She shook her head, sufficiently at
ease now even to smile in faint de-
rision.
"And what's the future in it, Roy?"
Now that the black dread WAS laid she
could almost like him.

there might be-weii, say marriage

"a rich widow?" Harriet suggested,
simply.
"Or little girl with fortune, like
this little Carter girl" he added,
lightly.
Harriet gave him a swift look.
Don't talk nonsense! Nfna's only
a child!"
"She's almost eighteen, isn't she?"
The girl walked swiftly on for full
minute.
You werent-quite-a child at
eighteen" he reminded her.
The color flooded her transparent
dusky skin.
"That's-exactly- wasr' she
said dryly. "But talk to Nina, if you
don't believe me! Everything that is
school girly and romantic and undevel-

II suppose" the man drawled, that
that is q question for the young lady,
and her parents, and myself to decide"
Harriet bit her lip. This was utterly
unexpected. Into her calculations, up
to this point, she had taken only Royal
Blondin and herself. If his words COW
cred any truth, then the matter did
not stop there. Nina was involved,
and with Nina, Ward and Nina's
father and Isabelle
The complications were endless; her
heart sickened before them. And yet,
the conviction that Royal dared not
betray her had been flooding Harriet's
heart with exquisite reinsurance dur

Charles Dickens Didn't Admire Boat
and Pilot Had Little Use for
the Novelist.

When the Connecticut river was
more nayigabe than 1t is today Dick
ems rode by steamer from Springfield
to Hartford. We are to suppose he
got little pleasure from the trip, for in
describing the steamer in his Ameri-
can Notes, he wrote:
Il am afraid to tell how many feet
short this vessel was, or how many,
feet narrow. To apply the words
length and width to such measurement
would be contradiction in terms
But | may state that we all kept to
the middle Of the deck lest the boat
should unexpectedly tip over"
But If Dickens was critical Of the
boat. says writer In the Springfield
Republican the pilot was no less crit
ical of Dickens. In venting his opinion
of the novelist he characterized him
as '.fussy dude who was afraid to
step up on the gangplank tor fear It
