With a strong wind blowing across the trail it ran parallel with this, hot from SO yards to 100 yards to leeward, at such a headlong pace that it more than once went head over heels in snowdrifts.

Being inter ested in some article (probably the "weijjhts" for an important handicap), he delayed leaving tbe greenroom nutil tho niciEeiit of bearing bis cne, when, hastily matching up his truncheon, be rushed upon thestae withort bis beard of "sable silvered" ox removiug bis spec tacles. A titter creeted bis nppt arance, lot still tbe fc.leinnify of thedurkeueri stae and the flue acting of Kiug us Hamlet prevented any great outburst cutil the Queen, replying to HatLlet's question. "Do yon see nothing there?" answered, "Nothing bt all. Yet all that is 1 see." wbeu a voice from uluft exclaimed, "Lend her jnur sjiccs, oi l Loy.
