s John, and he had a pigtail five feet long =E2=80=94 all real hair and no =
braided silk, and he kept an hotel by the way and fed us with a chicken, in=
to whose innocent flesh onions and strange vegetables had been forced. Till=
then we had feared Chinamen, especially when they brought food, but now we=
will eat anything at their hands. The conclusion of the meal was a half-gu=
inea pineapple and a siesta. This is a beautiful thing which we of India =
=E2=80=94 but I am of India no more =E2=80=94 do not understand. You lie do=

or the businesslike repose of a Europe morning. Now I begin to despise nove=

means.</p><p>They laughed merrily, each holding the other=E2=80=99s arms, l=

take the former theory therefore for my everyday purposes, and as a matter=
of fact so does everybody else. I regard myself as a free responsible pers=

ng for it to clear away, when he was joined by Mrs Barnett, Madge, and seve=
ral others.</p><p>"Certainly not."</p><p>"He=E2=80=99ll go a=
way. I always knew he=E2=80=99d go away. You must tell Dinny at once what y=

out laughing. "Hee-hee-hee! Thank you, sir, for a sermon as well as a=
sovereign. You have been most kind, indeed!" She changed suddenly fro=
m irony to anger. "I never was called a heathen before! Considering wh=
at I have done for you, I think you might at least have been civil. Good af=
ternoon, sir." She lifted her saucy little snub-nose, and walked with =
dignity out of the room.</p><p>=E2=80=98Well, I hope not. But she seems to =
me to be exactly cut out for an old maid;=E2=80=94 to be Aunt Lucy for ever=
and ever to your bairns.=E2=80=99</p><p>Mrs. Sowler slowly stirred up the =
remains of her grog. "I know no more than you do. Any more questions, =
miss?"</p><p>"Five million."</p><p>"Let them go," =
he said =E2=80=94"let them go, Catharine, those gallants, with their c=
apering horses, their jingling spurs, their plumed bonnets, and their trim =
mustachios: they are not of our class, nor will we aim at pairing with them=
. Tomorrow is St. Valentine=E2=80=99s Day, when every bird chooses her mate=
; but you will not see the linnet pair with the sparrow hawk, nor the Robin=
Redbreast with the kite. My father was an honest burgher of Perth, and cou=
ld use his needle as well as I can. Did there come war to the gates of our =
fair burgh, down went needles, thread, and shamoy leather, and out came the=
good head piece and target from the dark nook, and the long lance from abo=
ve the chimney. Show me a day that either he or I was absent when the provo=
st made his musters! Thus we have led our lives, my girl, working to win ou=
r bread, and fighting to defend it. I will have no son in law that thinks h=
imself better than me; and for these lords and knights, I trust thou wilt a=
lways remember thou art too low to be their lawful love, and too high to be=
their unlawful loon. And now lay by thy work, lass, for it is holytide eve=
, and it becomes us to go to the evening service, and pray that Heaven may =
send thee a good Valentine tomorrow."</p><p>Esther felt too miserable =
for tears to come. She looked helplessly at Felix for a moment, then took h=
er hands from his, and, turning away mutely, walked dreamily towards her fa=
ther, and said, =E2=80=98Father, I am ready =E2=80=94 there is no more to s=
ay.=E2=80=99</p><p>"Albany, this is dreadful!" said the King. &qu=
ot;Would they make a murderer of my boy? would they pretend my David would =
soil his hands in Scottish blood without having either provocation or purpo=
se? No =E2=80=94 no, they will not invent calumnies so broad as these, for =
they are flagrant and incredible."</p><p>=E2=80=98What a nuisance it i=
s to be a slave to the camera!=E2=80=99 said the Professor, upon whom the d=
umb influences of the season were working though he knew it not.</p><p>&quo=
t;Carry this bag for me," said Aileen, and he picked it up and marched=
off.</p><p>CHRISTIAN and Johnson did meet, however, by means that were qui=
te incalculable. The incident which brought them into communication was due=
to Felix Holt, who of all men in the world had the least affinity either f=
or the indusuious or the idle parasite.</p><p>"Whose child?" Jerv=
y asked, noticing the sudden movement.</p><p>He suffered the frightened gir=
l to spring to the ground, and turned his looks from her to bend them conte=
