It's Dutch, anyway, and what you won't be likely to get at home; there's so much to be said for it." And as Mother Fisher observed, they would all enjoy Marken better for the delay, for there would be more time to anticipate the pleasure; and then there was the Henderson box to get ready, for Grandpapa King had not only approved the plan; he had welcomed the idea most heartily.
And I believe Henderson found it out. I shall be surprised if his will doesn't show that he knew it." A servant came to the corner where they were sitting and handed Jack a telegram. "What's this? Mavick?" He tore it open. "No; Edith." He read it with something like a groan, and passed it over to the Major. What he read was this: "Don't be cast down, Jack. The boy and I are well. Come. Edith."
Come, Henderson, speak up; what do you get out of it?" "Oh," said Henderson, glancing at his wife with an amused expression, "I'm doing very well. I'm very well taken care of, but I often wonder what the fellows did when polygamy was the fashion." "Polygamy, indeed!" cried Margaret.

"Very true, for a period of time," said Miss Parrott throwing her black-figured lace veil, worn by her mother before her, away from her face. "Well, now, Pastor, it is not appropriate for you to do this work, with your hands already overburdened. Neither should you bear the expense " "But I don't," cried Parson Henderson, guilty now of interrupting. "Mr.
