 Edith sat in silence, looking witt: amazed interest at the young womal:. who talked so rapidly that there wa. sometimes difficulty in following what She said.
 No, Lord Freddie was not half So was his language so well chosen; but then, l suppose, the buffers had more practice, for Freddie is very young. 1 am exceedingly disappointed with tho aristocraey. They are not nearly So naughty as l had imagined them to be. But W hat astonished me ill this country is the way you women spoil the mel'. You are much too good to them. You pet them and fawn on them, and such q pity. too, for they are nice fel- lows, most of them. It is the sam2 everywhere I've been-servants' hali and all. Why, when you meet q young couple, of W hat you are pleased to cal the lower classes, walking iu the park the man hangs down his head as h. slouehes along, but the girl looks de iiantly at you, as much as to say: I've got him. Bless him, What have you to say about it?' while the man seems to Be ashamed of himself, and evidently feels that he's been had. Now, a ma.i should ke made to understand that you're 1o!ng him a great favor when you give him a civil word That's the proper state of mind to keep man in. and then you can do what you like with
 aim. l generally make him propose so ,ts to get it over before any real harms done, and to give an artistic finish to the episode. After that you can be real good friends. and have :, jolly time. That's what 1 did with Lord Freddie. We all went up the river cne Gay--two young men friends of FreGtlics and two nice girls, a chap eron, and myself. Would you believe that those two girls proposed to tow us up stream, and the young men actually allowed them to do so. was steering, and 1t made me so angry 1 couldn, speak. Lord Freddie seemed to feel that it was necessary to keep up q conversation, but when I didn't re- ply to him he calmly lit his pipe and began to smoke. The other two re- clined with their hats over their eyes and, 1 think, went to sleep. Mean while the two nice girls trudged along the bank together, pulling the rope. would have sunk the boat if I could, but I didn't know how. We'll, when we got to the place where we were to have tea. the young men said it was jolly nice of the girls to tow them so far; 1 then they went and sprawled under i some trees, leaving the complacent | girls to get tea ready. I couldn't stand , it any longer. I went up to the three | spraWlers under the tree, and. bidding i them good-by, l started down the tow i path. Lord Freddie sprang up and, ! running after ne. asked where I was i going l told him was going to walk 1 back to London. He laughed and said 1 l couldn't; it was 50 miles away. But . when he saw 1 was ia earnest, he be- 1 came anxious to know what the matter i was.

That settled things. Freddie apologizcd, and he i said he would go lack al;d shake the l brutes up a bit, vhich, I suppose, he 1 did, for the brutes were as nice as could be to us after that. When Fred i die and 1 were towing the beat back, he proposed, and I laughed at him l After awhile he began to laugh, too. l and so we had q splendid time. What a lovely little river the Thames is
 isn't it? A nice, clean, little pocket 1 river l would like to buy it and put i it in cur back yard in America, just | to sit and look at it. Now, here am ] chattering away as if I were paid for 1 talking instead of writing. Why ds l you look at me so? Don't you believe ] what I tell you?''

 Why shouldn't I? I am after ac- curate information. I get it in my own
