She left the room as the Earl en-
tered it. He was in unusually high

lighted him, and without noticing his
sons excitement he said: =
''The Commons have taken things
in their own hands. George. I said
they would. They listen to the king
and the Lords very respectfully, and
then obey themselves. Most of the
men in the Lower House are unfit to
enter it,"
well. sir, the Lords as a rule send
them there-you have sent three of
them yourself. But the government

more sense. What does Annie say"
Annie is an angel. I walk far be-
