CHAPTER V.
“Now, Ruth,” said Mr. Fel-
lowes, when he ha<f finished and
dispatched his note, and, light
ing a cigarette, settled himself
in his arm-chair opposite to her,
“•I’ll yield you up all I know.
It was the queerest interview
I ever had with that queer pair.
—You needn’t wriggle with an
ticipation, my dear, no human
creature could reproduce the
scene with any justice to him
self or to his subject. Waring
had-most palpably put on for
the occasion a brisk man of-the
world air that was superb, but
his wife seemed dreamier than
ever, and limper, and her hat
looked rather askew.”
“It always does, but do go
on.”
“Directly you give me a
chance, dear. Waring opened
the campaign with a little small
talk as he always does, but it
was quite off-hand and reckless
to-day. He had hardly set his
gentle tap fairly flowing, how
ever, when his wife suddenly
woke up and chipped in with
phenomenal clearness and pre
cision:
“ ‘Dear Henry, suppose we
state the object of our call, we
can converse afterwards.’
“Then it all came out. First
one stated a fact or a theory,
then the other had his innings.
It was hard enough to follow
the two and to watch them at
the same time; one never likes
to miss the moment when they
clasp hands again and the little
looks they cast on each other in
the process. It appears the
pair meditate a definite experi
ment on those wretched chil
dren, and want my help in se
curing a bear-leader for the
task.”
•‘Good gracious!” gasped Mrs.
Fellowes. “Go on!” she com
manded grimly, “what is it?”
“On no account whatever is
either to be sent school or al
lowed to hold intercourse with
other children; no woman is to
have any hand in their tuition:
naturally cricket, football, and
every other boyish sport is to
be carefully excluded from the
'curriculum, and all Christian
teaching is to be utterly taboo
ed.”
“Mercy on us!”
“The facts of the Old Testa
ment are to be imparted to
them with other ancient history
and they are to be well-instruct
ed in the natural sciences. By
these means they will learn to
know Godin His Works—with
capital ‘W’—Mrs. Waring ob
served this solemnly to her hus
band for my benefit. ‘Exactly,
my darling,’ he replied, with a
most surprising alacrity—they
had rehearsed this point, those
two babies.—When the children
are launched into their teens
and have presumably arrived at
an age of more or less discre
tion, the Bible and any other
existent evidences of Christian
ity obtainable, are to be formal
ly presented to them. The imps
may then receive or reject them
according to their particular
turn of mind, but in no case are
they to be biased.”
• The parents have seemingly
occupied themselves a good
deal with this part of the exper
iment and regard this presenta
tion of a choice of beliefs as a
sort of function on which they
mean to take exhaustive obser
vation.”
The rector paused to roll
another cigarette; when he had
finished and lighted it, he went
on.
“Ruth, you are an intelligent
woman and won’t misjudge me
when I say, that this experi
ment in itself seems to be a rea
sonable one.
‘•‘This Bible reading question
Is an awful one,” he went on
musing aloud, “we all have
had, every decent English man,
woman, and child of us has had
the Bible religiously drilled into
him from the time of conscious
ness till whatever time he can
manage to read it for himself,
then he is exhorted to carry on
the exercise independently, and
a good percentage of people do;
you’d be astonished »t the num
ber of people who never miss
reading their Bible every day of
their lives, and perhaps more
astonished still if you were to
know the amazingly small ef
fect it has on the lives of these
people. Even from an intellec
tual point of view, it is incredi
ble to me, how little the aver
age human being has grasped
the heritage he posesses in this
book.
“I was speaking to a girl the
other day—by far the most in
telligent one I know in these
. regions—she yvas talking to me
with perfect unrestraint and
frankness about all sorts of
things. She told me she could
see no beauty whatsoever in the
Bible, and that she had never
been able to derive an atom of
encouragement or assurance
from anything in it. If it did
pot bore, it upset her, and made
belief harder. It had become a
mere patter to her by vile read
ing and intonation, and the re
markable turns of thought given
to it by many minds insulted
her reason. Even the poetry of
the diction had been spoiled for
her and seemed, she said, to reek
of half-fledged curates. Under
some conditions this experiment
of the Warings might prove a
success.”
