The young lady was following the pair; but under pretence of disliking the odor of the cigar, she had refused the Rowski's proffered arm, and was loitering behind with her parasol. Her interposition in favor of her young protege only made the black and jealous Rowski more ill-humored.

"Tom Clary and George Hoey have told us that a nap is the correct thing after dinner on the march. Henry and I are going to try it." "I am sorry, sir," added Henry, "that I was so ill-humored this morning. I will try to do as the soldiers do when they first start out say nothing till day breaks."
