The Heir Presumptive And The Heir Apparent Vol 3 Of 3 Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Heir Presumptive, Vol. 2 of 2: A Love Story And she is resolved that Gladys shall not be ashamed of her old home. So the balconies and windows teem with scented blossoms and glossy leaves, and the house has been fitted with new aesthetic blinds, and the lace curtains are from the most expensive foreign looms. The guest cham bers have been refurnished also and made fit for the reception of so great a personage, and the ser vants have been ordered to assume their new liveries. It is amusing sometimes to watch the sudden dignity gained in the family circle by an accession of rank or riches. Gladys, who but two short years ago was in the schoolroom, and scolded by her mother if she wore her best dresses upon ordinary occasions, who slept in one of the smallest apart ments of the house, and was highly delighted when her father sent her a couple of sovereigns for a birthday present, nothing is too good now for Gladys, for whom at that period anything was good enough.
