Thither the three young men went in the wake of the major. It was a comfortable room, with one wide window, which at the present moment was open. Outside, the light of the newly-risen moon bathed lawn and trees and flowers in a flood of cold silver; and the warm radiance of the lamp poured out rays of gold into the wonderful white world without. The three men sat down in comfortable chairs, and the major went to get out a particular brand of cigars which he offered to favored guests. "Oh, Norn," she gasped, dropping her hand and searching Elinor's flushing face with questioning eyes. "You too?" "You ought to be taking more care of yourself," she said, with concern.
