what I meant about Mrs. Vaizey's courage. And the reward of it is that, after your first moment of incredulity, the fish-bone isn't in the least bit absurd. Poor _Cassandra_ comes quite near to expiring of it; and _Dane_, having thumped and battered her into safety, sobs out his wild and whirling passion, while _Grizel_ and poor _Teresa_ have just to sit about and listen. It really is rather a striking and original climax; incidentally it is far the best scene in an otherwise not very brilliant tale. But, having attended that picnic, I shall be astonished if you don't, want to go on to the end and see how it all straightens out. * * * * * [Illustration: Bargain Two-seater, with most of the accessories; only done fifty miles; water-cooled-engine; owner giving up driving.] * * * * * "At 9.30 o'clock, as the fog lifted somewhat, the rescuing steamer Lyonnesse had sighted the Gothland, fast on the rocks, with a bad list to starboard, and apparently partly filled with pater." _Daily Chronicle._ "Our Special Correspondent's" father seems to be a big man. * * * * * "While the class watches, the teacher pronounces all the words. Then the whole class pronounces them while the teacher points, skipping around."--_Hawaii Educational Review._ A pretty scene, if the teacher is a man of graceful movements.
