A rustic at the door Interrupted his
meditations, and he clutched his hat and
started TO his feet. As he was advancing to
shake hands he received to his establishment
a frigid little bow from the young lady,
who, without asking him to be seated,
dropped into the nearest chair, and to his
aston shment began with:

birds. They are very small, the majority
