The child opened his blue eyes, as serious as those of an old man's, and peeped out from the depth of lace, feebly squeezing the finger that the poet extended to him. "What do you call him?" asked Amedee, troubled to find anything to say. "Maurice, after his father," quickly responded Maria, who also put a mint of love into these words. Amedee could endure no more.

I 'low a horse doctor fixed hit first time," the physician declared. "He'll need some care now, but he's comin' along." "Oh, we'll look afteh him, Doc! Friend of ourn." "I'll come in to-morrow. It's written down what to do, and about that medicine. You can read?" "Howdy," Prebol muttered, feebly. "He's a comin' back, Doc!" the young man cried, starting up with interest.
