But as she took up her light aluminium opera-glasses to make sure whether it was Isabel Poppit or not who was now stepping with that high, prancing tread into the stationer's in the High Street, she exclaimed to herself, for the three hundred and sixty-fifth time after breakfast: "It's very baffling"; for it was precisely a year to-day since she had first seen those mysterious midnight squares of illuminated blind.
"And now, let us get started, or we shan't get out on the street to-day," urged Belle. Then they passed out on the street, and no ordinarily observant person would have suspected them of being anything more than school friends. Being very matter-of-fact in some respects, Belle's first move was to go to a stationer's, where she bought a little notebook bound in red leather.
Craven, looking up at the eight-day clock which stood in the passage. "If you go and stand by the principal entrance, you are safe to see her." "Thank you," said Susy. "You are sure you wouldn't rather wait in the house?" "No, really. Mother expects me back. My name is Susan Hopkins. My mother keeps the stationer's shop in the High Street."

He had no friends in Petershof, and apparently had no friends anywhere. No one wrote to him, except his old mother; the papers which were sent to him came from a stationer's.
