Gladys and Jack
Gladys and Jack are sister and brother, and, up to the point when the story opens, they have been the best of friends. Then, however, Gladys puts on a superior air, and adopts a severely proper attitude towards Jack. She goes to spend a holiday up-country, and here, too, her icily-regular line of conduct seems bound to bring her into conflict with her free-and-easy-going cousins. After some trying experiences, Gladys finds herself in a position which enables her, for the time being, to forget her own troubles, and exert all her strength on behalf of the rest. She comes worthily through the ordeal and earns the affection of her cousins, and Jack rejoices in the recovery of a lost sister.
