At first she refused, but after a while she said: "I'll see what I can do, if you are really not happy where you are." From 11 to 12 was the mathematic lesson, and as soon as Frau Doktor Steiner had taken her place she said: "This arrangement of your seats was only provisional. You had better sit more according to height."

It was so different with Frau Doktor M.!! I have just been looking at her photo so long that my eyes are positively burning; but I had to write up about to-day: even when one had been stupid once or twice, she never cast it up against one, never, never, never the sweet angel! July 10th. We are going to F. to-morrow; I am so glad.

Trina burst in upon her mother while the latter was setting a mousetrap in the kitchen. "Oh, mamma!" "Eh? Trina? Ach, what has happun?" Trina told her in a breath. "Soh soon?" was Mrs. Sieppe's first comment. "Eh, well, what you cry for, then?" "I don't know," wailed Trina, plucking at the end of her handkerchief. "You loaf der younge doktor?" "I don't know." "Well, what for you kiss him?"

And Gilly, who is not so frightfully fond of her as Hella and I are, said: "Frau Doktor, please tell us whom you are going to marry." "There's no secret about it, I am going to marry a professor in Heidelberg." That is why she has to leave the High School. It's simply ruined my holidays. Hella has such lovely ideas.

And with her own clothing she packed Stewart's, the dress-suit he had worn once to the Embassy, a hat that folded, strange American shoes, and books always books. The Herr Doktor would study at Semmering. When all was in readiness and Stewart was taking a final survey, Marie ran downstairs and summoned a cab. It did not occur to her to ask him to do it.

Some of the girls in our class were furious in the German lesson to-day. One or two of the girls did not know the proper places for commas, and Prof. Fritsch hinted that we had learned nothing at all in previous years. We understood perfectly well that he was aiming at Frau Doktor M., whose German lessons were 10 times or rather 100 times better than Professor F.'s.

The colleagues were content to warn Doktor Bryller of the inappropriateness of his behavior. One day, about a half year before the final incarceration of Berthold Bryller for life, in an insane asylum subsidized by the state, a yelling arose in the schoolyard of the Horror High School.

"First Schouler, now der doktor, eh? What die tevil, I say!" Weeks passed, February went, March came in very rainy, putting a stop to all their picnics and Sunday excursions. One Wednesday afternoon in the second week in March McTeague came over to call on Trina, bringing his concertina with him, as was his custom nowadays.

"Why do not the Americans stay in their own country, where the water, I have learned, comes hot from the earth." Olga, bending forward, opened the door a crack wider. "Sh! They do not come for rooms. They inquire for the Herr Doktor Byrne and the others!" "No!" "Of a certainty." "Then let me to the door!" "A moment. She tells them everything and more. She says how she is wicked, Katrina!

It's simply absurd, only it's too miserable to call it absurd. I'm in a perfect fury. Still, I don't say anything. February 12th. I have not written for a whole month, I've been working so hard. To-day we got our reports. Although I've been working so frightfully hard, again I only got a 2 in Diligence. Frau Doktor M. made a splendid speech and said: As you sow, so you shall reap.
