'Glorious creature! Isn't she? said Mrs. Ponto. 'Squirtz's favourite pupil inestimable to have such a creature. Lady Carabas would give her eyes for her! A prodigy of accomplishments! Thank you, Miss Wirt' and the young ladies gave a heave and a gasp of admiration a deep-breathing gushing sound, such as you hear at church when the sermon comes to a full stop.

It was well for the applauding, deep-breathing audience in the state-house that first of January that they did not have a glimpse in room Number Seven the night before, under the sheets that contained the list of the Speaker's committees; it was well that they could not go back to Ripton into the offices on the square, earlier in December, where Mr.
