Invitations for tea at the tuck shop poured in thick and fast, but Catherine answered for her: "Not a bit of it; she belongs to the 'Jolly Susan' first of all, and we've a spread of ship's rations in my room all ready for the occasion." Judith looked so radiant at the party that Sally May, who always knew the latest bit of gossip, said disappointedly,

"When do you think you will get off, Giff?" she said. "I'm not quite sure," he answered; he was sitting on one of the lower steps, and leaning on his elbow in the grass, so that he might see her face. "I suppose it will take a fortnight to arrange everything." "I'm sorry for that," Lois said, disappointedly. "I thought you would go in a few days."

Suddenly Charlotte saw Anderson's face in her thoughts for the first time very plainly. "Yes," she said, "of course. Let us go in the other room, Eddy, and see if Amy doesn't want anything." She led Eddy forcibly into the parlor. "It is so late, I am afraid he won't come," the little boy said, disappointedly, when the clock on the mantel struck eleven just as they entered.

Another mood leads us to look back into the past dolefully and disappointedly, to say, 'I have broken down so often; my resolutions have all gone to water so quickly; I have tried and failed over and over again.

But I fancy he finds the boys quite enough to handle during the daytime, without having the care of them at night. And to be frank I do not approve of the idea at all."