mptuously on the Earl of Douglas, as if he had said, "All this I do in=
despite of you and of your daughter=E2=80=99s claims."</p><p>"Wh=
en," said Jack Muskham, "Yule here was in the Arabian desert, he =
heard a vague yarn among some Bedouins about an Englishman having been held=
up somewhere by Arabs and forced to become a Moslem. He had rather a row w=
ith them, saying no Englishman would do that. But when he was back in Egypt=
he went flying into the Libyan desert, met another lot of Bedouins coming =
from the south, and came on precisely the same yarn, only more detailed, be=
cause they said it happened in Darfur, and they even had the man=E2=80=99s =
name =E2=80=94 Desert. Then, when he was up in Khartoum, Yule found it was =
common talk that young Desert had changed his religion. Naturally he put tw=
o and two together. But there=E2=80=99s all the difference in the world, of=
course, between voluntarily swapping religions and doing it at the pistol=
=E2=80=99s point. An Englishman who does that lets down the lot of us."=
;</p><p>=E2=80=98Hooray! =E2=80=98 said Tommy. =E2=80=98Let=E2=80=99s be of=
f then.=E2=80=99</p><p>In the former contingency, the colonists, shut in by=
ice and surrounded by impassable icebergs, would have no means of communic=
ation with their fellow-creatures, and would die of cold and hunger in the =
solitudes of the north.</p><p>It should be noted here that this proposition=
of Stener=E2=80=99s in regard to city money had no connection with the att=
itude of the principal leaders in local politics in regard to street-railwa=
y control, which was a new and intriguing phase of the city=E2=80=99s finan=
cial life. Many of the leading financiers and financier-politicians were in=
terested in that. For instance, Messrs. Mollenhauer, Butler, and Simpson we=
re interested in street-railways separately on their own account. There was=
no understanding between them on this score. If they had thought at all on=
the matter they would have decided that they did not want any outsider to =
interfere. As a matter of fact the street-railway business in Philadelphia =
was not sufficiently developed at this time to suggest to any one the grand=
scheme of union which came later. Yet in connection with this new arrangem=
ent between Stener and Cowperwood, it was Strobik who now came forward to S=
tener with an idea of his own. All were certain to make money through Cowpe=
rwood =E2=80=94 he and Stener, especially. What was amiss, therefore, with =
himself and Stener and with Cowperwood as their =E2=80=94 or rather Stener=
=E2=80=99s secret representative, since Strobik did not dare to appear in t=
he matter =E2=80=94 buying now sufficient street-railway shares in some one=
line to control it, and then, if he, Strobik, could, by efforts of his own=
, get the city council to set aside certain streets for its extension, why,=
there you were =E2=80=94 they would own it. Only, later, he proposed to sh=
ake Stener out if he could. But this preliminary work had to be done by som=
e one, and it might as well be Stener. At the same time, as he saw, this wo=
rk had to be done very carefully, because naturally his superiors were watc=
hful, and if they found him dabbling in affairs of this kind to his own adv=
antage, they might make it impossible for him to continue politically in a =
position where he could help himself just the same. Any outside organizatio=
n such as a street-railway company already in existence had a right to appe=
al to the city council for privileges which would naturally further its and=
the city=E2=80=99s growth, and, other things being equal, these could not =
be refused. It would not do for him to appear, however, both as a sharehold=
er and president of the council. But with Cowperwood acting privately for S=
tener it would be another thing.</p><p>Cowperwood stared at him in return f=
or a few moments with a cold, fishy eye. He knew a great deal about human n=
ature, and he was ready for and expectant of any queer shift in an individu=
al=E2=80=99s attitude, particularly in time of panic; but this shift of Ste=
ner=E2=80=99s was quite too much. "Whom else have you been talking to,=
George, since I saw you? Whom have you seen? What did Sengstack have to sa=
y?"</p><p>She went out herself to post it. On the way back she came on=
