Wouldn't it be the limit if some one developed measles now, and they quarantined us!" "You deserve quarantining, if ever anyone did," said Norah, indignantly. "Why do you have such horrible ideas?"

"Daly," said the Earl of Morganic to his first lieutenant, an experienced old Irishman of fifty, who still sung a good song and told a good story, and what was a little extraordinary for either of these accomplishments, knew how to take good care of a ship; "Daly, I suppose we must humour the old gentleman, or he'll be quarantining me, and that I shouldn't particularly like on the eve of a general action; so we'll ease off forward, and set up the strings aft, again.
