"Yet, dear Mona, I wish you could try to be a little more like the rest of the world.",It is ten days later,—ten dreary, interminable days, that have struggled into light, and sunk back again into darkness, leaving no trace worthy of remembrance in their train. "Swift as swallows' wings" they have flown, scarce breaking the air in their flight, so silently, so evenly they have departed, as days will, when dull monotony marks them for its own.，"Has he the will?" asks Mona, foolishly, but impulsively.，"I guess I didn't think about it," said the boy.
