...diary ("For," said he, "she will think of me every day in the year!") was to be aesthetically bound, and to have an elegant section of looking-glass inserted in one cover; above this mirror were to be two hearts transfixed by an arrow; below the mirror, the words, "She whom my heart hath chosen," were to convey to the fair Evangeline, while gazing upon the glass, the sentiments which inspired the heart of the adoring De Smythe...
...that in case the Corporation do not feel justified in making this expenditure, the required number of blue-books should be purchased by the College, and a suitable extra charge be made on the termbills.

This is a great mistake, as a moderately careful man can go for the whole summer, and live comfortably for $250, which will cover all expenses. The price for a return ticket, on one of what are considered second-rate lines, is from $110 to $140.