“Oh, but with that moth
er'”
“Ah, yes, that alters the
whole aspect ot affairs! If you
could only have heard the pas
sionless, analytical style in
which Waring and his wife dis
cussed the matter and specula
ted on the issue, which they
think will be more typical in
Gwen than in Dacre, his brute
strength being, in their opinion,
his strong point, and his theo
logical side hardly worth consid
ering. They throw it in, how
ever, ‘careless like’ as, if the
experiment is to be tried, it is
just as easy to try it on two as
on one.”
“Mercy on us,” again said
Mrs. Fellowes, clattering the
fire irons viciously.
“By the way, Waring amused
me intensely by one revelation
he made, he could hardly get it
out, and I saw him fling a pa
thetically-deprecating glance at
his wife and give her hand a
squeeze before he began. He
felt he had to account for the
luckless Dacre’s streugth of
legs, of which he seems to have
as poor an opinion as the Psal
mist, he feared that I might fall
into the error of casting the
blame on him or his wife, so he
determined I should know the
real cause. ‘You will hardly
believe me,’ he observed, ‘when
I tell you that my wife with her
refined intellectuality is the out
come of long generations of sol
diers and of—ahem,— famous
duellists, and I fear our son,
Dacre, is a very clearly-defined
specimen o f throwing-back.’
Poor Mrs. Waring! she felt her
ancestry keenly and got as red
as a rose during the confes
sion.”
“Goodness gracious me! What
a woman! what a pair! What
in the name of goodness brought
the two together and mada them
marry each other and produce
children. If I were Providence
and had that on my mind, I’d
never look up again.”
“My dear child!”
“John, in the present state of
my feelings, brought on by you
yourself recollect, you must for
get your sacerdotal character
and only remember my state of
original sin. Why should two
beautiful children’s lives be
spoiled for the vagaries of a pair
who never had any right to bear
children? Think of Gwen’s sad
old face full of the trouble of all
ages, think of her naughtiness
with that horrible unique sort
of infernal touch about it; that
painting herself blue is the most
childish escapade I remember.”
“I was at Mrs. Doyle's yester
day and she was telling me a
lot about Mrs. Waring before
we came. After Dacre’s birth,
she sa ; d it was absolutely ghast
ly to see her with t^e child, she
was terrified to hold it, and
trembled like a leaf whenever
she absolutely had to. Poor
Mrs. Doyle, she got quite irri
tated and excited about one
thing; it seems she could not
nurse her own children at all,
and that Mrs. Waring was a
capital mother from that point
of view, and Mrs. Doyle seem
ingly could not see at all why
an unnatural little bundle of
scientific data should score off
her, a good, wholesome creature,
made for a mother, in this man
ner.”
“It was certainly too bad,
and one would never have ex
pected it of Mrs. Waring,” said
the rector laughing.
“Oh, and whenever Mary
brought either of the babies to
her or she met them in
the corridors or about the
grounds, Mrs. Doyle says her
one request was that Mary
should take- the creature away
and give it food, it looked faint!
They were both huge, flourish
ing, healthy babies, I hear.”
“Ruth,” said Mr. Fellowes
suddenly, “I wish those people
would keep away from church.”
“You are shedding your sa
cerdotal character with a ven
geance. What do you mean?”
“You have no idea how they
distract me, sitting there togeth
er with their eyes far away and
their ears sealed, except at the
odd times they give those spas
modic simultaneous starts, and
twist their thoughts back for
the minute to what’sgoipgon.”
“But, John, for the sake of
the parish—”
“If the pqrish can't l»fep up
to its ordinary pretty low water
mark without this prick to its
piety, it must be in a poor state,
and even more of a discredit to
me than I imagine. They are
far too good to be asked to play
this weekly farce for the parish’s
sake. It was Hopkins, not I,
who insisted upon this church
going, and of course they gave
in in their gracious simple way;
and now, not even a water
spout would stop them from
coming, they are so concerned
for my feelings. What a pair
of unconscious Christians they
are to be sure! One sees it crop
ping up in all directions.”
“I wish it would appear any
way in the management of their
children, I don’t see many trac
es of it there. When is this
wretched experiment to be set
going?” asked Mrs. Fellowes.
“As soon as I can procure a
suitable person to conduct it. I
think I know a fellow who
might do.”
