THE BLACK AND GULD. 41 the neXt page, a Vision of loveliness burst upon my eyes, and I beheld Essie Wilkinson, the belle of the ball room. This page was blank, but as I looked, a field scene gradually came before my views. Then suddenly -a great shadow fell upon the picture, and lowoking up, I saw an aeroplane soaring above the field. As it came down lower, I discovered a bright red -spot hanging over the axirship. I was greatly -alarmed, tihinking perhaps it was on fire. But just then I heard -a fami- liar voice from the clouds exclaim, U 'Fessor, h-ow d-oes this thing work, anyhow? I immediately spotted the red ball as nothing else in the world but the head of my old school- mate, Arthur Hauser. An explanation of this was given below. My old teacher, Mr. L. Lea White, had recently won his fame by inventing the only aeroplane in the world run by an electrical current. His faithful followers, Arthur Hauser, was now junior partner of the airship, and his highest ambition was to be just like his H 'Fessorf' But what of myself? With trembling hand, I turned to the last page, and behold--only a blank! VVith a crash the book fell to the floor. Tip-tap, sounded the gentle rain, write, write, it seemed to say, and with the visions fresh in my mind, I wrote as record- ed in the book of my dreams.
