Excerpt from John Rutland's Romance
I hope to goodness she won't be disappointed in me, said John Rutland to himself, as, with a degree Of intensity and concern excusable only in one so young, he made a final survey Of his reflection in the mirror. The result was a slight readjust ment Of his tie-pin and the removal Of a microscopi cal speck Of dust from his coat-collar. This achieved, his expression seemed to imply though more from a hint Of resignation than Of self-satis faction that nothing further could be done to render his appearance as immaculate as the occa sion demanded.
He had picked up his hat and gloves and a some what sportive - looking cane, when he paused for a moment to gaze with Obvious rapture at the photo graph Of a young lady in a silver-mounted frame that stood upon the mantel-piece.
