When Erick noticed tears in the mother's eyes, then his grew wet, and when Sally noticed that, she put both hands to her face and began to sob. Then Erick ran to his grandfather and pleadingly cried: "Oh, Grandfather, can we not take Sally along? Don't you think we could?"

When she did not answer he said pleadingly: "Guida, won't you speak to me?" "The Duc de Bercy chooses a strange hour for his visit," she said quietly. "But see," he answered hurriedly; "what I have to say to you " he paused, as though to choose the thing he should say first. "You can say nothing I need hear," she answered, looking him steadily in the eyes.

Her eyes dropped before his glowing ones. "And there is no need to pity me: I am quite happy, quite; happier than I should be if I were playing the piano or paying visits all day.

Dinsmore rose, and motioning to his wife and daughter to follow him went to the library. Elsie read grave displeasure in his countenance before he opened his lips.
