Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thraldom A delightful garden, she said with evident sincerity, and again the rector glowed. The house was irregular; it had been impossible to enlarge it without making it so, but it was irregular in a pleasing way. Old-fashioned square windows with small panes stood side by side with modern large-paned bay ones, but it did not seem to matter. A lattice-work of brown 'wood covered entirely the white painted walls of the house, giving a sense of uniformity to the whole, and in summer forming a background and support to beautiful climbing roses and clematis and honeysuckle. Primrose-coloured hangings draped every window, harmonising charm ingly with the brown paint of the lattice-work and window frames. The front door stood open, revealing a large square hall glowing with colour, and at the door stood George, and Mrs Ray, the housekeeper, waiting to welcome the master and his bride. Every thing was orderly, refined and pleasing. Lady Georgina looked unmistakably pleased as her husband helped her to alight, and actually bowed twice in response to the parting cheers of the men who had borne her to her home. She looked round approvingly as she entered the house. The hall was very bright and warm-looking. The furniture was oak, a handsome Turkey carpet covered the oor, the walls were painted red, a round table in the centre was piled with books, and bowls of tulips were placed everywhere, showing up brilliantly against the dark oak.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manhattan That bind me to these paves; but stronger yet The spiritual thraldom that I know The madness in the blood and in the brain That comes and grows and flourishes, until It is a very portion of ourselves, And teaches us to lose our youthful dream Of God's wide gardens and His quiet woods; And tells us to forget the ancient truths, The little paths which sundown used to paint With all the gorgeous color of the world. Lost peace! Lost rapturous evenings! Olden dawns! When shall I feel again your healing kiss Upon my tired eyes? Not lost indeed Is your fresh beauty - only vanished now, While I am prisoner here a little while. I heard a quiet voice Call to my aching heart But I did not dare rejoice, Lest swift it should depart, it said, Though you are captive now pulsing mart.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fragments, Vol. 2 Impersonality is not the cold ab straction so many take it for, - and acting on, numb the very faculties most needed for their inner and outer growth and work. No more fatal mistake could be made. They have sadly misread their Light on the Pat/1 and Voice of the Silence. Utterly forgetful of self and all personal advancement, careless of results, we must be filled with anintense desire that good should be accomplished. From love of the home circle the advancing occultist broadens into love of the whole world; from a loathing of sin and evil in his own heart, he learns truly to loath it without, and to give his life to relieving others from its thraldom.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Countess Pharamond: A Sequel to "Sheba" Behind the gilded gates of the Hotel Pharamond, in the Champs Elysees, the world of Paris was being entertained. For some years the hotel had been closed to society. Its owner had been travelling far and wide, visiting old world and new, intent on amusement and distraction. Rumor whispered that even his great wealth had not been proof against the vicissitudes of the gaming-table, or the extravagancies of a certain "lionne" well known in theatrical circles a queen of comedy, and - a queen possessed of an ambition to shine in a very dazzling and eccentric fashion. To escape her thraldom, which threatened to overtax his patience and his resources, the Count Pharamond took himself off abruptly to safer, if less civilized, regions. This had all happened some years ago, and now Count Pharamond had returned to his beloved Boulevards - returned enriched by a new fortune to which he had unexpectedly succeeded - and accompanied - to the no small curiosity of society - by a wife whom he had met and married at the Antipodes. These events had been duly circulated in fashionable journals, and discussed by the Count's former acquaintances previous to the advent of the Countess Pharamond herself.

ABOU BEN ADHEM INGERSOLL Dear Mr. Green: --I have read, with the greatest interest, the article on page 409 of the July number of your Magazine taken from the Chicago Tribune (and which I see is copied in the N. Y. Telegram of 5th inst.) giving an account of Frederick Douglass' introduction of Col. Ingersoll on Emancipation day in Washington twelve years ago, when Mr. Douglass, stepping to the front of the platform and discarding the usual formulas of introduction quoted the followlowing lines: -- "Abou Ben Adhem (may his tribe increase !) Awoke one night from a deep dream of peace, And saw, within the moonlight in his room, Making it rich, and like a lily in bloom, An Angel, writing in a book of gold;-- Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem bold, And to the presence in the room he said, 'What writest thou?' the vision raised its head, And, with a look made of all sweet accord, Answered 'The names of those who love the Lord.' 'And is mine one?' said Abou. 'Nay, not so, ' Replied the angel, Abou spoke more low, But cheerily still; and said, ' I pray thee, then, Write me as one that loves his fellow-men.' "The Angel wrote, and vanished. The next night It came again with a great wakening light, And showed the names whom love of God had bless'd, And lo! Ben Adhem's name led all the rest." It was a truly graceful, most fitting and well earned tribute from the foremost of those who were emancipated from the thraldom of bodily slavery to the grandest of those who have fought against both bodily and mental slavery. Leigh Hunt must nave had some such loving nature as that of Col. Ingersoll in his mind when he penned his Abou Ben Adhem. I must confess, in reading the article, to having experienced considerable of the emotional, even, almost, to the...

It had been calm during the day - but at the rising of the moon, as if the winds had been released from their thraldom, a light breeze rippled the surface of the ocean; the broad sails of the frigate as it reached her swelled steadily out. Studding sails had been set, and now from truck to deck a cloud of canvass had opened their folds, and like a bird who had spread her wings, she coursed smoothly over the sea.

Those who have never before attempted, and failed, to wean themselves from the fatal stimulant, will perhaps think the conditions laid down tiresomely and disagreeably exacting, clashing and interfering, as they do, with all their habits and impulses. There are some, however, who have hitherto been unsuccessful only for want of proper direction, but whose constant hope by day, and dream by night, is to recover their liberty.

The illustrations are chie y from photographs, in the prepara tion of which the Italians sustain their reputation for artistic excellence.
