Then he laid aside his book to think, and through the smoke curling from his pipe he stared idly at the opposite wall.

Elinor gave a hasty assent, but Patricia was ardent. "I wonder what keeps Elinor? She's awfully late," complained Judith, shifting on one foot. "Let's go in and have lunch without her." "She has everything to do with them. She will be brought up against you as a witness." "The devil-stick!" he cried. "By all that is wonderful, the devil-stick!".
