"Don, get up this instant." "Mr. Farnum gives all the orders here, so far as I'm concerned, Mr. Melville," announced the submarine boy. "Oh, let him up," said Farnum, dryly. "We know just where to find Don Melville any time that we need him." Jack got up willingly enough, then. But Don, as soon as he had recovered some of his crumpled dignity, held out one hand imperiously.

He spoke as if assigning sufficient reason and wiped his brow. A twinkle came into the keen eyes. "And one of them you have lost to-day," he said dryly.

"Women like that don't know how to love as lovers, because they care for the virtues in men rather than for the men themselves.

Major Edward folded the Gazette with his one hand, laid it on the library table, and leaned back in his leather chair. "It is not my opinion that Unity cares for Mr. She cares for what many men and an occasional woman have cared for liberty." "I would give her liberty." "She may possibly prefer it," said the Major dryly, "first hand." The young man laughed ruefully.

With a rush of her old, jealous, possessive mother-love, she longed to share this with him and to have him know that she shared it; to put her arms around him and make him let her in. But she knew better now. She yearned over him silently, and did not touch him. "Well, good-bye, Paul," said Mr. Welles, shaking hands with him. "Well, good-bye," said Paul dryly, setting his jaw hard.

They turned into an arbor; and Octavia sat down, and leaned forward on the rustic table. Then she turned her face up to look at the vines covering the roof.
