than merely good game.
Not only "fcarfully easy to look
at" las Fanny confded to Lucinda)
but fair spoken and well, if at times
a shade carefully hammered, he was
intelligent and ready of wit.
BY nightfall of the second day. it
was possible for Lucinda to make up
her mind that she liked Lynn Sum
merlad decidedly. True that he was
not of her world; but then neither
was she herself, any longer, in this
anomalous stage Of the apostate
wife, neither wife nor widow, not
even honest divorce.
If Summerlad's character as she
read it had faults, if an occasional
crudity hawed his finish, these
things were held to be condonable in
view of his youth. He seemed ridicu-
lousTy young to Lucinda but sure to
improve with age, sure TO take oa
polish from rubbing up against life.

that it would be a job to interest her.
An absurd turn of thought, anyway.
Why she had wasted time on it she
really didn't know. Unless. of
course, its incentive had lain in con-
,sciousness OF Summerlad's naive
,captivation. One couldn't very well
overlook that, He was so artless
about it, boyish, and-well-nice. 1t
was most entertaining.
1t was also, if truth would out, far
from displeasing.
