"Billy," spoke Betty, softly. "I'm sure Grace didn't mean " "Oh, I know it!" exclaimed Mollie, contritely. "It was horrid of me to flare up that way. But sometimes I can't seem to help it. I beg your pardon, Grace. Eat as many chocolates as you like. I'll help you. Isn't that generous?" She clasped her arms about the "Gibson-girl," and held her cheek close to the other's blushing one.
"Donal'," he said gravely, "it will not be right to be speaking this way of God's minister. I am thinking you would not be doing it before you went away, lad." Donald was smitten with remorse.

"I'm sure it will not, for after this I'll see to it that the room is in order after you get through dressing." "Oh, Mary, don't be so hard. Won't you forgive me? I'm sure I'm ashamed enough." "It is no use talking further about it," was the grim response.
