I made a report to Miss Blagden at breakfast.
"If you had seen how much pleasure your gift gave, you would feel amply repaid," I said to her.
"Doctor," she said, earnestly, "I thank you for mentioning this case to me. We are so apt to live for ourselves."
"I also mentioned the case to Mrs. Wyman," I added.
"Well?" she asked, curiously.
"She said she was very poor, and wanted to buy a ticket to Patti's concert."
Miss Blagden smiled.
"I am not surprised to hear it," she said. "Did you ever hear Patti, Dr. Fenwick?"
"No, Miss Blagden. I am new to the city, and I am cut off from expensive amusements by my limited means."
