One of the ever-watchful domestics opened the door and into the hall stalked the visitor, followed by his retainers. "I think he must be a messenger from the Emperor, nothing less," said Billie. "He's so awfully grand." "Perhaps he's the Mikado himself," said Mary. The others laughed again and even Nancy forgot her troubles and joined in.

It was a reckless thing for her to do, for such a call might bring upon her a mountain lion or ever-watchful silver-tip; but Snana did not think of that. In a few minutes she heard the light patter of hoofs, and caught a glimpse of a doe running straight toward the fawn's hiding-place.

Walford was about to rush to the gangway, and hail the fast receding boat, when the ever-watchful Talbot caught him by the collar, and flung him from him with an "Ah! would yer," and a kick which sent the unfortunate officer sprawling upon the deck.

Their most trifling communications were scrutinized with so much jealousy that when any of importance were to be made it required a dexterity almost miraculous to screen them from the ever-watchful eye of espionage.

Suddenly Madge uttered a cry of alarm, and pointed towards the opposite wall.

"Nothing," he declared in one of his sermons , "has appeared more insufferable to the arrogance of libertines than to see themselves continually under the observation of this ever-watchful eye of Providence. They have felt it as an importunate compulsion to recognise that there is in Heaven a superior force which governs all our movements and chastises our loose actions with a severe authority.
