Shows what Dangers may be encountered in the Pursuit of Art and Science.

Who has not experienced the almost unqualified pleasure of a walk, on a bright beautiful morning, before breakfast? How amply it repays one for the self-denying misery1 of getting up! We say misery advisedly, for it is an undoubted, though short-lived, agony, that of arousing one’s inert2, contented3, and peaceful frame into a state of activity. There is a moment in the daily life of man—of some men, at least—when heroism4 of a very high stamp is displayed; that moment when, the appointed hour of morning having arrived, he thrusts one lethargic6 toe from under the warm bed-clothes into the relatively7 cold atmosphere of his chamber8. If the toe is drawn9 back, the man is nobody. If it is thrust further out, and followed up by the unwilling10 body, the man is a hero! The agony, however, like that of tooth-drawing, is soon over, and the delightful11 commendations of an approving conscience are superadded to the pleasures of an early morning walk.

Such pleasures were enjoyed one morning by Emma Gray and Nita Horetzki and Lewis Stoutley, when, at an early hour, they issued from their hotel, and walked away briskly up the Vale of Chamouni.

“I say, Emma, isn’t it a charming, delicious, and outrageously13 delightful day!” exclaimed Lewis.

Although the young man addressed himself to his cousin, who walked on his left, he glanced at Nita, who walked on his right, and thus, with a sense of justice peculiarly his own, divided his attentions equally between them.
