Sororian . An idea strikes him. He Avalks to the door, rings the bell and asks to renta room. The lady of the house converses with him for a few minutes and asks himto come in. She goes towards the door. Is she going to invite him in there? She is! He goes to the door and then in. She is still there. Stilllovely! Still wonderful! Then the lady of the house snaps on the light. Oh! Why are the Fates so cruel?!! He swoons! The lady of the houseis a seamstress and she!—a wax fitting figure. —M. Henry,
