You are to be brave, you know.” “Uh huh.” “I must be very careful, then, not to change it,” responded Nell, as she took the seat assigned to her. Mrs. Wopp obligingly gave as an encore, “There were ninety and nine,” apropos of nothing whatever. Then turning to a portrait on the wall, she enlarged on the musical ability of a great-uncle from whom she reckoned she had received her gift of song..
