"Time will soften her grief," says Rodney, with an attempt at soothing. "And she is young; she will marry again, and form new ties." "Why is this?" said her father. "Some of these young men are rich, handsome, and brave." Perhaps, just at first, surprise is too great to permit of his feeling either astonishment or indignation. He looks from Paul Rodney to Mona, and then from Mona back to Rodney. After that his gaze does not wander again. Mona, running to him, throws herself into his arms, and there he holds her closely, but always with his eyes fixed upon the man he deems his enemy..

"Don't talk like a penny illustrated," says Mr. Rodney in a very superior tone. "If ever you do see all you seem to anticipate, just tell yourself I am a cur, and despise me accordingly. But I think you are paying both yourself and me very bad compliments when you talk like that. Do try to understand that you are very beautiful, and far superior to the general run of women, and that I am only pretty well so far as men go." "So do I, often,—very often," says Mr. Rodney, sadly still, but genially. It revives him somewhat. And presently the intenser pallor dies away, and speech returns to him.
