JUDGING BY AppEARANCEs-A PAIsoN

male prisoners is very small in comparison
with the men. At one particular wash

spoke to one Of them. this being sign e

faces fairly beamed with smiles; one = tall
and very handsome young girl, continued
to wash away with downcast eyes. IisN
a sort Of de!icacy in staring at her, her
looks we're so conscious and modest. -
fourth, fat, iIl-looking old woman, also
never looked at The visitors. The two
who smiled had remarkably agreeabie -
res; Que, with good features, and very
mild expression; the other, small womsns
and though with bloom on her cheeks,
certain sad, anxious expression about her
eyes and mouth. OF which Of these tour
women were we to hear a fearful history
related? The on!y ono who looked evil
was the fat old woman.
As soon as we were in the court, our
conductor said, "Now what do you say
about those womenT' "Threo out OF the
the FOUR we remsrked, ssare tho only =.
