Campanini don JOSEF grasped her hand in
the last act with such fervor as to cause
one of the rings ON her finger to slightly
cut the skin. Accustomed to such trifes,
Mile. Valera paid no attention to the cir

arm had swollen from the effects of some
poisonous matter having come in contact
with what appeared only slight abrasion.
The lady carried her arm in sling for
some days.
