Laura would be a safe draw, and although he would not believe half he should hear, out of the bundle of chaff he possibly could collect some grains of wheat which might come in useful. "Devoted couple!" she laughed. "Tristram is by no means the first with her. There is a very handsome foreign gentleman, looking like Romeo, or Rizzio " "Or any other 'O," put in Lord Elterton.

"Yes, if you wish me to " Lord Elterton had now dislodged Young Billy and was waltzing with Zara himself: his whole bearing was one of intense devotion, and she was actually laughing and looking up in his face, still affected by the general hilarity, when the door of the wooden porch that had been built on as an entrance opened noiselessly, and some of the shooters peeped into the room.

Laura Highford, left alone with Lord Elterton up at the end of the long picture gallery, felt she must throw off some steam. She could not keep from the subject which was devouring her; she knew now she had made an irreparable mistake in what she had said to Tristram in the afternoon, and how to repair it she did not know at present, but she must talk to some one.

And Zara saw that Tristram's eyes flashed blue steel, and that he did not like the chaff at all. So, just out of some contrariness he had been with Lady Highford all day so why should she not amuse herself, too; indeed, why should either of them care what the other did so just out of contrariness she smiled again at Lord Elterton and said: "'Then tread we a measure, my Lord Lochinvar."

"She is so very attractive, I am sure, to every man who sees her, Anne. I hope Lord Elterton won't begin and make Tristram jealous. I wish I had not asked him. And then there is Laura It was awful taste, I think, her insisting upon coming, don't you? Anne, if she seems as if she were going to be horrid you will help me to protect Zara, won't you? And now we really must dress."

"I always spoke it until I was thirteen, and since then, too. It is a nice, honest language, I think." "You speak numbers of others, probably?" Lord Elterton went on, admiringly. "Yes, about four or five. It is very easy when one is moving in the countries, and certain languages are very much alike. Russian is the most difficult." "How clever you are!" "No, I am not a bit.

He had not believed it possible that she could have been so gracious, and he had not even guessed that she would condescend to speak so much. And all his old friends had been so awfully nice about her and honestly admiring; except Arthur Elterton he had admired rather too much! And then this exaltation somewhat died down.
