"I regret to say that the third study on the screen," said Mr. Benton, toying with his eyeglass ribbon, "is merely placed there as a warning to students of all classes to stick to their own ideas and imaginations, and not to attempt the hazardous task of copying stronger and more experienced workers.

Major Jen threw himself into a chair and frowned. The girl unmistakably caught the words, for she turned a brilliant, measuring, half-approving look on her while she slowly began to divest herself of the alluring green apron. She was so evidently used to admiration that her smooth cheek showed no change of color, though the panic red of swift confusion flamed on Patricia's bright face. "Well, have some jam then," I managed to say with a little laugh, as I turned away and picked up the silver spoon. "In that case go down to the kitchen and tell my servants from me that you are to stay there. Later on I'll see you.".
