The Nan Without 4 Shadow

I was now left equally without gold
and without shadow; but a heavy load
was taken from my breast, and l felt
cheerful. Had not my Minna been
irrevocably lost to me, or even had
been perfectly free from self-reproach
on her account, I felt that happiness
might yet have been mine. At pres
ent l was lost in doubt as to my flu
ture course. 1 examined my pockets,
and found I had a few gold pieces

ings of great satisfaction. 1 had left

to meet me with friendly greetings.
Many other forms seemed to rise up

lovely but fleeting forms. l was con-
scious. also, of being in dream. and
was anxious that nothing should
rouse me from it; and when I did
awake I kept my eyes closed, in order
If possible to continue the illusion.
At last l opened my eyes. The sun
was now visible in the east; must
have slept the whole night. I looked
upon this as a warning not to return
to the inn. What l had left there I
was content to lose, without much re-
gret; and resigning myself to Provi-
dence, / decided on taking a by-rOad
that led through the wooded declivity
of the mountain. l never once cast
a glance behind me; nor did it ever
occur to me to return, as l might

left in affluence. l reflected on the

various inquiries with readiness and
intelligence. At last we reached the
bed of n mountain torrent. which had
laid waste considerable tract of
the forest; 1 inwardly shuddered at
the idea Of the open sunshine. I suf-
fersd the peasant to go before me. In
the middle of the very place which
dreaded so much, he suddenly stopped

count of this inundation; but instant

A pretty costume is of combined
Oxford suiting and leather. The skirt
has the seams strapped with the lat

of the skirt.
The loose fitting coat has straps Of
leather put on in the effect of box
plaits and a belt lacing through the
bands to stimulate the Norfolk effect.
There are capelets and 1evers of the
leather as well.
A queer looking round hat made en-
tirely of leather and trimmed with
heavy taffeta bows and a quill matches
the outfit.

golf cloths are used for less expensive

they are trimmed with the same

"Straining at Gnats and Swallow

But, this is only the beginning. Is

make the Iroquois fire a text, but
what have fire escapes to do with
rum? He traced the downfall, the
drunkard's death, and followed the
sot into the grave. This is all elo-
quent, and no doubt must be con-
soling to members of his congrega-
ton who lost friends in the Iroquois
disaster; or, perhaps, have a father,
sister or brother who takes a drop
too much. No; this is not tearing the
flesh. On second thought, The Press
has no right to object. This news

should be left to his own medita-
tons. 1t may never have occurred

that no one has any business to know
why the ''lilly white plank was left

charge that they have itup their sleeves
to disfrunchise the negro, when they get

statement also acknowledges the fact
that just now they are sailing under

And now Democratic sheets say 1T
was the business of the Democrats sole
~" why certain plank was not put
into the state platform of the Demo
Gratis. Having taken this position on
what was left out, we logically infer
that the same holds true, or at least
they so regard it, IN reference to what
was put in. In other words, it is not
intended that any one except Democrats
shall even consider, or have the right to
consider, the Democratic state platform.
They virtually say, 1--WE nave built a
little bull pen around that freak and no
one is entitled to take peep at it but
ourselves" This being the case they
express their intentions of refusing to
lay it before the people for their con-
sideration and it is to be an exception
to the rule. The nominees are to stand
on it, but as it is solely the business
of the Democrats, the people in general
must keep away from it, and, when
they do, they necessarily also keep away
from the candidates, who are standing
on it, il such they are. Under the cir
