How Friends Are Lost,


When the professor met one of his
oldest and most intimate friends the
day after the lecture he naturally ex-
pected some comments on the previ-
Gus evenings remarks. Many other
topics were freely discussed. Finally
the lecturer grew uneasy and re-
marked:
II was pleased to see you at the hall
last night"
Yes, was there"
Fine audience"
Eyes; very nice crowd"
II always like to see my near
friends about me when l lecture" the
professor resumed timidly. Persons

will sympa- or rather, who-eh
What did you say?"
IT didn't say anything"
"Oh, l beg your pardon! 1 thought
you did"
mo. Fine day"
Turning colder, fancy. Well. I
must be moving. Good-day."
And the lecturer, as he thoughtfully
pursued his way, discovered, to his
surprise, that he hated, with a large,
tormenting hatred, the man from
whom he had just parted and for
whom he had hitherto entertained the
warmest esteem and affection.-New
