Her figure vac exceedingly well proper
toned. and she dressed with the most
exquisite taste. With all these physical
attractions, she had an unusually bright
mind. She was constantly adding 20 her
store Of knowledge, and what she knew
she knew thoroughly. II she had not
been a prima donna, she would have dis
tinguished herself in some other walk IN
Life.
As 10 her character il was peculiar.
When Rush came 10 know her intimate
n he told her she vas the most singular
coordination OF baby and woman he had
ever met, and so she was. She lived IN
the world, but she was not a woman OF
the world. She could not say one thing
and mean another, and her friends used
TO tell her that was an accomplishment
prima donna, of all persons, should pos
sess. She was credulous, vet suspicious;
she was practical 20 fault, yet senti-
mental; ehe seemed cold in her nature,
yet che unconsciously hungercd for
love. She made friends easily and took
no pains 10 keep them, vet somehow or

men pull her carriage instead OF horses
they would have humored her whim.
/ Everything new that came out in the
way of bric-a-brac, jewelry or books was
sent to her on the instant by some known
or unknown admirer. Artists painted
her in their pictures and poets lauded
her in their lyrics. She had had so much
| of this alteration that she took it almost
as thing of course; vet she was pleased
By every new attention, and never tired
even of the flowers that were showered
upon her. Guarded like hot house
plant herself, the breath G scandal had
never blown towards her. You could
not look at her and believe that she was
otherwise than pure, and the veriest old
roue would have found himself awed by
her innocence. Yet she was no prude.
/ She was fond of the society Of men and
enjoyed good time as much as any one,
but she was possessed by very strong
1 idea of what a woman should and should
not do. Her position made it necessary
for her to be particularly careful, and,
/ although she was % years old, she had
never entertained a man alone in a room
in her life. Foreigners, with their ideas
