The young man, not without embarrassment, drew forth a Russia leather card-case which the old man took from him as one having authority. "Here you are, Marthy Bines!" he exclaimed, handing her a card; "here you are! read it! Mr. P. Percival Bines. Now don't you feel proud of havin' stuck out for Percival when you see it in cold print?
If you could only see her, if you only knew her then you would understand. I have her picture here " The young fellow took out his card-case. And offered a photograph to the doctor, who gently refused it. The other blushed with embarrassment. "I beg your pardon," he said, "I am ridiculous. That happens to me, sometimes.

This gentleman, issuing from his carriage with his card-case ready in his hand, met Amelius at the door, with a face which announced plainly that a catastrophe had happened.

But all depends on Hugh!" "I'll meet you at ten," gravely answered the stranger lawyer. "This will break up our dinner, I am sick at heart."

Jack's fingers trembled as he drew out the few visiting cards.
Carstyle, flushed and feathered, with a card-case and dusty boots. "I don't ask you in," she said plaintively, to Vibart, "because I can't answer for the food this evening. My maid-of-all-work tells me that she's going to a ball which is more than I've done in years! And besides, it would be cruel to ask you to spend such a hot evening in our stuffy little house the air is so much cooler at Mrs.
