Being always a creature of impulse, she has stood still on seeing him, and is lost in wonder as to who he can be. One hand is lifting up her gown, the other is holding together the large soft white fleecy shawl that covers her shoulders, and is therefore necessarily laid upon her breast. Her attitude is as picturesque as it is adorable.,"What is amusing you?" asks he, a trifle stiffly.—To give way to recitation, and then find your listener in agonies of suppressed mirth, isn't exactly a situation one would hanker after.,Yet all things in this passing world know an end. In one short moment the perfect picture is spoiled. A huge black dog, bursting through the underwood, flings himself lovingly upon Mona, threatening every moment to destroy her toilet.,"I shall not be too nervous," says Mona, but her face blanches afresh even as she speaks; and Geoffrey sees it.,"Ah, old man," said the son-in-law, "you are lazy and useless. You no longer help me. Go back now to the camp and tell your daughters to come down here and help carry in this meat."，"Go home now to your wife and your child, and when you are hungry hunt like any one else. If you do not, you shall die."，"I really don't know, ma'am. Mitchell gave it to me," says the girl, in an injured tone.

At Violet's last words it flies away, not to return.,"If that be so, she'll make you keep from splittin' on us," says the man. "So now go; we've work in hand to-night not fit for her eyes.","What spirit, what courage, you displayed!

Looking carefully through all, she yet notices that a tiny one, dear to her, because common to her sweet Killarney, is not among his collection.,"Better not remember it," says Violet, but she smiles as she calls to mind Jack's apt quotation.,"And a profusion of gold, too," says Lady Rodney, with a sigh.,"Perhaps you are tired of staying here," says Mona, with compunction, turning to Geoffrey, "and would like to go home?
