The Intendant then went out and said to the party, "It appears from what I can extract from this lad Armitage, that there are boxes which he removed to his cottage; we will go there to see what they may contain. It is now noon. Have you any refreshment to offer us in your cottage, young man, when we arrive?"

The essays, of course, contain much more than this; the spirit of curious and restless enquiry which animated Bacon finds expression in those on "Health," or "Gardens" and "Plantations" and others of the kind; and a deeper vein of earnestness runs through some of them those for instance on "Friendship," or "Truth" and on "Death."

"Tell me, Madam," said I, "what was in those cases?" "Have I not told you?" said she, and I knew that she whitened under her mask. "There is more than woman's finery in those cases, which weigh like lead," said I. "What do they contain?" Mistress Mary had, after all, little of the feminine power of subterfuge in her. If she tried it, it was, as in this case, too transparent.

He has seen his sister. He will make that do " "Why don't you go to him?" Skag asked. She turned her head softly. "You Americans are amazing." "Why?" he laughed. "An Englishman or any of my brothers in your place, wouldn't think India could contain Ian Deal and himself." "It wouldn't do any good to fight that sort of feeling," Skag said.

Not only has the flutter given satisfaction to a 'Times of India' correspondent, but the occasion has led to the discovery by him of another defect in the constitution of the Senate in that it does not contain a single Muslim member.

But of course I could surely find it for you if you want to go there." At this fresh piece of news I could contain myself no longer. I was bursting to tell some one.

At the door I tripped over Dab-Dab, who was just coming in with her wings full of plates, and fell headlong on my nose, "Has the boy gone crazy?" cried the duck.

If his soul have not been to school before coming to his body, it is late in life for him to qualify himself for a teacher of mankind.
