Do you know where I put that other package of modeling-wax, Elinor?","This is my real introduction to the night-life class," she said, with a sweeping gesture that, unseen to all but the anxious Patricia, caught the cord from its hiding place among the draperies. "And I want this evening to be a sweet memory to us all.","Be more explicit, man," he said sternly. "What do you mean by Mrs. Dallas' place? The house or the grounds?",Patricia thought Doris Leighton looked pale as she stood up on the model stand to read the nonsense verse that was on her candy bag, but her loveliness wrought the same spell on the others as it always had, and they listened to her silvery voice in appreciative silence, and applauded her warmly at the end.,Guide the skilful hand and eye,，Judith merely smiled her superior smile. "I know more about Miss Doris Leighton than you think," she said, nonchalantly. "Her little sister is in my class at school, and I just got acquainted with her yesterday."，Patricia gazed approvingly at the dim, shadowy study of graceful figures grouped in attentive attitudes about a reader in a landscape of suggested loveliness that spoke to any observer with delicate symbolism.，"Why, of course," interrupted Isabella again. "Don't you remember. Dido, you were asked if you had taken it?""Aren't the bags perfect ducks?" she laughed, handling the gauzy bundles with dexterous fingers. "And those verses are too cute for words. What a time we all had over them! Ju's are the best, though she mustn't know it; funny without being personal. It was terribly hard to get such a mob, too. How many are there altogether, Norn?"

"I'm not so sure of that," retorted Maurice; "I love Isabella, and come what may I intend to make her my wife.",Elinor shook her head. "To tell the truth, Miss Pat dear, I almost wish Bruce hadn't gotten me into the life and portrait classes without the regular term in the antique rooms. I shouldn't feel half so shivery about going in there and drawing from those big casts, for I know they are all more or less beginners there.","That's because you expect people to be perfect and then, when they show the tiniest human weakness, you declare them demons at once," said Elinor, gayly. "You couldn't expect her to like overhearing them praise me, could you? I think she tried to be very kind, and I admire her tremendously for it.",I found some, and I don't know why my hand trembled as I handed it to Billy. As soon as he got it he climbed out of the window, glass, frog and all, and I saw him and the old setter go down the garden walk together in pursuit of the desired squirrel, I suppose. I closed the blinds and drew the curtains again and flung myself on my pillow. Something warm and sweet seemed to be sweeping over me in great waves, and I felt young and close up to some sort of big world-good. It was delicious, and I don't know how long I would have stayed there just feeling it if Jane hadn't brought in my letter.,"How did she get into the room?","Oh!" rejoined Etwald, quietly, "Mr. Alymer told me so to-night.",Elinor sat looking at him with her eyes shining, and then she drew a quick breath.,"I never give myself unnecessary trouble," he answered, calmly, "and, of course, I knew that I should find you here.","She is something more than that in Barbadoes.","See widin dat stick," she muttered, eagerly. "I wish to see.","Oh!" rejoined Etwald, quietly, "Mr. Alymer told me so to-night.","Oh, you can't say that, Uncle Jen," remonstrated David..
