She then seated herself on the trunk of a fallen tree, that lay at the side of the almost invisible path they had hitherto pursued, and motioning to her companion to unboot himself, proceeded to unlace the fastenings of her mocassins.
Maggie, waiting humbly on his mood, saw that it was propitious. "What cold hands," said she. "And no overcoat? You bad boy." She felt his clothes all over to feel if they were damp. "Tired?" "Just a little, Maggie." She drew up his chair to the fire, and knelt down to unlace his boots. "No, Maggie, I can't let you take my boots off." "Yes, you can, and you will. Does she ever take your boots off?"
He unpinned her hat, took off her coat as a nurse removes a child's coat, kneeled down to unlace her boots, kissed each slim instep, and carried all the things neatly away to their bedroom. Joyfully he unlocked the suit-case where he knew her slippers reposed, for had he not packed them himself, for her, that morning? He returned to the sitting-room and put them on. "Mrs.

"Then let it sound and be hanged to it," answered Alan; "no, I forgot I must hurry. Jeekie, put that fire out and open all the windows as soon as I go down. This room is like a hot-house."

"You observed my smile. You remember we had a little wager. Don't bother to unlace me first. Just give the Bull Durham and cigarette papers to Morrell and Oppenheimer.
