was very irreverent to laugh at sacred
things"
But Miss Lidia Larkspur, whose father
did not believe in vaccination, and who
had a mortal horror of the disease against
which the famous Jenner waged so sue
cessful warfare, was much troubled in
her mind.

that l should fall victim to the small

1t was on a sultry August evening, the
sky full of lurid clouds, the air charged
with glittering arrows of electricity, and
the big drops beginning to patter on the
maple leaves, when there sounded a
knock at Miss Lidia's door-a most
mysterious tap, as she afterwards de-
clared.

Virginia creepers, with little plaster

many bluebells and carnations-a young
widow who read all the newest books
and sometimes wrote gushing poems for
the second-rate monthlies.
Mrs. Printemps imagined herself like
the gifted and unfortunate Mary Queen
of Scots, and dressed up to the part,
as far as nineteenth-century prejudices
would allow her-and she was seated by
the easement, trying to find a rhyme to
suit a most accommodating line Of
poetry, when the tall pale stranger ap-
peared under her window, "for all the
