"Whatelid you ;go to the river for?"

•By the way, dear," I lasked, chang-

"You promised Ganeesk you

"Very weak"' then," Myra sighed,
"I'll try to be good. But I hope he'll

• "Where do you think we eaeld get

"If its frightfully important, dear,

"We'll go into the den land tell you

promised. "Is there any objectien

"None whatever," Myra declered,

nervously turned over the pages.
"Ah! here's a page I didn't see," I
exclaimed excitedly, but the only thing
on the whole page was a photograph
of a new dancer ;appearing an, London.
• Without:waiting 'for me -ba do so, Den-

"Phew! I exclaimed involuntarily,

"Oh! what 'telt? Tell me!" pleaded
