Perhaps we had better leave it till next Sunday ?" "Why?
Why couldn't she come to-morrow night ?" "It is very good of you.

I have no doubt she would be glad." With this understanding Waymark took his departure.
"Do you remember Ida Starr ?" was Harriet's first question to her husband when he returned that evening.
"Certainly I do," replied Julian, with complete self-control.

"Why ?" "When did you see her last ?" followed quickly, whilst she examined him as keenly as she had done Waymark.
"See her ?" repeated Julian, laughing.

"Do you mean the girl you went to school with ?" "Of course I do." "I don't know that I ever saw her in my life." "Well, she's coming here to-morrow night." An explanation followed.
"Hasn't he ever spoken to you about her ?" Harriet asked.
"No," said Julian, smiling.

"I suppose he thought it was a private affair, in which no one else had any interest." "I hope you will like her," he said presently.
