burning river of lava coming toward you？〃 asked Mary Nestor； when the
young inventor called on her later and told her some of his adventures。 〃I

pleasant company； we will take leave of him for a while； knowing that。
sooner or later； he will be seeking new adventures as exciting as those of
the past。
