versation flagged, and there settled upon the company that expectant hush that precedes the dawn--when your neighbours don't happen to keep poultry. "What did the Caspian Sea?" asked Reginald, with appalling suddenness. There were symptoms of a stampede. The Archdeacon's wife looked at me.

I knew that the elaborate curl over his right eyebrow was not guaranteed to survive a sea-mist. * * * * * "Never, never again, will I take you to a garden-party. Never . . . You behaved abominably . . . What did the Caspian see?" A shade of genuine regret for misused opportunities passed over Reginald's face.
