daughter of Judge Boles" She smiled knowingly upon
her visitor.
Something cold seemed to clutch at the visitors
heart. aOh! Augustus?" she managed to say.
The old lady nodded confdentially. Augustus
doesn't know she is coming" she whispered.
Hell be swept off his feet. He hasn't her for al

he ever mention her to you? Well perhaps men don't

Mrs. Barter backed into the hall and swept excitedy
