What
do
you
feel
about
it
,
Charley
?
"
Then
,
surprised
at
her
husband
's
silence
,
she
raised
her
eyes
,
opened
wide
,
as
pretty
as
pale
flowers
.
He
had
done
with
the
spurs
,
and
,
twisting
his
moustache
with
both
hands
,
horizontally
,
he
contemplated
her
from
the
height
of
his
long
legs
with
a
visible
appreciation
of
her
appearance
.
The
consciousness
of
being
thus
contemplated
pleased
Mrs.
Gould
.
"
They
are
considerable
men
,
"
he
said
.
"
I
know
.
But
have
you
listened
to
their
conversation
?
They
do
n't
seem
to
have
understood
anything
they
have
seen
here
.
"
"
They
have
seen
the
mine
.
They
have
understood
that
to
some
purpose
,
"
Charles
Gould
interjected
,
in
defence
of
the
visitors
;
and
then
his
wife
mentioned
the
name
of
the
most
considerable
of
the
three
.
He
was
considerable
in
finance
and
in
industry
.
His
name
was
familiar
to
many
millions
of
people
.
He
was
so
considerable
that
he
would
never
have
travelled
so
far
away
from
the
centre
of
his
activity
if
the
doctors
had
not
insisted
,
with
veiled
menaces
,
on
his
taking
a
long
holiday
.
"
Mr.
Holroyd
's
sense
of
religion
,
"
Mrs.
Gould
pursued
,
"
was
shocked
and
disgusted
at
the
tawdriness
of
the
dressed-up
saints
in
the
cathedral
--
the
worship
,
he
called
it
,
of
wood
and
tinsel
.
But
it
seemed
to
me
that
he
looked
upon
his
own
God
as
a
sort
of
influential
partner
,
who
gets
his
share
of
profits
in
the
endowment
of
churches
.
That
's
a
sort
of
idolatry
.
He
told
me
he
endowed
churches
every
year
,
Charley
.
"
"
No
end
of
them
,
"
said
Mr.
Gould
,
marvelling
inwardly
at
the
mobility
of
her
physiognomy
.
"
All
over
the
country
.
He
's
famous
for
that
sort
of
munificence
.
"
"
Oh
,
he
did
n't
boast
,
"
Mrs.
Gould
declared
,
scrupulously
.
"
I
believe
he
's
really
a
good
man
,
but
so
stupid
!
A
poor
Chulo
who
offers
a
little
silver
arm
or
leg
to
thank
his
god
for
a
cure
is
as
rational
and
more
touching
.
"
"
He
's
at
the
head
of
immense
silver
and
iron
interests
,
"
Charles
Gould
observed
.
