The news of the expected arrivals quickly reached the can; of Mrs. Hither. who came skipping along the garden towards me one morning about a week before the Hammad attacked me at once with much vi- vacity. I crept away as quietly as I could and went back home in an amused. but rather rapturous state; the next time I saw my goddess. though, she was devouring slice after slice of bread and Jam with prosaic' ravenous- ness at the kitchen' door.

But do not forget that l, too, have pride, that l, too, have a duty to perform to my parents." Then came a change of tone, and a sort ot practical paren- thesis, hurried through quickly like a stage direction: "f don't mean my father. of course. bemuse he was so clever that he had to think of his‘ art, and wasn't like a father at all." 1 Then her tone became senti- mental again: "But my m0- ther-mam/G is worthy to have all the wealth of kings showered at her feet.
