Dorothy did not face the next morn
ing in Il spirit of buoyancy. She came
into the dining room listlessly and
with a feeling that life was desolate
waste.
Her father and mother were already
at the table, aud Tom soon entered
looking sheepish and conscious. An
unwilling smile of amusement was
forced back by Dorothy as she looked
at his hair and expression. 1t was In
congruous. but she was not going to
