"At any rate, you ought to save something out of your salary." "I ought, but I haven't. The fact is, Carl," said Chauncy Hubbard, in a burst of confidence, "I have a great mind to make a confession to you." "I shall feel flattered, I am sure," said Carl, politely. "I have one great fault I gamble."
A knock at the Reverend Mr. Fairweather's study-door called his eyes from the book on which they were intent. He looked up, as if expecting a welcome guest.

Mr. Fairweather slipped the book he was reading into a half-open drawer, and pushed in the drawer.
It was the hour when the Doctor expected to be in his office, unless he had some special call which kept him from home. He found the Reverend Chauncy Fairweather just taking leave of the Doctor. His hand was on the pit of his stomach, and his countenance was expressive of inward uneasiness.
