There were several nice-looking people standing around when at last we arrived on the dais. Mrs. Gurrage greeted most of them gushingly and introduced me. "My future daughter-in-law, Miss Athelstan." It may have been fancy, but I thought I caught flashes of surprise in their eyes. One lady Lady Tilchester the great magnate in the neighborhood, spoke to me.

"Well, laugh," said Cora, half laughing herself, "but I am beginning to feel ambitious. Do let's try to set something afoot to make us feel as if we were alive, and glad that we were." "Agreed, Cora," cried Miss Arthur, gushingly, "only tell us what it shall be." "Suggest, suggest;" this from Davlin. The spinster glanced up coquettishly, "Edward, you suggest."

The two guests were in high spirits, and talked gushingly of the young ladies they had met, and they wondered that it did not provoke even a sarcasm from him. "It would compensate you for not going," said Ranney, kindly, "if we were to tell you what was said of you in your absence." "And who said it," added Henry. Not a word, nor a look even.

At last, "Look here," he said, "talking of meeting strangers, don't stare at poor little Edna when you meet! There is er something about her eyes, and she is very sensitive about it. Try and look as if you don't notice it, you know." "Oh, I will!" cried Norah gushingly. She knitted her brows together, trying to think what the "something" could be.

"I'll tell you the whole story," Herman exclaimed, flinging himself into a chair. "It is all simple enough. It is always simple enough to tangle things up so that Lucifer himself cannot unsnarl them. When I was in Rome I was in love crazily, gushingly in love, you understand, like a big schoolboy with a girl I found in Capri.

Rexhill, who openly showed her delight in meeting one of such distinguished appearance, and with a great display of cordiality, she introduced him to her daughter Helen. "It is her coming-out party, Mr. Wade," she said, gushingly, "and you must do all you can to make it a happy occasion."

She was an unhappy little exile, and could only relieve her anguish of soul by daily letters to Cecily, which the faithful and obliging Judy Pineau brought up for her. These epistles were as gushingly underlined as if Sara had been a correspondent of early Victorian days. Cecily did not write back, because Mrs.

"I told you you mustn't get him started," went on Miss Keith, gushingly. "He'll talk forever if he has a chance. But you would do it. Asking him if he kept pomegranates and bread-fruit! The idea! I'm sure he doesn't know what a pomegranate is. You were SO solemn and he was SO ridiculous! I thought I should DIE. You really are the drollest person, Crawford Smith!

And Glendower knelt beside his wife, and, despite his words, tears flowed fast and gushingly down his cheeks; and wearied as he was, he watched upon her slumbers, till they fell from the eyes to which his presence was more joyous than the day. It was a beautiful thing, even in sorrow, to see that couple, whom want could not debase, nor misfortune, which makes even generosity selfish, divorce!
