then. you don't know how pretty my
little one is when she smiles, he went
on, cnthusia' 'tically.
And wondering how she could ever
be pretty, | forgot to answer So.
after momentary pause, he said:
Edith is more beautiful than ever,
| see
"Ah," | thought, che could not
help comparing these two-tho girl he
had needlessly thrown aside and the
girl he had linked himself to for life" "
1t was not longed before Ste was
more like herself" as Gerald said.
Her sorrow had been so wild and so
passionately that naturally it soon
wore itself out. The color soon came
back to her dark cheeks, an additional
lustre TO her eyes, and could often
hear her carolling snatchcs of songs,
They were mostly French ones
some with wonderful pathos ringing
through them; and her pronunciation

woolng, but since, Edith had seemed
more fayorably inclined towards him.
He was passionately fond of singing
and had Il superb voice. Edith could
not sing Il note, but Ste's and Mark
Pcrcval's voices blended splcnddly
together. Thus hours were spent
every hour, | thought, that he could
spare from his practcc-in these duets.
And Gerald, who was also passion
