With a smile on her face and

opposite directions, each blaming the
other for his stupidity and. being in a
passion of excitement. unable to bear
the advice of men across the river
who were bawing out to them how to
manage their canoe.
Another man was so ludicrouSly

both hands, while we, of course. were
rapidly swept down river, leaving him
alone and solitary on the bank. The
