Only a jealous husband could ever propose more than an annual six weeks of rustic seclusion to a wife under sixty. Lord Chesterfield was considered as cruel for taking his Countess to the rocks and ravines of Derbyshire as Sir John Denham for poisoning his poor lady." "Chut! tu vas un peu trop loin, Lewin!" remonstrated Lady Fareham. "But, in truly, your ladyship, when I hear Mrs.
In the examination of cases of the untoward effects of quinin upon the eye, Knapp of New York found the power of sight diminished in various degrees, and rarely amaurosis and immobility of the pupils. According to Lewin, the perceptions of color and light are always diminished, and although the disorder may last for some time the prognosis is favorable.
She has made herself a laughing-stock since then. That is settled, Lewin" with a nod to the milliner "the silver fleurs de luces for the wedding mantua. And now be quick with your samples." All Angela's remonstrances were as vain to-day as they had been on the occasion of her first acquaintance with Mrs. Lewin.

"Both going on well!" she cried; but her voice also was grave, exasperated. "What is it?" he gasped. "It's something you daren't tell me." "Only this" stuttered Herbert.
