Excerpt from Whither Bound? But though God has thus richly lavished his creative power on what is fitted to min ister to our innocent enjoyment, he has by no means intended that the gifts he has bestowed an man shall fill up his heart and satisfy his nature Not even the richest blessings that come from his boun teous hand - the blessings of human affec tion and love, which so sweeten and brighten our earthly lot - are intended to fill the cup of the soul's happiness and limit its aspirations. Could this be so, than would be an infinitely less noble be ing than his Maker intended him to be. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Whither Her voice trailed off into a soothing, clucking murmur as she led her temperamental cook down the hall. She left in the room a suggestion of scented soap and vigorous perfume, which Zoe found oddly pleasant. Zoe sat quite still on the bed after Mrs. Horne had left. She was a slender, brown, elfin thing, with slanting brown eyes and sooty lashes. Her hair, black and coarse as an Indian's, was cut short and clung in straggly wisps to her head. Zoe had bobbed it herself only the day before she came to New York. She had been a little disappointed in the result. When it had been long and done up in a more or less tidy knot at the nape of her neck, she had looked like an earnest young student or an assistant librarian. Bobbing it, she had thought to appear unaca demic - even modish, whereas she had looked merely immature. Still, there was an inner feel ing of tolerant sophistication which short hair gave one, and Zoe was glad, on the whole, that she had bobbed hers. It was the suitable gesture for a girl who was breaking off with her family and all the stupidities which Albon represented, for a career in New York.

Victor hurled back Apologize to him? To this greenhorn Dutchman? You think you can leave my pony behind? The speech of the colonel created the wildest enthus1asm. I trust that your Honor may excuse my unceremonious intrusion here Whither bound, gentlemen both? Faithful fiddlesticks! Leslie spoke up Do you know, Mr. May, that you are hardly a stranger to me? Prof. Rauhenfels favored the company with a loquacious dissertation on the art of carving Leslie closely watching her, she placed the paper on the rack, and began to sing There! He said, holding out the paper to his visitor, What do you say to that? He gazed into her face with unfeigned tenderness But what are we going to do with these bouquets? The venerable senator bowed with courtly grace Well, my young friend, said the colonel to Victor you have not answered my question Nellie saw what for a moment filled her with superstitious fear And before the word fire was uttered she stood in front of the muskets leveled at her brother Cressie! Is that the young lady's name? Victor had addressed the last few remarks singly to C01.

Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.

Excerpt from Under the Tricolour I Never knew her real name, nor whether she possessed a surname like the rest of the world, nor even the name her mother bore before her, for her father may as well be left out of the question. The profession she followed was one condemned by Society. To induce her to leave her native land, the fellow who enticed her to Africa had said that her destination was only a little beyond Marseilles; that there was just a calm strip of sea to cross, and that in a few hours she would find herself in a country exactly like France, but where the men were more generous. For days she had been standing on the second-class deck, gazing over the never-ending sea, in search of the houses, the cafes and the boulevards of Port-Ferry, whither she was bound in the company of Pasiphae, a languorous blonde, and Carmen, a Wallachian girl.
