marks again upon himself, twisted out of all semblance. He was very patient. He inquired quietly, and as if honestly interested, about Frank and said-be- cause he thought it safest as well as most reasonable-that naturally they must have been surprised at his marry ing a native, but he himself had seen some such marriages turn out very well in Japan, India, the South Sea islands and Canada. He assumed that Marion's sister in law was beautiful and then disarmed Marion by saying that he thought of going down to Greyhope i'm mediately to call on General Armour and Mrs. Armour and wondered if she was going back before the end of the season.
 Quick as Marion was, this was said so quietly that she did not quite see the drift of it. She had intended staying in London to the end of the season, not be- cause she enjoyed it, but because she was determined to face Franks mar riage at every quarter and have it over, once for all, so far as herself was con cerned. But nov, taken slightly aback, she said, almost without thinking, that she would probably go back soon-she was not quite sure-but certainly her father and mother would be glad to see Captain Vidall at any time.
 Then, without any apparent relevan- cy, he asked her if Mrs. Frank Armour still wore her Indian costume. In any one else the question had seemed imper- tinent. In him it had touch of confi- dence, of the privilege of close friend ship. Then he said, with meditative look and very calm retrospective voice, that he was once very much in love with native girl in India and might have become permanently devoted to her were it not for the accident of his being ordered back to England summa- rily.
