them get into cab and drive
to the railway station, taking a train

not neglect to give those with
whom you come in contact to un-
derstand that you live in a live
town, populated by enterprising,
go-ahead, progressive people. and
one that is advancing instead of
retroerading. If you can truth
fully speak in commentator of
the ability of your professional
men, the square dealing methods
of your merchants, the superiority
of your schools, ETC., let nothing
prevent you from exercising that
privilege. It will not be necessary
to mention the drawbacks, ifthere
are any. Strangers seeking a To-
cation are always greatly influenced
In favor of any place where the
citizens are enthusiastic of it's
praise. Unless its inhabitants APP
preciate the excellence and virtues
of each other and will collectively
spread abroad their faith in the
prosperity and future greatness Of
their own locality, no city or town
can expect to attain prominence
over it's rivals. When r~ightfully
utilized, talk can be made effective
in many directions aad this is one
