Not illustrated. 1891 Excerpt: ...Then there was silence for awhile. Jeannette, whose passion--raised as much by her misgivings respecting the part she herself was taking in the matter as by her distrust of Adair--had by no means subsided, was wondering whether it might be judicious or not to give him a bit more of her mind. Adair, upon whom her warnings had had no more effect (except that they angered him) than a lesson upon economy read to a spendthrift, was considering his next step--a visit to 'The Laurels.'

'And what reason would you suggest, my good girl, for my calling at "The Laurels "?' 'I should have thought you were the last young gentleman in the world to be in want of a reason for anything, ' returned Jeannette, naively; but, as it happens, you must not call at all. My mistress won't see you and that's flat.' 'Not see me? Why you told me yourself that she had resolved to come out of her shell.' 'Yes: but you are to remain in yours. Come when you're asked, but don't force your...
