XIX.

After the dampness and fog came
week of almost tropical heat, under
which the fields grew parched and dull
hued and the dust lay deep on the high
ways. The breeze, when it blew, was
from the lalId, but much of the time
there was q calm, even more oppressive
than the heat-la len zephyrs. Against
such conditions tne energies of but one
of us were proof. Mrs. Loring alone de-
fled the heat and glare and dust, going
on with her preparations for the fetc
with undiminished energy, amid tn,
wondering comments of the rest, to
whom all unnecessary exertion had be e
come thing to be abhorred.
Goodness gracious! how she do keep
goin' so beats me" Mrs. Weston confided
to me one afternoon, when she had
sought the comparative GOODNESS the
Office offered.
"She seems TO thrive on high tempera-
tures," said /. "She's a human sal
amander."
well, let that be as it may" said Mrs.
Weston, who was not TO be entrapped
into a definite statement on such a
doubtful point, "she's u marvel, must
say. 'Tain't like, now, us if she had to
work for a livin'. But that's jes' the
way the world seems TO go, Them that
don't need gets; them that wants 10
rest has to keep stirrin'. If twas her
niece was rushin' round, 'twould be all
natural, because she's got her livin' TO
get sooner r later. If l was in her
place I'd be plannin' and savin' like a
good fellow"
"Why should she?" / demanded
"Her aunt must be at least well TO dc,
and she's nearer to her than anybody
else"
"oh, come now, don't you know about
Mis- Loring's money!"
"No. Honestly, so far as l know,
she is quite able to provide for her
niece. What do you mean?"
Mrs. Weston's face shone with the
Joy of telling a story new 10 her hearer.
"Oh, IL come straight to me-" said
she. mis- Loring told Mis- Clark, and
got it right from her. Mis- Loring's
husband left her jes' a interest in his
estate, and when she dies it all goes
back to his folks. She gets the interest
every year, but she can't touch the prin-
cipal. So Miss Gray can't get anything
from her, though, of course, she pays
her bills now"
