In the autumn ! was invited to visit
my friend, Mrs. Swinburne, who never

would rush to the door. then turn

When she and / we're together she
was constantly saying: That reminds
me of a friend Of mine, who is very
clever. He does everything so well.
He was graduated at the head of his
class in college and at the law school.
Not that he is "A bookworm or a grind

"A what?"
Did you never hear of the Scotch
man Of that name who a couple Of

1 felt much irritated at this fellow
who was standing between me and
very pretty girl, and 1 suppose my
words and the tone in which they were

looking at her face, 1 saw a faint
smile, which l interpreted as indicat-

There was a little room in Mrs.

there one morning to write a letter,
and there on the desk was a sheet of

down into wastebasket beside the
desk, saw an envelope addressed to
