To have his picture displayed like that, think how it will help M.Dubois!" Mrs.De Peyster gave Olivetta a sharp look, as though she questioned the entire disinterestedness of this argument; then she considered an instant; and in the main it was her human instinct to help a struggling fellow being that dictated her decision.
"Matilda, you may give the man a photograph of the picture.

And as I treat the papers without discrimination, you may give photographs to all the reporters who wish them.

But on the understanding that M.
Dubois is to have conspicuous credit." "Very well, ma'am." "And send all of them away." "I'll do what I can, ma'am." And Matilda went out.
"What time does the Plutonia sail ?" inquired Olivetta, with the haste of one who is trying to get off of very thin ice.
"At one to-night.

Matilda will get me a bit of dinner and I shall go aboard right after it." "How many times does this make that you've been over ?" "I do not know," Mrs.De Peyster answered carelessly.

"Thirty or forty, I dare say." Olivetta's face was wistful with unenvious envy.
