"Miss Cosie means that she and Mr. Logan have no present use for the money, that they did not intend to spend it," put in Queenie, calmly; but she is so flurried and upset by the whole busi- ness that it is kindest net to talk to her at all upon the subject. It only distresses her kind heart," went on the young girl, With the utmost calmness, though her heart sank over Miss Cosie's first blunder. And Langley, with her usual tact, quietly changed the subject. But Queenie returned home ill at ease.
