"I foresee happy days and clear sailing under such regulations." "If you keep it up," laughed Kit Cameron.

"You're pretty well tired out now, Mrs.Farrington, but I'm not sure you're going to stand aside always, when matters of importance arise." "Yes, she will," declared Roger.

"You see, I shall rule her with a rod of iron, and she'll be so terrified of me, that she won't dare cross my lightest whim." They all laughed at this, for Roger had the most easy-going of natures and had never been known to insist upon his own way.

She looked adorable.

The pale pink of her bridesmaid costume was most becoming and her wreath of pink roses, which had slipped a little to one side, gave her the effect of a Queen Titania.
