little, so desolate, in this great city, it
seemed to Dora that she was already
dead. She turned down on the Surrey
side of the water, when suddenly an odor
of fresh flowers, of wet moss, and damp
earth, came to her. She stood still. On
the edge of the pavement lay bundle Of
shrubs, their roots tied up in moss; and
number Of flowers in pots, in readiness for
the early market. Some women sat by,
enveloped in shawls and half asleep Ro-
SEES of all colors, pinks, and mignonette,
filled the air with their delicate perfume.
Poor little Dora! The scanty joys Of her
youth, the memory of her brief happiness
with her lover all rushed over her. She
walked softly by these flowers. She re-
membered the day in the country with
! Frank; that breath Of Nature, that she
| enjoyed for the first time that day, came
again to her as she was about TO die.

to say, as they swayed gently towards
her.
"Ah, yes, / remember~ she answered,
with a vague smile upon her girlish lips.
She remembered only too well.
