"To-day?" asked Constance.

"What do you mean, to-day? A week ago, you mean."
"No, Mamma didn't see that article last week, but I was afraid about to-day."
"To-day?"
"Yes, to-day's article."
Constance caught Dorine by the arm:
"Is there something in it, to-day?"
"Yes," Dorine whispered, coldly. "Didn't you know?"
