Heir table like a stout, presiding goddess, guiding them gently
to the best dishes on the menu, and

occasionally putting aside their
own selection with a hasty, "Mon-non; you vill not like that one

to-day." She patted Cecilia in a motherly fashion
at parting, and their bill was

only about half what it should have been. They found a musical comedy,
and laughed their way through it--Billy and Harrison had apparently no
cares in the world, and Bob and Cecilia
were caught up in the whirl of their high spirits, so that anything
became

a huge joke. The evening flew by on
airy wings, when Billy insisted on taking them to supper
after the theatre. Cecilia allowed
herself a fleeting vision of Mrs. Rainham, and then, deciding that she
might as well be hanged for

a sheep as a lamb, followed gaily. And supper was so cheery a meal
that

she forgot all about time--until, just at the end, she caught sight of
the

restaurant clock. "Half-past eleven! Oh, Bobby!" "Well, if it is--you
poor little old Cinderella," said Bob. But he hurried her away,
for all that, amid a chorus of farewells and

efforts, on the part of Billy and Harrison, to arrange further
meetings. They ran to the nearest tube
station, and dived into its depths; and, after being whisked
underground

for a few minutes, emerged into the cool night. Cecilia slipped
her arm through her brother's as they hurried

along the empty street.
"Now, you keep
your nose in the air," Bobby told her. "You aren't exactly a kid now,
and she can't really do anything to you. Oh,
by Jove--I was thinking, in the theatre, she might interfere with our
letters." "She's quite equal to it," said Cecilia. "Just what she'd
revel in doing. Well,
you can easily find out. I'll write to you to-morrow, and again the
next day--just ordinary letters, with nothing particular in them
except an arrangement to meet next Saturday.
