'Our grand-duchesses don't talk Russian like that, remarked Arkady. 'She's seen ups and downs, my dear boy; she's known what it is to be hard up! 'Any way, she's charming, observed Arkady. 'What a magnificent body! pursued Bazarov. 'Shouldn't I like to see it on the dissecting-table. 'Hush, for mercy's sake, Yevgeny! that's beyond everything. 'Well, don't get angry, you baby.

I am happy to see that you publish the whole together. The parceling out of such a work would have led to endless delays; but, for mercy's sake, take care of your eyes; they are OURS. I have not neglected the subscriptions in Russia, but I have, as yet, no answer. At a venture, I have placed the name of M. von Buch on my list. He is absent; it is said that he will go to Greece this summer.

"And only one cigar," added the mother. "Say, Molly, you keep closing in on me. Tobacco won't hurt me any, and I get a good deal of comfort out of it these days." "Two," smiled Nora. "But his heart!"

The person who had opened the door was only Mercy's maid. "My lady's love, miss; and will you please to read this directly?" Giving her message in those terms, the woman produced from the pocket of her apron Lady Janet's second letter to Mercy, with a strip of paper oddly pinned round the envelope.

Stephen's reminiscences were at once more distinct and more indistinct, more distinct of his emotions, more indistinct of the incidents. He could not recollect one word which had been said: only his own vivid consciousness of Mercy's beauty; her face "framed in evergreens, with the firelight flickering on it," as he had told her he should always think of it.

"And, for mercy's sake, don't hold your head as if you feared it would tumble off!" "It is the flowers," said she. "They tickle the back of my neck, whenever I move my head. I am much more comfortable in my cap." "Never mind. Make the best of it, and listen to this song." It was the great tenor ballad of the evening.

"Dear me," thought Stephen, as he put it into the carriage at Mercy's feet, "what sort of women are these I've taken under my roof! I expect they'll be very unpleasing sights to my eyes. I did hope she'd be good-looking."

His step was always heavy; but when he was disturbed in spirit, it was slow; when merely fatigued in body by ordinary work, it was quick. "What a broiling day!" he said, and he threw himself into a chair. "For mercy's sake give me something to drink." Now the doctor was a great man for summer-drinks.

Never mind that now. At least you know that Julian Gray is in love with you." "Mr. Julian Gray has never breathed a word of it to me." "A man can show a woman that he loves her, without saying it in words." Mercy's power of endurance began to fail her.
