I am sure we shall be very merry; you were in the wrong this morning." "Well, perhaps I was." "There is no perhaps at all, for it is a fact you were so."

I am very sorry for them, for the Doctor's sake. Thence to the 'Change, and so home to dinner. When," says he, "I in myself am forced to spend many times as much." 26th. The Queene is drawn in one like a shepherdess, in the other like St. Katharin, most like and most admirably. I was mightily pleased with this sight indeed. Mr.

As eight of us nurses chanced to be off duty at once, we had an excellent opportunity of trying the virtues of these gentlemen; and I am bound to say they stood the test admirably, as far as my personal observation went. Dr. O.'s stethoscope was unremitting in its attentions; Dr. S. brought his buttons into my room twice a day, with the regularity of a medical clock; while Dr.

"All I meant was that you were admirably quick in seizing an opportunity of beginning your propaganda." "I don't think you meant only that," remarked Dyce, coolly, looking her in the eyes.

"You will wait until the reception is over, father?" said Kate, laughing.

Ferdinand, standing upon the doorstep, whistled to the night. Strange to say, in about two minutes there appeared round the corner the very same cabman who had conveyed the Prophet and Lady Enid to the astronomer's on the previous day, driving the very same horse. "This horse will do admirably," said the Prophet to Mr. Ferdinand. "He isn't lame, sir."
