"It is the way of her world. There is more in training than one quite knows. Now, you are altogether different. I know that; it is perhaps the reason why you have made my heart your own.

"I have said so many things about you, that—that——" "Well, I noticed that, too. There did seem to be a great scarcity of that raw material," answers Darling, lightly.
