"Ye mean, Ma'm," said she, "that Flukey can sleep in a real bed and have doctor's liniments for his bones?" Ann nodded. "Yes. Now then hurry!... Look at that poor little boy!" Flukey was on his knees, leaning against the wall, his feverish fingers clutching his curls. "Horace! Horace!" called Ann.
'You are scalded painfully, and I not at all! She gazed into his kind face as she had never gazed there before, and when Mrs. Loveday came back with oil and other liniments for the wound Anne would let nobody dress it but herself.

"When I arrived I found Daddy confined to his bed, and groaning with pain, while his wife and Fanny and several of the neighbors, were flying about, applying hot fomentations, and a variety of liniments. "I immediately sent for Dr.
Medicine, liniments, change of air. My dear, it's no use. What's the use of paying two guineas to hear a man tell you to do a dozen things which are hopelessly impossible?
