and before the affair was broken, nursed
the man she subsequently married-John
Elliot-through an attack of malarial
fever in Rome. He was an ardent young
art student at the time, and had worked
too hard in dangerous climate. He
passed from the fever of Rome into the
fever of love, but was unable to per-
suade Miss Howe to think of him until
some years after her engagement with
Porter was off. She had resigned love
for literature and seemed contehted with
the exchange. Literature.

LIZARDS THAT LOVE MUSIC.

Scared or by a Peasant.
AS is well known, lizards of all colors
and sizes abound in Italy. They lie bask-
ing on all the stones, they run along all
the walls, they peep out at every chink
and crevice; but as soon as they hear the
faintest noise they disappear with light
ming speed, and it is hard to see them
near and to observe them closely. Walk
ing carelessly and noticing the dear little
animals, darling now here, now there,
remembered the Greek statue of Apollo
Sauroktonos, who is always represented
rs busted with lizard-Apollo, god Of
the sun and of music.
Suppose try" thought, and softly,
quite softly, began to whistle dreamy
old German air, and behold! lizard lies
still as though rooted to the spot, raising
its little head in a listening attitude and
looking at me with his sharp little eyes
Without stirring continued my melody.
The lizard came nearer and nearer. and
at last approached quite close, always
listening and forgetting all his fears. As
soon, however, as the whistler made the
slightest movement it vanished into some
crevice, but to peep forth again a mo-
ment after and to istenonce more, as
though entirely entranced.
A delightful discovery, and one Of
which extended the field of observation
daily. At last as many as eight or nine

awhile cautiously went few steps fur

little creatures followed, slowly, i is

them to flight. But my experience had
