"Certainement, mademoiselle," was the smiling reply. Casimer presented the flowers, as if the exploit was a mere trifle. "Now I shall go and press them at once in uncle's guide-book.

Yet do not so, My little one, but think what happiness We shared together, and attend thy tasks Diligently as thou 'rt ever wont to do.

Then the circle narrows, almost imperceptibly, for, of all the planets which circle around the sun, is not Earth the chief? This point being gained, he is inside the geocentric circle. Earth is the centre of creation. Sun, moon, and stars are auxiliary forces, bountifully arranged by the Giver of all Good for Earth's beauty and comfort.
Kittie made one or two flying trips up stairs to see if everything was really beyond further improvement, while Kat vibrated nervously between the porch and the gate, and Bea sat still, looking at her ring, and wondering if Ernestine would like the giver, and what she would say. "There!" cried Kat at last, with a nervous jump. "The train is in, now in just a little bit "
But they, as is only too common with such offerings, trampled the gift under foot and turned and rent the giver. I had counted too much on their good will oh for the rarity of Christian charity under the sun! Oh for the rarity of ordinary secular intelligence also!
