THE INEsTIMABLE FoXuAM


NE of Loveland's most easily
u detected virtues was his care.
~ less habit of telling the truth
He had never lied or even
fibbed whitley as small boy But
Lady Betty Bulkeley had always main
taned that this bold truthfuness OF
her Cousins was the result of incon.
siderate ness rather than nobility of
soul.
She said (ard she ought to have
known, as she had been acquainted
with him since she was two and he
eight years old that he did not bother
to think of polite fbs simply because
the feelings of others were not for him
of enough Importance to seem worth
saving at the cost of mental effort
Besides. according to Betty, Val took
an impish delight in shocking people.
| Now. in his letter to Betty asking for
intloductiOns he made no attempt to
cover his real intentions with the roses
Of pretty fiction
He let it appear plainly that he
thought his cousin, having visited
America and snatched a millionaire
from the matrimonial grab bag, ought
gladly 10 help him succeed in the
same game.
