bet you made last Christmas morning； when will it please you to resign
your authority？〃
〃Oh； bother the bet；〃 says this unscrupulous person。
〃But what do you mean？〃 says Charlie。
〃Why；〃 I say to him； 〃she laid a wager last Christmas Day that you
would not be married within a year。 And now you say you mean to bring
Franziska over on the 4th of December next。 Isn't it so？〃
〃Oh； no！〃 he says； 〃we don't get married till the spring。〃
You should have heard the burst of low； delightful laughter with which
Queen Tita welcomed this announcement。 She had won her wager。
