"I hardly know." When Mīka´pi had come to the Great Place of Falling Water,* it began to rain hard, and, looking about for a place to sleep, he saw a hole in the rocks and crept in and lay down at the farther end.

Mona, stooping, caresses them fondly. They are a part of her old life, and dear, therefore, to her own faithful heart. Having partly undressed, she sits down upon the hearthrug with them, and, with both their big heads upon her lap, sits staring into the fire, trying to while away with thought the hours that must elapse before Geoffrey can return to her again. CHAPTER XXXVI. "My own old pet," says Mrs. Geoffrey, still mysteriously, and with the fondest smile imaginable. "I don't think I understand you," she says, at length, gravely. "Where would the rest of her be, if she wasn't all in the same place?".
