"You don't intend me to understand," said he, after a minute's steady scrutiny, "that this is a photograph of actual children?" Miss Ruston nodded. Her face glowed with enthusiasm over her work. "Indeed it is. Flesh and blood children Rupert and Rodney Trumbull. And it's really the night before Christmas, too. They were not acting the part it was the real thing."
Bring the little grandmother carefully wrapped in jeweller's cotton nothing is too good for her!" When luncheon was over Mrs. Burns and her guest went off for a long drive, Miss Ruston being anxious to explore the region of which she had heard as offering a field for her camera.
The lady will excuse you, and I won't, so there you are. Forgive me, Miss Ruston, and don't bring on heart failure by walking too fast in this August sun." "I won't. Good-bye, and thank you both," and Charlotte set briskly off toward home, while the car swept round the turn and disappeared into a hollow of the road.
She gave Rose some statistical information about the twins instead, in which Rose showed herself politely interested and presently withdrew. It soon appeared, however, that though Mrs. Ruston might be slow and sparing of speech, she was capable of acting with a positively Napoleonic dash.
"It will almost absolutely overcome the flatness of the flashlight, as you will see when we develop it if you will let me stay so long. Now " The flash flared and died. Brant smiled with gratification. If he knew what he was doing he had a new portrait of Charlotte Ruston which would surpass anything he had yet made of her.
"Or do you prefer trudging all the way back with that camera and tripod?" "I'm delighted to ride, Dr. Burns," replied Charlotte Ruston. "Captivating roadside views enticed me much farther than I intended, and the camera weighs twice what it did when I started." "Jump in, then, and let me give you a piece of good news I'm bursting with," and Burns held out his hand for the camera.
"People who have hair like Miss Ruston can go bareheaded where the rest of us have to tie ourselves together to keep from blowing away," observed Martha. Her husband laughed. "I never heard you own quite so frankly before that parts of you were detachable," said he. "They're not!" cried Martha, indignantly.
Her bag was packed, her trunk was gone, her motor waiting at the door to take her to the station, when the maid Doris brought the twins home from their airing. This wasn't chance, but prearrangement. "Give them to me;" Rose said, "and then you may go up and tell Mrs. Ruston she may have them in a few minutes." She took them into her bedroom and laid them side by side on her bed.
Vor einem Jahre, da sie ührer uns, als währen wir besiegt, spotteten, saben sie nicht voraus, dass ihnen dies Kreut bevorstebe. Der Herr regiert...Ochsenfart soll sich wider das Büchlein Feldkirchens rüston, in welchem er durch gehechbelt wird. Ich habe ein deutsches Buch wider den Esel von Alveld fertiggestellt, welches jetzt under der Presse ist."
Leaver and Miss Ruston seemed to be in the habit of quietly avoiding each other. But she was not the woman to ask her friend's confidence, since it was not voluntarily given. She could only wonder why two people from the same world, apparently so well suited to each other, should be so averse to spending even a few moments together.
