The hint bell had r u n g several minutes before, but, having been detained by some urgent business, the worthy professor was now almost live minutes late. Arriving at the class-room, he unlocked the door and entered. Not o u t of the class was to be seen, and having waited a reasonable length of time for the absentees to make their appearance, the professor left the room, locked the door and returned to his office. Hardly was the office door shut when there was a sound of many feet, and the delinquent class issued from the doors of the reading-room, just across the hall. There was a rather boisterous smile on the face of each as they filed over to the door of the recitation-room, and when • they found the door secured against all invaders, they did not seem overwhelmed with grief. Downstairs they tiled in solemn, orderly procession, a look of gloom resta ing upon their usually bright faces, and the last I heard w s, " I say, the old man will be looking out of t h e window," accompanied by a half-suppressed chuckle.
