In his face there grew a yearning and a hopelessness that was beyond anything to describe. It was like a face that is suffering pain of fire and studying to be brave, yet burns and suffers and is not consumed. That was the look in Mark Carter's eyes and around his finely chiseled lips.
But Ethel looked very lovely in it as she preened herself before the mirror, and was fully aware of the fact. "What are you going to wear, Toinette?" she asked. "I've never worn anything but white yet," answered Toinette. "At Miss Carter's all my dresses were ordered by Miss Emeline, and she said I ought not to wear anything else till I was eighteen. I hope Miss Preston won't say the same."
We had no way of hearing the news, for Carter Flagg's store is not on our line, and when we tried to get it Central always answered that the line 'was busy' as no doubt it was, for everybody for miles around was trying to get Carter's store for the same reason we were. "About ten o'clock Gertrude went to the 'phone and happened to catch someone from over-harbour talking to Carter Flagg.
Howard Carter's wonderful coloured reproductions, published in Prof. Naville's edition of the temple by the Egypt Exploration Fund. The Great Temple stands to-day clear of all the débris which used to cover it, a lasting monument to the work of the greatest of the societies which busy themselves with the unearthing of the relics of the ancient world.
Stretching away from the foot of Malvern Hill, in the hostile direction, lay a large open space known as Carter's Field a field destined that day to be more thickly sown with dead than almost any historic spot on the globe except some portions of the field of Waterloo or that of Grokow.

"You seem very fond of her," said Rosamund suddenly. "I don't know what I should have done without her. She saved my life and my reason."
"On the other hand," Richard said, glancing at his watch, "we have an excellent prospect of finding them there. I was not supposed to come home until to-morrow night. I found Mrs. Carter's message at five, twenty-four hours earlier than she expected me to. Williams may be mistaken, of course," he finished, with a glance at the detective. "Not likely!" said Williams, with a modest shrug.
"Did you want to get rid of him?" "Partly," replied Craig, descending slowly, after a long survey of the surrounding country. We had reached the garage, deserted now except for our own car. "I'd like to investigate that tower," remarked Kennedy with a keen look at me, "if it could be done without seeming to violate Mr. Carter's hospitality."
All day Philip had been telling himself that this was the last time he would ever sit in that hateful office. "Yes, this is the end of my year." "I'm afraid you've not done very well. Mr. Carter's very dissatisfied with you." "Not nearly so dissatisfied as I am with Mr. Carter," returned Philip cheerfully. "I don't think you should speak like that, Carey." "I'm not coming back.
This system of "pickings" was, alas! the cause of Paul-Louis Carter's assassination; he committed the mistake of advertising the sale of his estate and allowing it to be known that he should take away his wife, on whom a number of the Tonsards of Lorraine were battening.
