"And that it's an awkward matter to play with souls," Beulah contributed; whereupon Jimmie murmured, "Browning," sotto voice. "She may be all that you say, Gram," Jimmie said, after a few minutes of silence, "a thunderingly refined and high-minded young waif, but you will admit that without an interpreter of the same class, she hasn't been much good to us so far."

'My Uncle Jellyboy wouldn't let such a frost stop him, I know, observed the boy. 'Who's your Uncle Jellyboy? asked Miss Glitters. 'He's a farmer, and keeps a few harriers at Scutley, observed Bob Spangles, sotto voce.

"The dinner-bell of the house!" said Hen, sotto voce, as the orator sat down, smiling tiredly amid familiar applause. "Don't be discouraged yet, Cally." Director Pond, having been most flatteringly introduced, received an ovation, half for the man and his work, half from the wish of a kindly people to bid the stranger welcome.

"Does he know Richard is coming up to-night?" asked Sophie, sotto voce, but with affected carelessness. "I do not know; oh yes, he does, I mentioned it to him at dinner-time, I remember now." "Well, I'll see if I can do anything for him; now go, they're waiting for you. Have a pleasant time." After they were gone, Sophie went into the library, but she did not stay very long.

"Faith, ye're roight, sor; we'd betther count noses an' have the job over," returned Garry, sotto voce, singing out in a louder key to the survivors of the fray, who were grouped in the waist about the mainmast, where the remaining Haytians who had not been killed outright were tied up feet to the wrists, as the skipper had told Colonel Vereker when he came up.

"To see something!" says her aunt, "why it was only last Sunday I took you to Westminster Abbey, where you saw the grandest edifice in all the world."

She looked at me a moment, blushed deeply, and asked hesitatingly: "Are-are you the paragraphist?" "Yes," I said, with a burst of laughter, "as truly as yours is the only witchcraft in which I believe-that of brains." Then putting my finger on my lips, I added, sotto voce: "Don't betray me. Mr. Yocomb would set all his dogs on me if he knew I were an editor, and I don't wish to go yet."

Across the room Madam Moores regarded them from beside the pile of sheeny silks, her fingers plucking nervously at the fabrics. "Hurry up over there, Phonzie. I told her the black lace was on the way." Miss Dobriner daubed at her red lips with a lacy fribble of handkerchief, her voice sotto behind it. "Don't let her pin you, Phonzie. Have a heart and take me to supper when I'm blue as indigo."

As the companies formed up, the "Legion's March" was played, and the young soldiers who had never heard it, unless whistled sotto voce by old Legionnaires, felt the thrill of its tempestuous strains in the marrow of their bones.
