Wandering Sheep. {106} From Wandering Sheep. {124} From Mr. E. Myers's "Pindar." {128} Poor Figgins always called M. Baudelaire "the Master." {208} His photograph, thus arrayed, may be purchased at Mentone. {256} "Lift" is English for "elevator," or "elevator" is American for "lift." {261} This article was originally written for "Mind," but the author changed his. The reference is to Kant's Philosophy. {265} A similar phenomenon is mentioned in Mr. Howell's learned treatise, "An Undiscovered Country." {283} A chapter from Prof. Boscher's "Post-Christian Mythology." Berlin and New York, A.D. 3886. {284} Both these names are undoubtedly Greek neuter substantives. {285a} Lieblein speaks ("Egyptian Religion," 1884, Leipzig,) of "the mythical name Jo." Already had Continental savants dismissed the belief in a historical Jo, a leader of the Demos. {285b} There seems to be some mistake here. {287} "Le pierre sorti du soleil se retrouve au Livre des Souffles." Lefebure, "Osiris," p. 204. Brugsch, "Shai-n. sinsin," i. 9. {304} "Beach-comber" is the local term for the European adventurers and long-shore loafers who infest the Pacific Archipelagoes. There is a well- known tale of an English castaway on one of the isles, who was worshipped as a deity by the ignorant people. At length he made his escape, by swimming, and was taken aboard a British vessel, whose captain accosted him roughly. The mariner turned aside and dashed away a tear: "I've been a god for months, and you call me a (something alliterative) beach-comber!" he exclaimed, and refused to be comforted. ***END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK IN THE WRONG PARADISE*** ******* This file should be named 13984.txt or 13984.zip ******* This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/3/9/8/13984 Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will be renamed.