“What business have they
with children, those two?” cried
Mrs. Fellowes with a little
spasm of pain twisting about
her mouth. “I don’t believe
those children ever got properly
hugged in all their lives by that
inhuman little mother of theirs.
And oh, Gwen’s dress! That is
awful!”
“Ah, yes, that makes the whole
affair very much sadder! Don’t
you think dinner is ready? Yes,
those children have a great deal
to fight against, it isn’t their
ancestors alone that will handi
cap them, poor little beggars.”
“Cartloads of saints for an
cestors wouldn’t be worth a rap
to them with an eerie little
creature like that for a
mother,” said Mrs. Fellowes
hotly, in the pretty lazy drawl
into which her touch of twang
had developed itself. “I pity
that wretched coming tutor.”
She let her skirts drop and
gave them a dexterous kick as
she went out, to give them the
correct “hang.”
CHAPTER VI.
There was no time lost in set
ting the experiment going, and
it was soon in full swing. Its
birth pangs were awful, and
embraced in their throes a great
number of persons. The par
ents’ sufferings were so complex
and so quite peculiar to them
selves that it is impossible to
expound them to an unsympath
izing public.
The tortures that couple en
dured the first months after the
initial stage of intellectual de
velopment had been instituted
and was being dealt with, were
severe, but they were in no wise
connected with their children’s
anguish at the sudden and un
expected onslaught on ' their
higher parts.
Their misery arose from the
jarring and inconveniently close
contact with tutors, whom, in
their unconscious Christian
way, they found it their duty
to admit for some part of every
day into the edge of their lives.
This was a terrible discipline,
more especially as during these
times the unhappy instructors
also thought it their duty to
ease off their slough of learning
and to expand their social parts,
and thus the manufacture of
small talk became a daily neces
sity in the lives of the distract
ed pair.
They had both taken infinite
pains to provide sdent enter
tainment for their guest—or
rather succession of guests—in
the tutoring line. The stand
ard scientists were first tried,
and these seeming to have but
little effect, a whole cartload of
mixed literature, including all
the rag tag and bobtail of fiction
the bookseller wanted to get off
his hands, was imported and
spread about enticingly; theo
logy and ethics were also given
a show, till at last all the tables
at one side of the room were
spotted with slate, yellow, and
dull blues and browns, and
every form of journal from the
Times to the Police News was
scattered broadcast over the
place, all with a view to lay
hold on the tutorial mind and
keep it independent of its enter
tainers.
Directly the tutor for the time
being, entered at his appointed
hour, they rose simultaneously
from their work, as if the same
spring moved them, hurried to
ward him with outstretched
hands, Sat down side by side
facing him, and broke into con
versation, which if gaspy, and
at times inconsequent, from the
sudden upheaval of waves of
thought in one or other of them,
was kept up with gallant relent
lessness till the period of deten
tion was at an end.
As soon as the clock announ
ced this event, they broke off
suddenly with a click, and the
tutor was, so to speak, shot out.
and the rent he liad made in
the lives of his entertainers was
patched up as well as might b6
for that day.
But during the entire first
course of those tutors, Mr. and
Mrs. Waring felt always as if
they were suffering from ragged
edges
As for Gwen and Dacre, their
first taste of reclamation from
the savage state, was bitter,
sudden, and condign. Civilis
ation seems the last thing in Ihe
world capable of soothing the
savage breast, especially if the
savage who owns it is young
and In rude health.
Then Mary suffered. It was a
hard blow to find her fledgelings
torn from her in one fell stroke,
and only allowed to return at
odd moments for repairs to skin
and clothes.
Poor Mrs. Fellowes fretted
herself into a regular feverish
attack.
As for the tutors themselves,
the less said of their sufferings
the better. Three succumbed
to them in four months.
The one that followed, a most
excellent person and cut out for
a family man, broke off his en
gagement for fear of conse
quences, his slight substratum
of scientific knowledge having
got so much stirred up while at
Waring Park, that he grew be
wildered.
If such results as he had to
deal with, he reflected, were to
be seen in the green tree what
might not come to pass in the
dry? And he was well aware
of the cloudy ancestry of his
lady-love, and on his own side
had not very much to boast of.
It was unfortunate. But it cer
tainly did seem sacrilegious im
pertinence in him to attempt
what his betters had so egreg-
iously failed in.
