Now it happened that on the

did not pursue lhtt subject any

'Very good. That will do for tllo

So Ethel moved away and Judge
stepped forward.
'You remember a friend of your

'1 do, Sir.'
'Ile used to call him Charley

'Ho did, Sir.'
'They had been at Eaton to-

'Yes, Sir, they had 1 believe ; at

'In the 24th Lancers—she was,

'And do yott remember his twice

'Mr. Coventry never camo to call

Judge promptly.
'But your mistress said that be

'I dare say my mistress was told
so, Sir ; but Mr. Coventry never
called on her or anyone else, for the
very good reason that he died on

'You are sure ?'
'Perfectly euro, Sir. He was

'Where was that ?'
'On the Gold Ooaet, Sir. He

'Lord Rosetrevor—' gasped the
lady—'you insult me.'
'1f to speak the plain and un-
varnished truth is to insult, then
I most plead guilty to tin charge,'
he said.
'I ineint upon your leaving the

Long ago in old Judea, angels sang

Spotless as the snow-white lilies that in

Ring the heavens with their praises,

Shepherds, starting front their slumber,

Nations springing into being, roll the
melody along ;
Hallelujah 1 Jesus reigneth I earth and

And the hearts of far off heathen in their

Ransomed voices swell the el. as from
