Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Shadow on the Threshold I polish the glass case (very carefully, for fear of the cracked panes giving way), and display to the greatest advantage the few little prints and showy articles which we possess. I make the brightest books conspicuous, and put the faded ones into the background. Then I change the places of the prints and periodicals in the win dow, that the stationer opposite (whose books and pictures are constantly renewed) may imag ine that we sometimes replenish our stock. And while I am busy the old sad thought lies only half hidden under those passing fancies I try so hard to hold.
