　　The girl died two hours later. The elder brother took a bag of gold from his pocket and offered it to me.

　　“Please excuse me.” I said. “At this moment, no.”

　　The two brothers looked at each other. I bowed to them and left without another word.

　　Early the next morning the bag of gold was left at my house. I had decided to write to the Minister telling him about this matter. Just as I had finished my letter I was told that a young lady wished to see me. In some way she had discovered the main facts of the story. Her husband was the younger brother. She did not know that the girl was dead, but hoped to help in some way. I told her all I knew. When I went with her to the door I saw in her carriage a boy aged about three.

　　“For my child's sake (缘故), Doctor,” she said,“I want to do all I can for this cruelly wronged family. If I do not, this will become a curse (灾祸) to him. I have a feeling that he may be forced to pay for these wrong someday, if nothing is done. I have some jewels; I shall order him on my deathbed give them to this family which his father has wronged.”

　　She had referred to her husband's name, thinking that I knew it, but I made no change in the letter and posted it myself that day.

A “blogger” is a person who writes on an Internet computer Web site called a “blog”. The word “blog” is a short way of saying web log, or personal Web site. Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they like.

There are millions of blogs on the Internet today. They provide news, information and ideas to many people who read them. They contain links to other Web sites. And they provide a place for people to write their ideas and react to the ideas of others.

A research company called Peruse has studied more than 3,000 Web logs. It says that blogs are most popular with teenage girls. They use them to let their friends know what is happening in their lives. The study also says that more than 100,000 bloggers stopped taking part in the activity after a year.

However, some people develop serious blogs to present political and other ideas. For example, the Republican and Democratic parties in the southern state of Kentucky recently started their own blogs. And American companies are beginning to use blogs to advertise their products.

At the same time, some long-standing blogs have ended. Last week, blogging leader Dave Winner closed his free blog service, weblogs.com. He says the site became too costly to continue. He started the blog four years ago, and thousands of people had written on it.

One blog that is still going strong is called Rebecca’s Pocket. It involves much useful information for readers. Rebecca Blood created the Web site in 1999. She wrote about the history of blogs on the site. That article led to a book called “The Weblog Handbook”. It has been translated into four languages so far.

Ms Blood says Rebecca’s Pocket gets about 30,000 visitors a month. She writes about anything and everything----politics, culture and movies. She recently provided medical advice. And she wrote about how to prevent people from stealing money from online bank accounts.