Kit, with his governess, the dog, and the two youngest of her Aunt Alison=
=E2=80=99s children. They seemed entirely happy; she was ashamed not to see=
m so too, so they all went together to Kit=E2=80=99s schoolroom to have tea=
. Before it was over Michael came in. Dinny, who had seldom seen him with h=
is little son, was fascinated by the easy excellence of their relationship.=
It was, perhaps, a little difficult to tell which was the elder, though a =
certain difference in size and the refusal of a second helping of strawberr=
y jam seemed to favour Michael. That hour, in fact, brought her the nearest=
approach to happiness she had known since she left Wilfrid five days ago. =
After it was over she went with Michael to his study.</p><p>My idea of the =
unknown scheme is of something so wide and deep that I cannot conceive it e=
ncumbered by my egotism perpetually. I shall serve my purpose and pass unde=
r the wheel and end. That distresses me not at all. Immortality would distr=
ess and perplex me. If I may put this in a mixture of theological and socia=
l language, I cannot respect, I cannot believe in a God who is always going=
about with me.</p><p>"That may be your experience of them," Ward=
our answered; "mine is different. All the devotion, the patience, the =
humility, the worship that there is in man, I laid at the feet of a woman. =
She accepted the offering as women do =E2=80=94 accepted it, easily, gracef=
ully, unfeelingly =E2=80=94 accepted it as a matter of course. I left Engla=
nd to win a high place in my profession, before I dared to win her. I brave=
d danger, and faced death. I staked my life in the fever swamps of Africa, =
to gain the promotion that I only desired for her sake =E2=80=94 and gained=
it. I came back to give her all, and to ask nothing in return, but to rest=
my weary heart in the sunshine of her smile. And her own lips =E2=80=94 th=
e lips I had kissed at parting =E2=80=94 told me that another man had robbe=
d me of her. I spoke but few words when I heard that confession, and left h=
er forever. =E2=80=98The time may come,=E2=80=99 I told her, =E2=80=98when =
I shall forgive you. But the man who has robbed me of you shall rue the day=
when you and he first met.=E2=80=99 Don=E2=80=99t ask me who he was! I hav=
e yet to discover him. The treachery had been kept secret; nobody could tel=
l me where to find him; nobody could tell me who he was. What did it matter=
? When I had lived out the first agony, I could rely on myself =E2=80=94 I =
could be patient, and bide my time."</p><p>=E2=80=98He was coming here=
himself,=E2=80=99 said she, =E2=80=98but I advised him not to do so.=E2=80=
=99</p><p>"Just what do you mean?" asked the Senator, looking at =
Butler interestedly. He knew nothing of the sixty-thousand-dollar check tra=
nsaction. He had not followed the local treasury dealings very closely, nor=
had he talked to either of his confreres since the original conference bet=
ween them. "There haven=E2=80=99t been any outside parties mixed up wi=
th this, have there?" His own shrewd, political mind was working.</p><=
p>Some people are manifestly and essentially base and self-seeking and rega=
rdless of the happiness and welfare of their fellows, some in business affa=
irs and politics as others in love. Some wrong-doers again are evidently so=
through heedlessness, through weakness, timidity or haste. We have to judg=
e and deal with each sort upon no clear issue, but upon impressions they ha=
ve given us of their spirit and purpose. We owe it to them and ourselves no=
t to judge too rashly or too harshly, but for all that we are obliged to ju=
dge and take sides, to avoid the malignant and exclude them from further op=
portunity, to help and champion the cheated and the betrayed, to forgive an=
d aid the repentant blunderer and by mercy to save the lesser sinner from d=
esperate alliance with the greater. That is the broad rule, and it is as mu=
ch as we have to go upon until the individual case comes before us.</p><p>T=
he chart of the Arctic seas was then brought, and Hobson pointed out the po=
sition occupied by the island =E2=80=94 six hundred miles from all land.</p=
><p>With these reflections, the puissant Oliver walked swiftly, yet with as=
little noise as possible, towards the wynd in which the smith, as our read=
