Speaker Reed has performed well the
difficult task of making up the com.
mittees OF the House. He has consulted
more the public interests than the am
bition Of aspirants. He has selected the
very best material for the most impor-
tant work, Just as a business man does
in the management OF his own affairs.
The composition of the committees
shows more than ordinarily successful
effort to give to every part of the country
due consideration. Democrats have
been fairly treated-much more so than
Republicans were by Mr.. Reeds prcdc-
cessor.
Since the real work Of the House is
done orleit undonO> by its committees,
the country may congratulate itself on
the first showing OF the new Speakers
hand.

the bright light of the moon when the rest Of
the household were in bed.
But when Mr.. Leyton arrived at his own
house he found visitor awaiting his arrival,
who for the timeput all thought of Madeline
out of his head.
s'Bless my life, Osborne, Is 1t you?" he
cried, with q touch of schoolboy manner in
the cordiality of his greeting. 81 am
awfully glad to see you. You have come to
make good long stay, Of course"
.'Only till Monday" Osborne replied;
"The fact is have sold my practice, and
offered my services to the Government.
leave for the Crimea next week"
There was tinge of sadness in Osborne's
tone as he spoke, and Mr.. Leyton, scanning
his friends face closely, could see that his
to control. It was clearly impossible, he
thought, to ride over to the Red House
farm tonight. The projected interview
must stand over till more convenient op-
portunity. Mr.. Leyton at once counter
manded the order he had given to have his
horse saddled, and made arrangements for
the comfort of his guest.
There was no man for whom Mr.. Leyton
entertained SO warm a regard as for George
Osborne, and the impending departure OF
his friend for the East, while it added new
cordiality to the welcome he extended to
him, filled his mind with strange and unac-
countable forebodings. For, though it is
not in the nature of youth to take gloomy
outlook upon the future, Leyton knew that
it was among the contingencies of GLORIOUS
war" that he might never look on the face
of his friend again.
After supper was dispatched, and the two
men had lighted their pipes, and were
snugly ensconced before the brightly burn
ing fire, Osborne broached the errand which
had brought him down to Chelderton.
"You know, Legion, he said, '.that the
and my little Emily, who is now sweet,
bonnie little thing of g. may return all

all in a minute, to the tune of quite q
thousand pounds, and Englefeld's honor his
checks, why you see it is as simple as the
multiplication table. People will talk"
"But Mr.. Robson does not bank with
Englefeld's," exclaimed Mr.. Leyton. con-
temptously. she banks with Mattheson's. %
did bank with Matthesons, you mean" %
said Mr.. Pringle. "But he has been paying
his bills to-day with checks on Englefelds.
He has paid thousand pounds to-day to
gentlemen present in this room. How much
more he has paid no one knows"
"Am to understand, Mr.. Meekln, said
Mr.. Peyton, "that Mr.. Robson is no longer
indebted to your"
Neither to me nor anyone else in Chel-
derton that am aware Of"
''Then he has paid everything3" said Mr..
Leyton, unable to suppress his astonish-
ment
''That is 30, and with checks on Engle-
fields"
Mr.. Leyton was fairly nonplussed. he
was not ignorant of Mr.. Robson's embar-
rassments, seeing that on several occasions
he had lent him money to meet his weekly
wage bill, which sums were still owing. He
knew of no way by which Mr.. Robson
could have satisfied the claims of his cred
itors, and the more he pondered upon the
problem the more puzzled he became. The
transfer of Mr.. Robson's account from
,Mattheson's bank to Englefeld's added to
the mystery. What could it all mean?
People will talk, as Mr.. Pringle had OBJ
served, and the young veterinary was much
too shrewd not to perceive that Martin
Robson's apparent accession to something
like fortune had supplied the gossips Of
Chelderton with choice morsel. Once the
news got abroad that Mr.. Robson had liqui-
dated all claims, paying with checks on
Englefeld's, and the local busybodies would
not be slow to jump to the conclusion that
the banker had become enamored of Miss
Robson's beauty and was about to
marry her. And rack his brains as he

The enyious, whose howls are always

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett is affected.
1t is quite true that she has her oddities.
A lady here in Boston tells of an occasion
when she CHANGED to occupy rooms at a
hotel-it was several years ago-immedlate-
ly adjoining others tenanted by Mrs. Burnett
and her family. She had scarcely taken
possession of her apartment when she heard
a scampering of small feet through the
partition wall, and then came a child's CRY
of "Mamma-MammaP
Whereupon ensued series of audible
slaps and squeals, and finally a woman's
