"The points are still distinct. I should say the vaccination was thorough."
"But another will be safer. Have you fresh matter?" Daisy asked, and he replied:
"Yes, some just from a young, healthy cow. I never use the adulterated stuff which has been humanized. How do I know what humors may be lurking in the blood? Why, some of the fairest, sweetest babies are full of scrofula."
He was going on further with his discussion, when Daisy, who knew his peculiarities, interrupted him.
"Never mind the lecture now. Vaccinate me quick, and let me go."
It was soon done; the doctor saying, as he put away his vial:
"You were safe without it, I think, and with it you may have no fears whatever."
He looked at her curiously again as if asking what she knew or feared, and observing the look, Daisy said to him:
"Do you attend the lady at the hotel?"
He bowed affirmatively and glanced uneasily at Sarah, who was looking on in surprise.
