"Come on in, Ju; drop your plunder into my strong arm and let us introduce you to the Academy.","Do you wish to order, sir?"，"Oh, no; only a country dance," says Mona, blushing.，Glancing round fearfully for a moment, as though desirous of making sure that no strange eyes are watching her movements, she lets the loose cloak fall to the ground, and, taking with careful haste the covering from her head, slips like Cinderella from her ordinary garments into all the glories of a fete gown.
