Ralph had raised the little one in his arms, and was looking with wondering admiration at the proud, beautiful face of the little Beatrice, and the fair loveliness of Lillian.

"This one with dark hair has the real Earle face," said Stephen Thorne, proudly; "that is just my lord's look proud and quiet.
If she does forget this purpose, her stories, although they may bring the children week after week in throngs, will leave them where they were before, so far as their reading taste is concerned.
