She never looks at you in Aunt Jane's I'm-amazed-at-you way.

And she laughs herself a lot, and sings and plays, too--real pretty lively things; not just hymn tunes.

And the house is different.

There are four geraniums in the dining-room window, and the parlor is open every day.

The wax flowers are there, but the hair wreath and the coffin plate are gone.
