On the last day of the month a step was heard coming up the long alley which led from the riotous scrambling street to the plentiful cheerful heart of the Aurora. The landlady knew the step. She checked the natural flutterings of her ribbons, toned down the strong simper that was on her lips, rose, pushed aside her daughter, and, as the step approached, curtsied composedly.
There, still strolling on the Touranian found himself in the open fields, and there met a poor young girl who, seeing that he was well-dressed, curtsied to him, saying "Heaven preserve you, monseigneur."
"Madam," he said, "this is a very sad story that I have heard." Mrs. Parker again rose, again curtsied, and put her handkerchief to her face. "It is of no use talking any more about it here." "No, sir," said Mrs. Parker. "I and my daughter leave town early to-morrow morning." "Indeed, sir. Mrs. Lopez didn't tell me."
He kissed the hand of the Archduchess and bent over Hedwig's with a flash of white teeth. Then he saw Olga Loschek, and his smile stiffened. The Countess came forward, curtsied, and as he extended his hand to her, touched it lightly with her lips. They were quite cold. For just an instant their eyes met. It was, on the surface, an amiable and quiet teaparty.
Then the first-class girls rose and left their seats in single file, and each as she passed walked up to Miss Clifford, took the hand which she held out, and curtsied good-night to her. The other classes followed in the same order. Miss Clifford said a word or two to some of the girls, and had a smile for all. When Beth's turn came, she made an awkward curtsey in imitation of the others.
The dame curtsied deep and low at each favourable expression; and when the Sub-Prior had done speaking, she added her farther hope that the Sub-Prior would hold some communing with her gossip the Miller, concerning the fate of his daughter, and expound to him that the chance had by no means happened through any negligence on her part.
'I thoroughly understand your story, Mrs. Bower, said Merton. 'We need not keep you any longer, Mrs. Bower, said Logan. 'Nobody need sit up for us; you must be terribly fatigued. 'You wunna forget to rake out the ha' fire, my lord? said the old lady, 'I wush your Lordship a sound sleep, and you, sir, so she curtsied and went, Logan unlocking the door.
Presently a whisper buzzed round them, "Salute the Duke! Salute the Duke!" They looked up, and there on high, under the dais, was their sovereign, bidding them welcome with a kindly wave of the hand. The men bowed low, and Margaret curtsied with a deep and graceful obeisance. The Duke's hand being up, he gave it another turn, and pointed the new-comers out to a knot of valets.
Account of What they Do. Manuscripts must be written plainly and mailed within twenty-four hours of the discovery of the dog to "That will appear in every New York paper tomorrow morning," explained its deviser. "I see," said the girl. "Any one who attempts to take Peter Paul away will be tracked by a band of boy detectives. A stroke of genius, Mr. Average. Jones." She curtsied low to him.
"Indeed, sister, you are far too generous, and you have overpowered me with gifts," she said, when the milliner had curtsied herself out of the room; "for I fear my own income will never pay for all these costly things. Three pounds, I think she said, was the price of the Mazarine hood alone and there are stockings and gloves innumerable."
