Repose is necessary for you,' addressing Julia, 'and I will not suffer a selfish consideration any longer to with-hold you from it.—Grant me but this request—that at this hour to-morrow night, I may return hither to receive my doom.' Julia having consented to receive Hippolitus and Ferdinand, they quitted the closet.

It seemed to proceed from a door which opened upon a back stair-case. They pushed on, but it almost instantly disappeared, and upon the stair-case all was still.

The novelty and excitement could keep Bob awake for only a little while, for the danger into which he was headed did not worry him for a moment, and he was very tired. He wanted adventure and he was going to have it. Only one thing deterred him at all, and that was the thought of his father.

He has committed no violation of the law, no vile sin has been laid to his charge beyond this fatal one of wanting his own—and—and——",Holding it as if it were glass, Bob scratched it on the hard floor. It did not light. Again he pulled it across the hard surface and a little flare spurted from the head and then died out.,"Have they anything to do with the death of Maurice?",Just here the whistle of bob-white sounded from a little distance along the trail.,"He expected to be married last fall, but there was a hitch in getting out his book," said Mr. Hilton, as he finished his salad.
