and William came UP beside her and said
"Heilos' Hello yourselfs'' she said, and,
etiquette being satisfied. they proceeded 10
talk together.
As Mariana had rep-ehensIble way OF
iettlng her servants talk TO her. she soon
heard 81 him 'sEIe IL such a respectable
young man, rna'am' said Jane. you don't

grieved by Il. and told my wife that sery-
ants ought not 60 wear rings. But my
wife booked IL up in Enquire Within" and

William was at first a rather shabby
young man OF the reaiy-made black-coat
school of costume. Hs had watery gray
eyes and complexion appropriate TO the
brother OF enc in home for the dying.
Mariana did not fancy him very much,
even at the beginning. His eminent re-

himself 10 be parted.
