But this black wretch and her confounded mistress have to do with the death of my poor boy, I am certain.",Battersea drew back and began to whimper again.,Maurice returned home after a somewhat stormy interview with Mrs. Dallas. For once the mother of Isabella was roused out of her habitual indifference, and she refused absolutely to accept Alymer as her son-in-law. In vain the lovers implored her to give some reason for her strange refusal, but beyond expressing a personal dislike for Maurice she declined to explain her conduct. The young man saw in this uncalled for behavior the hostile influence of Dido.,Patricia took the bit of canvas board, and held it at arm's length, squinting at it with eyes that gradually brightened.,"The great master," repeated Jen; "you mean Dr. Etwald?"，She watched Margaret Howes and Elinor till they turned into the screened entrance to the portrait room; then she turned to Patricia with easy friendliness.，"I say deep things which you no understan'. Look at ole Dido, you white man."，It struck his sense of smell with the belief that he had smelt it before. Nothing is so strong to awaken memory as odor, and in less than half a minute the mind of the major leaped back to where he had smelt it before. It was the perfume of the dried poison of the devil-stick."I don't know anything about it, Etwald; but truth to tell, Maurice does not like you!"

CHAPTER VII. THE RIVALS.,"But here, as you may guess, I found an unexpected obstacle. The young lady was in love with Mr. Alymer, and would have nothing to do with an elderly bachelor like myself. I determined to remove that obstacle; not by death, but by gentler means which would do away with all risk, and place Miss Dallas in my power. Need I say that I allude to the devil-stick?,"We all want to go to the same place we had such fun in last spring, when we thought we were so rich," said Judith quickly. "Elinor said you were to have first choice, though, as it was your treat.","It's only a week," protested Margaret Howes, firmly. "We had to wait till the Board met, you know.","No, not Dr. Etwald, but the person who stole the devil-stick.",Outside Etwald found Dido waiting for him. He looked at her significantly.,Judith twined her arms about her and kissed her fondly.,There is one exercise here on page twenty that I hate worst of all. You screw up your face tight until you look like a Christmas mask to get your neck muscles taut, and then wobble your head round like a new-born baby until it swims. I did that one twenty extra times and all the others in proportion to make up for those two hours in bed. Hereafter I'll get up at the time directed on page three, or maybe earlier. It frightens me to think that I've got only a few weeks more to turn from a cabbage-rose into a lily. I won't let myself even think "perfect flower" and "scarlet runner." If I do, I get warm and happy all over. I try when I get hungry to think of myself in that blue muslin dress.,The three people turned and saw Dido, with an expression of triumph on her dark face, enter the room.,"We didn't have one till this winter," she said cheerfully. "So I guess we appreciate him for all he's worth.","I am sure of it. When I became ill through the terror of the secret which I possessed. Dido prepared that poison under the pretense of curing me, but I now know that she did so to refill the devil-stick. She then sent it to Etwald, and he killed Maurice. Also he stole the body with the assistance of Dido.","And I," cried the girl, "swear to remain true to Maurice.".
