They got on to Baden,--with very little delay at Strasbourg, and found half an hotel prepared for their reception. Here the carriage was brought into use for the first time, and the mistress of the carriage talked of sending home for Dandy and Flirt.

"I only meant to ask for them if they could come in a balloon," said Lady Glencora.
