Rather than lose her, he would toil at any most ignoble pursuit, amply repaid by the hope she granted him. They had walked some distance, and were out of sight of the Mergellina, on the ascending road of Posillipo, all the moonlit glory of the bay before them. "It will be long before we see it again," said Madeline, sadly. "We will spend our honeymoon here," was Clifford's hopeful reply.
FEB. 15.-Our honeymoon ends to-day. There hasn't been quite as much honey in it as I expected. I supposed that Ernest would be at home every evening, at least, and that he would read aloud, and have me play and sing, and that we should have delightful times together. But now he has got me he seems satisfied, and goes about his business as if he had been married a hundred years.
It was to Dudhope Claverhouse brought his bride, after that stormy honeymoon which she had to spend under the shadow of her mother's hot displeasure in Paisley Castle, and he occupied with the weary hunt of Covenanters up and down the West Country. Their wedding day was the 10th of June, but it was not till August that Claverhouse and his wife came home to Dudhope.
"Humph!" her chum observed, "I begin to believe it will be just as much a honeymoon car with you and Tom in it as with that other couple. 'Bless you, my children!" She ran back to the big car with this saucy statement. Tom grinned, slipped behind the wheel, and started the roadster slowly. "It must be," he observed in his inimitable drawl, "that Sis has noticed that I'm fond of you, Ruthie."

Shutting their eyes and ears to the outer world they fancy that the sun, moon and stars shine for them, alone; that nature's smiles are specially prepared for them; that the birds carol bridal chansonettes only for their benefit; and that the whole world is contained in the small area which immediately surrounds them. Mr. and Mrs. Wilkie had a long, pleasant honeymoon.
That accomplished, the earth might freeze over her for ever. No, there was nothing for Charles to wait for. He could not go on with his honeymoon, so he would go up to London and work he felt too miserable hanging about. He and Dolly would have the furnished flat while his father rested quietly in the country with Evie.
The things he wanted to say were tumbling over each other in his mind. The bewildering idea that he was going to be married the next day sent all his thoughts reeling. Margaret was not the sort of girl to worry over a lot of superficial clothes for a ten days' honeymoon. What she needed she had got together in a couple of hours at Harrod's and one or two good shops in the West End.
Then he said pleasantly, "I've taken out my naturalisation papers." After lunch, he told us about his Angela, and displayed her photograph. "She's coming out," he added shyly, "as soon as I've got things fixed." "Coming out?" we repeated in amazement. "It's all settled," said Jim. "I'm to meet her in 'Frisco; we shall be married, and then I'm going to bring her here for the honeymoon.
But there were still a few days left of the honeymoon, of which they had spent the last half in Canada, and on this May night they were journeying from Toronto along the southern shore of Lake Ontario to the pleasant Canadian hotel which overlooks the pageant of Niagara.
