“You wouldn’t see anything more of your friends, then.”
“Ah, yes; Miss Rasmith. She is a great talker, Did you find her interesting?”
“She was very interesting.”
“Yes? What did she talk about?”
Ellen realized the fact too late to withhold “Why, about you.”
“And was that what made her interesting?”
“Now, what would Lottie say to such a thing as that?” asked Ellen, gayly.
“Something terribly cutting, I’m afraid. But don’t you! From you I don’t want to believe I deserve it, no matter what Miss Rasmith said me.”
“Oh, she didn’t say anything very bad. Unless you mind being a universal favorite.”
