In this way we shall have food to eat and shall live." He leans against the window and looks out anxiously upon the darkening twilight. His mother watches him with curious eyes. Suddenly he electrifies the whole room by whistling in a light and airy fashion his favorite song from "Madame Favart." It is the "Artless Thing," and nothing less, and he whistles it deliberately and dreamily from start to finish. "Yes. Girl with light, frizzy hair and green eye.".

She would have gone to him then, and tried to console him in her own pretty fashion, but he motions her to stay where she is. "To Bantry," says Mona, growing white again,—"to-night! Oh, do you want to kill me and yourself?" "It will be very bitter to me," says Lady Rodney. "Mona," says Rodney, divining her intent, "stay you here while I go and expostulate with these men. It is late, darling, and their blood is up, and they may not listen to you. Let me speak to them.".
