"And what part of the east? And wnat class of newspaper work did pujrsue?" York, cub reporting, and some jnagazine work on tlie side." You will forgive we 18 dlftcijg ism should abandon it to become a mere superintendent of building construction?" Cecily's cheeks burned until it was hard to keop her hands away from them. That "mere," how un speakable of Gran' to say It! Barry was hesitating.

Undoubtedly be was determining not to answer at all. She couldn't blame him; he was so sensitive about bis health; aud why should he answer all these personal questions?" "Surely, sir" (the darling, be was going to be "I know bow you feel about It. But, you see, I had some annoying bronchial trouble.

Was Barry going to tell him about tbe book that he waa writing? Barry had said that he had told no one out here except Cecily, and that had been gratifying. Still, since be was brilliant and wonderf .1 and wise enough actually to be writing book, she did wish he'd take Grand down a peg by boasting of It.

many years, and said next, "Yes, I have my algebra," which, decoded, meant, "The family is in here, and I can't say a word." share of tha conversation, after that, was made up largely of breathless nega- tory exclamations, prefixed and suffixed unfailingly with her friend's name. "No, Ermintrude!" "Ermintrude, no!" "Really, Brmlntrude!" "Oh, Ermintrude, no!" With an occasional plea for baste: "Oh, hurry, Ermintrude!" The family and their guest strove to carry on. They tried talking over, under, aud around the high silvery tones tbat Mary-Frances used exclusively for telephonic communications. They were worsted in all were enveloped; raised voices gave an impression of commonplaces being shouted in footless competition with the trilling enthusiasms from the east wall.
