Opposite St. Mary Abbott's church Mr. Iglesias lighted down from the 'bustop. His eyes were still dazzled by those flaming bills. Lionel Gordon was advertising handsomely. The knife-board of every second omnibus displayed them, now he came to look. His thought turned in quickened interest towards the Lady of the Windswept Dust and all that the said advertisements stood for in her case.

But don't give her too much serious stuff. It will only addle her brains." "Oh, she has very good brains. Mrs. Abbott was here just now, and although she is not what I should call literary or too literate she seemed to think your wife was just the sort of woman who should read." "Mrs. Abbott's a damned old nuisance. You must have been overjoyed at the interruption.

"She told my maid, and if we didn't listen to our maids' gossip how much would we really know about what goes on in this town?" Mrs. McLane, Mrs. Ballinger, Guadalupe Hathaway and Sally Abbott were sitting in Mrs. Abbott's large and hideous front parlor after luncheon, and she had tormented them throughout the meal with a promise of "something that would make their hair stand on end."

Charles Abbott's confidence left him little by little; what had seemed so easy in New York, so apparent, was uncertain with Havana about him. The careless insolence of the inspectors with the green-tasseled canes at once filled him with indignation and depression. How was he to begin his mission?

She wanted to disillusion him. The Barone, glooming in an obscure corner of the conservatory, saw them come in. Abbott's brave young face deceived him.

The old wounds, in part healed by his recent absence from the immediate vicinity of his constant discomfiture, had been re-opened and set bleeding afresh by Governor Abbott's treatment of the Citizens' Committee. Whatever lingering hope had remained in his mind of peace with honor for the troubled capital of Alleghenia, seemed to have been effectually dispelled by that interview.
