Sister ste. Lucie had given her,
stories were told Of women who

But as this last idea slid into
her mind from behind something
else, there came with it as fright

walls of her stone corridor
closing in on her, a doubt
that cast a stale sallow reflection
on. all her thoughts; suppose she

THE FAMOUS

Ruslkin has written more SEN
fences of inordinatg length than
and other classic writer Of mod
ern English prose. Frederick
Harrison some years ago counted
the words in a number Of typical
sentences, finding that in the
earlier books it was no uncom-
mon thing for Ruskin to run be-
yond the page before permitting
himself and his readers the relief
OF a full stop. But in every case
the sense is as clear as day.
Wordsworth's poem on the
Character Of the Happy War
rior" Is a notable example of sus-
tanned connections. Apart from
the opening and closing couplets,
the poem consists of tow very
long compound sentences almost
entirely comprised of adjectival
clauses. The longer of the two
sentences contains fifty-seven de-
casysyllabic lines. This probably
is a record in serse in the Eng
lish language.

Memories" writes Of his father:
There was a man at Newport
who. after being introduced to

meet you, as I am one Of the
few people who appreciate your
"Evangeline"'

that in the very heart of Africa
lived a strange animal. Explorers
had heard savages speak Of it In
whispers. But no white man was
ever fortunate enough to see one.
This animal was so shy and
so sensitive to the scent OF
human being that long before a
man could reach 1t, that animal
was safely hidden deep in the
forests. They simply could not
find one.

that she had forgotten to breathe
for some time. "welI, give me a

to the clerk, adding scornfully, ut
that's the best you have" Cloth
of-goid embroidered with pearls
would not have satisfied her.
AS she came out, she turned her
head sideways to estimate the
height of the sun, having a low
opinion Of the accuracy of clocks.
and was startled to find it so late.
If she were to get across to the
river, to the Holy Ghost Church, to
set a candle burning before Our
Lady for Marise's success, she
would need to hurry, and of late
Jeanne had found hurrying not so
easy a process as it had been. II
Marise was older, so was she.
seventy-six her last birthday. It
was harder for her to stretch her
long legs to the old stride. Some
thing happened to her breathing
all the blood seemed to go to her
head and blackness came before
her eyes, so that once or twice she
had been obliged like any weakling
Partisan to lean against wall or
table till the roaring in her ears
stopped and the dull heavy fullness
In her head subsidized. But Jeanne
despised people who gave way to
little notions like that. and had no
intention Of putting on any such
airs. Certainly not now, when
Marise's welfare was at stake.
OF course she must make her
prayer for her darling's success,
and set a candle burning before
Our Lady, The easy way to do
this was to step up the street to
the Cathedral but Jeanne did mt
care for the Cathedral, where all
the hereto tourists from Biarritz
went to stare. and which was as
big and bare as the waiting-room
of a railway station. How could
Our Lady notice one little candle
or one old woman there! No,
Jeanne was set on lighting her
candle In her own half-ruined, dark
Church Of the Holy Ghost, where
the Basques go on pilgrimages to
pray before the holy Flight into
Egypt" Our Lady Of the Saint
Esprit had already performed many
