Her face was puzzled though not disquiet.,"Does Dido's explanation give you any clew?" she asked quickly.,I was a poor, little, lonely chick with frivolous tendencies, and they all clucked me over into this Carter nest, which they considered well-feathered for me. It gave them all a sensation when they found out from the will just how well it was feathered. And it gave me one too. All that money would make me nervous if Mr. Carter hadn't made Dr. John its guardian, though I sometimes feel that the responsibility of me makes him treat me as if he were my step-grandfather-in-law. But all in all, though stiff in its manners, Hillsboro is lovely and loving; and couldn't inquisitiveness be called just real affection with a kind of turn in its eye?,"Ah, if I hab dat Voodoo stone I be great; great--de queen ob de debbles. But he no let it go.","The green stick with the gold handle which was placed among the weapons here. It is gone. What has become of it?"，"What!" cried Jen, jumping up, "did Dido accuse your mother of the crime?"，"No, I didn't really mean that," cried Elinor, repentantly. "It wasn't a bit like her teasing. Her's always has a good flavor."，Patricia blushed with pleasure, and Griffin called out heartily, "Bring her in, Eitel. There's going to be another!"CHAPTER XX. A STRANGE REQUEST.

"Ah, that is what we wish to find out," said the doctor, gravely. "But how do I know? Battersea may be the thief.",Mr. Spicer and Mrs. Shelly came in almost at the same time, and Miss Jinny's delicious tea and nut-cakes were served with great gayety and lively chatter. The Haldens, having come from a two-days vacation at Rockham, were full of neighborhood gossip and gave very circumstantial accounts of Greycroft, Hannah Ann and Henry.,"Molly dear," she said with her words literally falling over themselves, "Tom says you would give us some of your dinner left-overs to take for lunch in the car, for we are going to take a run down to Hedgeland to see some awfully fine cattle he has heard will be in the market there. I don't want to ask mother, in case she won't let me go; and his mother, if he asked her, will begin to talk about us. Tom said I was to come to you, and you would understand and arrange it all quickly. He sent his love and all sorts of other messages. Isn't he fond of a joke?" And we kissed and laughed and packed a basket, and kissed and laughed again for good-bye. I felt amused and happy for a few minutes—and also deserted. It's a very good thing for a woman's conceit to find out how many of her lovers are just make-believes. I may have needed Tom's deflection.,"Listen, then, and I shall explain," resumed the major, with growing excitement. "I firmly believe that Etwald stole the devil-stick, and with it killed Maurice.","I never want to set eyes on you again," said Jen, bluntly.,"Supper—slice of toast and an apple." Why the apple?

Quickly!","He seems to have been very confidential," said Isabella, scornfully, "and from what I have seen, Dido, he has some influence over you.","How like John Moore the youngster is!" he said, and his voice was so cold to Billy that it hurt me, and I was afraid Billy would notice it.
