"Jim," said the younger, "I don't believe all the conscripts we've caught these three days are worth the powder they've cost!"

"Um-hm!" I thought; "Charlotte Oliver, eh?" I responded tartly that I had that very morning met four ladies the poetry of whose actual, visible loveliness had abundantly illustrated to me the needlessness and impertinence of fiction!
