autographs; she writes, and has drafted
the plot of a thre♦volSme novel, not
written; she despises this age of:money.
One day she wakes up, and reflects that
woman was not made to hre alone.
Many of her old school -friends are al-
ready wives and mothers; and in the
numerous novels from Mudii s which she
peruses she notices a tendency to depre-
ciate the matrimonial chances of virgins
who have reached her time of life. Her
poetical instinct warns her that there is
110 romance in old mails.
So she rouses for the fray, and puts
.on war -paint. A tine figure and car-
riage, a well-trained intellect, a strictly
conventional manner, a good family con-
.nettion, a few art -treasures as heir-
looms,
eirlooms, a domestic taste underlying her
keen poetical sympathy with wives of the

Swinburne. An ordinary pian will no
