Up to this point in the dinner not the slightest reference had been made to the railroad or its interests except by the impetuous Yancey, who asked Fitz what the bonds would probably be worth, and who was promptly silenced by the colonel with the suggestive remark that none were for sale, especially at this time.

The girl wavered. "I suppose, he'll guess I've come here," she said, thoughtfully. "Sure to," said the other promptly. "It's a long way to Poplar," she said, reflectively. "You're Mr. Fraser, the mate, I suppose? Captain Flower has spoken to me about you." "That's my name," said the other. "My name's Tyrell," said the girl, smiling. "I daresay you've heard Captain Flower mention it?"

All carried banners with the same words of the President. There was no hesitation this time. They were promptly arrested for "obstructing the traffic." They, too, were dismissed and their cases never tried. It seemed clear that the Administration hoped to suppress picketing merely by arrests.

"But suppose I have found her now, when I know the value of things." "Suppose you should find her now within a reasonable time. What would you do?" "Marry her," he exclaimed promptly. "Marry her and take her to Grenoble, and live the life my father lived before me." She did not reply, but rose, and he followed her to the shaded corner of the porch where they usually sat.

"No," said Ruth, promptly; and in her own mind she registered a vow that in her future home she would never give the pain that being overlooked by the larger house can cause to the smaller house. "And I will stay with you, Aunt Fanny," she went on, cheerfully. "Uncle John can go by himself, and we will do just what we like while he is away, won't we?" But at this Mrs. Alwynn demurred.
