ward the Seventh beard. Amelia, like wise full-boded, showed glittering blond hair exuberantly dressed; pink, fat face cold under white-hot tiara; a solid cold bosom under a white-hot necklace; great, cold, gloved arms, and the rest of her beautifully upholstered. AS George asccnded the broad stairway they were precisely the aunt and uncle he was most pleased to point out to girl from out of town, as his appurtenances in the way of relatives. At sight of them the grandeur of the Anderson family was instantly conspicuous as perma- nent thing: it was impossible to doubt that the Ambersons were intrenched. in their nobility and riches, behind polished and glittering barriers which were as solid as they were brilliant, and would last.

CHAPTER ".

The hero of the fete, with the dark eyed little beauty upon his arm, reached the top of the second flight of stairs; and here, beyond a spacious landing, where two proud-like darkies tended a crystalline punch bowl, four wide archways in rose-vine lattice framed gliding silhouettes of waltzers, already smoothly at it to the castanets of La Paloma." Old John Minafer, evidently surfeited, was in the act of leaving these delights escorted by middle-aged man of commonplace ap- pearance. The escort had dry, lined face upon which, not ornamentally but as matter of course, there grew a business mans short mustache; and his thin neck showed an Adams apple, but not conspicuously, for there was nothing conspicuous about him. Bald ish, dim, quiet, he was an unnotice-

Georgie was reported to have differed with the undertaken about the seating of the family; his indignant voice had become audible i: "Well, who is the most important per son at my own grandmother's fu- neral?" And later he had projected his head from the window of the fore most mourners' carriage as the under taker happened to pass.
 'Riffraff!"
 There were peOple-grown people they were-who expressed themselves longingly: they did hope to live to see the day, they said, when that boy would get his come-upance! (They used that honest word, so much bet ter than "deserts," and not until many years later to be more clumsily ren- dered as "what is coming to him.") Something was bound to take him down some day, and they only wanted to be there! But Georgie heard noth- ing of this, and the yearners for his taking down went unsatisfied, while their yearning grew the greater as the happy day of fulfillment was longer and longer postponed.
