When you do dance, I wish you "You've been reading novels," says Rodney, contemptuously. "Well, I really wish I had seen her," says the good-humored duchess, smiling in sympathy, and beginning to feel herself more capable of thorough enjoyment than she has been for years.

"No, of course not," says Mr. Rodney, unblushingly! "as a rule, girls nowadays can't endure men with money." "You mustn't think I supposed you kept it for any other purpose," he says, quite solemnly, and in such a depressed tone that Mona almost feels sorry for him. But Mickey is not to be outdone.

"Mona, love makes one cruel: I ask you to remember that, because it is my only excuse," he says, warmly. "Don't condemn me altogether; but forgive me once more.".
