"It has grown so awfully common. Three fellows this year married under-housemaids, and people are tired of it now; one can't keep up the excitement always. Anything new might create a diversion in his favor, but he's done for if he has married another under-housemaid.""Now you are their friend forever," says Mona, in a pleased tone. "Once they do that, they mean to tell you they have adopted you. And they like very few people: so it is a compliment."

"Tell me my fault.",And so matters stood when Mona came to the Towers.,So peace is restored, and presently, forsaking the pats of butter and the dairy, they wander forth into the open air, to catch the last mild breezes that belong to the dying day.,"How cold it is!" she says, rising, with a little shiver. "Let us go home.","Do not trouble yourself to make any further excuse," says Mona, icily.,In the death-chamber silence reigns. No one moves, their very breathing seems hushed.
