"Don't gather them all to-night, Mrs. Molly," said Dr. John teasingly, as he stooped beside me. "Leave a few for—for the others." I waked up in a half-second, and so did all those prying flowers, I felt sure. "Comedy!" echoed Mrs. Dallas, in scorn. "You mean tragedy!" "What does she want to see me about?" asked Jen, coldly..
