Gloria's thought of the two as the composite guardian of her important young peace and happiness as well as money. For Gloria was rich. "I suppose I might go down and ask him this morning. It's a bore, but perhaps it will pay. Abou Ben Adhem, I'll do it!" Abou Ben Adhem, the great silver cat in her lap, blinked indifferently.
Whatever the ups and downs of party supremacy, despite all attempts by gerrymandering to relegate him to the shades of private life, Judge Holman, with unruffled front, "a mien at once kindly, persuasive, and patient," held sturdily on his way. Amid political upheavals that overwhelmed all his associates upon the ticket, his name, like that of Abou Ben Adhem, led all the rest.

At last Abou Ben Adhem slid with a soft thud to the piazza floor. It was his signal that no more petting was desired for the time. Gloria, too, got out of the big rocker and went into the house. "Aunt Em, would you want to be a District Nurse and never get home? I've watched till I'm 'blind of seeing." "It can't be a very desirable position, dear you won't ever be one, will you?"
