When, at the close of the meal, she brought Morrison some of the cigars Eileen kept for John Gilman, she set a second tray before Linda, and this tray contained two packages. Linda looked at Katy inquiringly, and Katy, her face beaming, nodded her sandy red head emphatically. "More birthday gifts you've havin', me lady," she said in her mellowest Irish voice. "More?" marveled Linda.
I have met her repeatedly and she has always ignored me, and yesterday she singled out for her special attention the most desirable man in my party " "'Most desirable," breathed Linda. "Poor John! I see his second fiasco. Lavender crystals, please!" Eileen caught her lip in mortification. She had not intended to say what she thought.
Besides, there was never a formal appointment, not infrequently, indeed, a disappointment, when the library held nothing but books. Robert Maper merely provided that possibility of an innocent double life, without which existence would have been too savourless for Eileen.
He chatted a while with Miss Marcia, compared notes with her on the effect of the climate on her health and his own, then turned to the young folks. "It is quite useless for me," he began, "to try to express my appreciation of all you people have done for Eileen and myself in the little matter of the bronze box."
When she returned, she laid a dark bundle in the lap of Eileen. "I guess the prize was found some time ago!" she remarked quietly. "Suppose you open that bag and see, Eileen!"

"How do you do, flying soldier man?" chirruped Clarissa Eileen. It was evident that she held Lanstron in high favor. "Let me hear you say your name," said Lanstron. Clarissa Eileen was triumphant. She had been waiting for days with the revelation when he should make that old request.
The baby on its mother's knee only gurgled cheerfully, as though at the best joke in the world. Then Eileen had laid down her half-eaten apple, and turning, had thrust her moist little hand into Lady O'Gara's, warm from her muff. Dear friendly thing!
She managed your father, she pampered him, but she deceived him every day, just about little things. She always made the household accounts bigger than they were, and used the extra money for Miss Eileen and herself things like that. I'm thinkin' he never knew it. I'm thinking he loved her deeply and trusted her complete. I know what ye're getting at.
And Eileen said, "Indeed, musha, 'tis well we're the good children! Sure, the Good Little People would never at all let harm come to the likes of us, just as Grannie said." When they were nearly home, the Twins saw a dark figure hurrying down the road, and as it drew near, their Mother's voice called to them, "Is it yourselves, Larry and Eileen, and whatever kept you till this hour?