ers are aware, had his habitation. But his evil fortune had not ceased to p=
ursue him. As he turned into the High, or principal, Street, he heard a bur=
st of music very near him, followed by a loud shout.</p><p>"H=E2=80=99=
m!" said Grice. "He bites."</p><p>The children born of the m=
arriage, two in number, were both daughters. The elder had mortally offende=
d her father by marrying imprudently =E2=80=94 in a pecuniary sense. He had=
declared that she should never enter his house again; and he had merciless=
ly kept his word. The younger daughter (now eighteen years of age) proved t=
o be also a source of parental inquietude, in another way. She was the pass=
ive cause of the revolt which set her father=E2=80=99s authority at defianc=
e. For some little time past she had been out of health. After many ineffec=
tual trials of the mild influence of persuasion, her mother=E2=80=99s patie=
nce at last gave way. Mrs. Ronald insisted =E2=80=94 yes, actually insisted=
=E2=80=94 on taking Miss Emma to the seaside.</p><p>During the twenty minu=
tes Michael took to read the poem, there was not a sound, except from the s=
heets being turned. Michael put them down at last.</p><p>"You haven=E2=
=80=99t got yellow fever, have you, sir?"</p><p></p><p>"Well, we=
=E2=80=99ll not talk any more about it now, daughter," he said, wearil=
y. "Ye=E2=80=99ve been so much to me during all these years that I can=
scarcely belave anythin=E2=80=99 wrong of ye. I don=E2=80=99t want to, God=
knows. Ye=E2=80=99re a grown woman, though, now; and if ye are doin=E2=80=
=99 anythin=E2=80=99 wrong I don=E2=80=99t suppose I could do so much to st=
op ye. I might turn ye out, of course, as many a father would; but I wouldn=
=E2=80=99t like to do anythin=E2=80=99 like that. But if ye are doin=E2=80=
=99 anythin=E2=80=99 wrong"=E2=80=94 and he put up his hand to stop a =
proposed protest on the part of Aileen =E2=80=94"remember, I=E2=80=99m=
certain to find it out in the long run, and Philadelphy won=E2=80=99t be b=
ig enough to hold me and the man that=E2=80=99s done this thing to me. I=E2=
=80=99ll get him," he said, getting up dramatically. "I=E2=80=99l=
l get him, and when I do =E2=80=94" He turned a livid face to the wall=
, and Aileen saw clearly that Cowperwood, in addition to any other troubles=
which might beset him, had her father to deal with. Was this why Frank had=
looked so sternly at her the night before?</p><p>"Well, Foch," s=
he said, "what shall we do? Nice walk?"</p><p>=E2=80=98Now!=E2=80=
=99 thought Wilfrid.</p><p>As to the town in which Felix Holt now resides, =
I will keep that a secret, lest he should be troubled by any visitor having=
the insufferable motive of curiosity.</p><p>Tommy obeyed automatically, fo=
r he was now carried away by the rare opportunity of talking to a new liste=
ner, and was only eager to go on with his story. As soon as his back was tu=
rned, and he was stooping over his paste-pot, Christian, with quick adroitn=
ess, exchanged the placards in his own bag for those in Tommys basket. Chri=
stian=E2=80=99s placards had not been printed at Treby, but were a new lot =
which had been sent from Duffield that very day =E2=80=94 =E2=80=98highly s=
piced=E2=80=99, Quorlen had said, =E2=80=98coming from a pen that was up to=
that sort of thing=E2=80=99. Christian had read the first of the sheaf, an=
d supposed they were all alike. He proceeded to hand one to Tommy, and said=
=E2=80=94</p><p>In my "Modern Utopia" I turned this idea of an o=
rganized brotherhood about very thoroughly and looked at it from this point=
and that; I let it loose as it were, and gave it its fullest development, =
and so produced a sort of secular Order of governing men and women. In a sp=
irit entirely journalistic I called this the Order of the Samurai, for at t=
he time I wrote there was much interest in Bushido because of the capacity =
for hardship and self-sacrifice this chivalrous culture appears to have dev=
eloped in the Japanese. These Samurai of mine were a sort of voluntary nobi=
lity who supplied the administrative and organizing forces that held my Uto=
pian world together. They were the "New Republicans" of my "=
Anticipations" and "Mankind in the Making," much developed a=
nd supposed triumphant and ruling the world.</p></font></p>
