He was. how- -ever, quite puzzled at'the sudden and energetic -interest that Mary seemed ,to manifest in all that he said; but, encouraged by it, he soared" into giddy heights of eloquent self exploitation. ,H_e wound up the whole monologue A with a passionate avowal of his love - for Mary and an almost tearful en- treaty for her heart and hand in return. Mary was genuinely interested in Cecil, ' and, in consequence, he was thevery last person in the world she would have suspect it. So she tried to sim-. ulate indifference by aifecting a sort of platonic feeling for him. Such-`a re-. gard. however, did not come up to Dovely s requirements. and when he objected to being side tracked from the main line of love to the siding or sis- terly aifection and demanded a direct . response to his appeal Mary showed an inclination to temporize. ` In brief. she :7 asked him to call upon her a week later. and if. after mature consider- ation. he were of the same mind. she might think the matter over seriously. V. `Doyely protested that his present frame of mind was not the result of -`sudden impulse, but the full blown. ower which she had planted in his -; bosom with the first glance of her eyes clong ago. He vowed that the end, or time would nd his love unaltered and unalterable-all of which he had read 5;} in How to Propose. or Every Man His`. Own Lovemaker." Mary, however, remained rm, and Dovely went bacl to his pills and plasters. it would be .` _" .vain to describe the battles fought her -` .'fween hope and tear.` exultation and bi despair. in the, young drug clerk's brain .;` during that week. He was sustained , ` `fgsomewhat ' by his inordinate vanity, but beneath all lay the suspicion, ever` ' ;;`so taint. perhaps. that Mary had been` 1 laughing at him._ When poor Dovely 4 ,;m_lled `the bell handle of the Barclay? ii house on the appointed nlg_ht._he was` ' rullof nervous uncertainty that his "A ` J "_lv`ed him, withsuch u iiplased look .
