"Delight to bark and bite." "Oh, yes "How doth the little busy bee Delight to bark and bite "How does it go on, Cyril?" said Frank. "To gather honey all the day, And eat it all the night," whispered the audacious brother, conjuring into memory the schoolboy version of that celebrated poem.

My companion commenced operations by displaying a number of conjuring tricks intended to impress all present with the loftiest opinion of his powers, and stopped every now and then to make his dragoman explain that it would prove in vain to endeavor to deceive a being endowed with such gifts.

The conjuring had been accomplished so craftily and slyly, the bewitched plank in one place, and Mrs Keswick far off in another, that there had been no chance to use the counteracting charm. And yet Aunt Patsy had thought it a good charm, a very good one indeed. Early in her married life Mrs Keswick had been the mother of a little girl.
