A MOST UNBUSINESSLIKE
PROCEEDING-.
A. STORY IN TWO CHAPTERS. •
ClIAPTER I. -CONTINUED.
"On the other hand, I find my opin
ion that they are more amenable to
direction and authority confirmed. In
Onsed, I find it hard, almost impossible
to rebtike then. They are so humble
and so penitent."
And so pretty -did you add, Henry
Assuredly the thought entered your
mind, if it rose not to your lips.
"There is, at least one good point
bout them, and that is that they are
il
1 Ot so eager to get home at night. On
th e whole, as far aspersonal intercourse
is concerned, they are much pleasanter
to deal with, being quicker and brighter
in many ways. The other drawbacks
connected with them cannot, I suppose,
be laid to their charge, and are no
doubt unavoidable. Well, well, Joseph,
we must take the good and bad together
and the balance will, after all, be in our
favor. Three hundred and ten pounds
is not to be despised, aud a little traira
ing may make them all that we could
desire."
CRAPTER ii.
The winter nights were drawing
swiftly in, and it became necessary to
light the gas loag before the -,:offices
closed. Now it was a singular thing
bliat there existed a strange reluctance,
in the office of Middleton Brothers to
comply with this necessity. Matches
became mysteriously scarce, and a ca-
pacity for working in coraparative dark-
ness developed itself with surprising
swiftness. This along with many other
little annoyances, some of whichhave
been previously mentioned, chafed the 1
soul of Henry Middleton almost beyond I
endurance. He became like a sim-
mering volcano; an "eruption might at I
any moment beexpected. For a long,
time he remained in the simnaering
state, but at length the erruption came.
Quietly ascending the stairs on a dusky
evening, he entered the office. The gas
was unlit, and, pausing in the shadow :
of the door, he beheld by the dim light i'
a strange scene.
Miss Vernon and -alr. Johnson were I
' 1
standing by the window close together
very close together, gazing out on the 1
crescent moon that was slowly sur- I
mounting the house tops. Miss War-
wick was bending over a desk in the
shadiest corner of the roam, and Mr.
Harley was bending over her, talking in
a low voice. Miss Smith was holding
forth volubly to the warehouseman, I
and Miss Ramsay was waltzing over the i
floor with the office boy.
A moment's amazed contexnplation of 1
the ecene,and then sharp and stern rang 1
out the voice of the senior partner. i
'tlifr. Johnsoia. 1"
The person addressed. looked around 1
with a start that would have "brought
down the house" in a melodrama.
"Yes, Sir."
"May I ask what is the _ meaning of
all this, and why you are not getting
through with your work ?"
have been checking a calculation
iss Vernon's, Sir."
t's a singular thing, said Mr. Mid- 1
dleton, with a grim sruile--"It's a
singular thing, that in the space of a
few -it eoliths, you should all become per- B
vad d with such a spirit of unselfish- m
ness. It seems to me that each of you W
is always doing somebody else's .work, 11
and never attending to/his or her own. e
Please understand therefore, that unless Ny
you are prepared to adhere to the terms h
of a,geement made between us when I m
engaged yon, I must look about for d
those who are willing to do so." b
Having thus epoken, Mr. Middleton re
stalked into the private office. When V
be entered the private PffiCe Joseph was te
dict ting a letter to the corresponding -0/1
°ler . But Joseph had no need to by

his 1 and on the back of her chair, and m

Real y, Joseph was becoming foolish in tb
his o d age. At forty-eight he should in
be owing more dignified, more con- ! th

- He ry sat down in stern silence, and ! th

• Then Joseph, like all quiet, shy people in
when laboring under embarrassment, 1 th
eaulcl not be silent, and began to pester 1 aft
his brother with all kinds of irrele-
vant questions and remarks. He re- I 110

"I should advise you. to refresh your ; ne

and the conversation dropped.
Presently at the door their came a pia.
