Mr. Zalhambra’s gaze fell full on the girl and her color heightened under his ardent look. The last act exhausted the possibilities of the theatre in light effects and sylvan scenery; and the curtain rose on a gorgeous scene. But oh, horror!

However, that strict disciplinarian had a vast store of startling reprimands that set all eyes gazing on her sincere countenance. “Oh Mosey,” cried Betty at the breakfast table, being first on the scene to arrange her flowers, “we’ll hev a spellin’ match to-day I bet.”.
