Winterhalter's garden, back of the school- buildings, soon grew to look forlorn and disconsolate. The trees drooped, dirty and gray with dust, and all the land began to sigh for rain. But no rain came. This unusual weather soon produced a perceptible effect upon study and tasks. Scholars grew listless and indolent, and les- sons were but poorly learned or recited. Though the windows were wide open, the school-room would be very hot and suffo- cating, even during morning exercises ; for there wa...s no dew at night, and the great earth seemed to have lost all moisture or coolness, and the night-time was as swelter- ing as the day. It was very uncomfortable and oppressive, everybody knew, but as yet no one had thought particularly of danger.
