"Well," said he cautiously, "I looked out at the night when the hour was twelve, and--" But on the way home I gave myself the surprise of my life! Suddenly I turned my face against his sleeve and cried as I never had before. I felt safe, for it is a steep road, and he had to drive carefully. However, he managed to press that one arm against my cheek in a way that comforted me into stopping when I saw we were near town.

"How much," squeaked the leader, more shrilly than ever, "did Bruce Haydon bribe the Board to let you in?" "I am afraid it is too late for me to take your advice, doctor," he said, merrily. "I am in love." Self-contained as ever, Etwald looked up at the wall near him, and seemed to be considering a decoration of savage arms, which looked barbaric and wild, between two oil-paintings. When Jen came back with the cigars, his gaze followed that of his guest, and he made a remark about the weapons.
