But did what interested you interest Leila ?" "No--no, indeed, sir.

It troubled Aunt Ann because she could not make her see things.

Usually at night before bedtime we read some of the Gospels, and then once a week Acts.

Every now and then Leila would sit still and ask such queer questions--about people." "What kind of questions, John ?" He was interested and curious.
"Oh, about Peter's mother and--I forget--oh, yes, once--I remember that because aunt did not like it and I really couldn't see why." "Well, what was it ?" "She wanted to know if Christ's brothers ever were married and if they had children." "Did she, indeed! Well--well!" "Aunt Ann asked her why she wanted to know that, and Leila said it was because she was thinking how Christ must have loved them, and maybe that was why He was so fond of little children.

Now, I couldn't have thought that." "Nor I," said Rivers.
