"It is a little early, but they say express packages are always sure to be delayed at this season, and I would simply not live through it if Johnnie did not have his steam engine for Christmas morning. It was awfully sweet of you, Doro, to lend me that money." "Why shouldn't I when you had to spend yours for needed things? I only wish it had been twice as much.
Artois, in fancy, could see his friend Doro for once completely disarmed by a child. Vere's innocence did not spring from folly, but was backed up by excellent brains. It was that fact which made it so beautiful. The innocence and the brains together might well read Doro a pretty little lesson. And Vere after the lesson would she be changed?
These and other "striking things" she outlined to serious Dorothy, who now in the early morning sat so close to the car window, and seemed to hear nothing of the foolish prattle, as the train rattled on. "Don't be a funeral, Doro," objected Tavia. "It's the best fun I ever dreamed of. Wait till they call on me to testify! Ahem! Won't I make a stir!" "But we are not going to testify at all "
That is, the young lady went out to buy something and when she came back the girl was gone." "Did she run away?" "Haven't the least idea. But say, Doro, we will be late, sure pop, and me putting on airs this morning. Quarter of nine. Now let's see if we can beat last night's record.
Don't you see by bringing trouble to you and your folks your father would become unpopular?" "And get left!" "Yes; be defeated." "But he will not!" and Tavia's brown eyes danced significantly. "The squire is down and out. And worse yet he has to run for his money. Now my own dear dad will have a chance. Oh, Doro, I love politics better than eating.
Certainly he did not love Doro on the island, but perhaps it was as well that they should meet there once, and get over their little antagonism, an antagonism that Artois thought of as almost childish. Life was not long enough for quarrels with boys like Doro. Artois had refused Hermione's invitation on the sea abruptly.
You remember my mentioning my friend, the Marchesino Panacci? Well, he is with me. We were going to fish. The fishermen suggested our sleeping in the Saint's Pool for an hour or two first. I found Doro gone and came to look for him." There was still a faint embarrassment in his manner. "I believe you have seen him," he added.
"Doro, dear, if you only would get over that abominable thinking habit! See what happened to me when I thought I was was going to be locked up for the night in the little railroad station! Why, along whisked an auto, and the lady with the scared-to-death-hair looked at me. Seeing me was believing. That was what I got for thinking on the wrong stoop. And weren't they dears? Did you mind the veils?
Why didn't you yell like thunder?" "And have him put some terrible gag down my throat?" "And get all sorts of germs therefrom," added Joe. "Doro, you did just right, and we are thankful that you got off as well as you did," and her brother shook his head proudly, as if to say that a mere cousin could hardly know how a closer relative would feel on such a matter.
"Who said that?" demanded Nat, promptly scrambling to his feet. "Before we know it," repeated Ned, with special emphasis on the "before." "However do you bear with them, Doro dear?" asked Mrs. White. "They seem to grow more unmanageable every day." Then Dorothy, making herself heard above the argument, said: "Boys, if we are going to meet Tavia "
