"You suspected?" he cried in amazement and chagrin. "I was morally certain that they were here. Today my suspicions were justified. I encountered Mr. Totten in the park beyond the Jungfraublick. He was very much upset, I can assure you, but he recovered with amazing swiftness. We sat on one of the benches in a nice little nook and had a long, long talk. He is a charming man.

Swear youse'll keep mum an' see me through!" "Yes, Nan" Rhoda Gray's eyes smiled reassurance "I swear it. But you will be all right again in the morning." "Will I? You think so, do you? Well, I can only say that I wish I did!" Rhoda Gray leaned sharply forward, staring in amazement at the figure on the bed.

"But " cried Miss Lucretia, in amazement and apprehension, "but what are you going to do?" "I am going to Coniston," said Cynthia, "to ask him if those things are true." "To ask him!" "Yes. If he tells me they are true, then I shall believe them." "If he tells you?" Miss Lucretia gasped. Here was a courage of which she had not reckoned. "Do you think he will tell you?"

This hunting-party took place according to announcement; but to the unbounded amazement of the entire suite of the Emperor, just as we were on the point of re-entering our carriages, instead of taking the road to Paris, his Majesty gave orders to proceed to Fontainebleau.

Alas! yes, you take it all as a matter of course. If we would always have your smiles and your disdainful love, we should need the power of God in heaven.
