Pilbury sported too, ugly in the face. Parson taketh the chair. Parson is a f l and two between." "Oh!" broke in the outraged Parson. "I knew he was a Radical cad. All right, Bosher, my boy; you'll catch it! Steam away, Telson!" "`It was a gross meeting, Pringle being much stuck-up. He maketh a speech. Meditations while Pringle is making a speech. The grass is very green. I am the Radical."
In a few days, however, they had all sufficiently got over the shock of the last afternoon's experiments to decide on a fresh venture, and these lessons continued, on and off, during the rest of the term. It can hardly be said that by the end of the term Pilbury or Cusack knew any more about chemistry than they had known this first day.
"Yes," shouted Philpot, "Mr Gentlemen, yes, I do and " "Wait a bit, you howling cad," exclaimed Pilbury, in excitement. "I've not done yet!" "Mr Philpot!" said Mr Isaacs. "Philpot be blowed," cried the irate Pilbury, "wait till I'm done." "Order, order," shouted members on all sides. "Moved by Mr Pilbury, seconded by Mr Philpot," began Isaacs. "Easy all," cried Philpot, "I've not spoken yet."
"Look out, I say!" exclaimed Philpot, in great excitement; "let it go, will you?" "What's the row?" asked Pilbury and Cusack, both in alarm. "Why, that's got my oxygen in it," cried Philpot, securing the bottle and gently lifting it on to the table, taking care to hold the glass plate that covered the mouth in its place.

He's sure to get in; the Radicals were nowhere." "And what are you going to say to the doctor in the morning?" asked Riddell. "Eh? oh, I suppose we shall catch it. Never mind, there'll be lots to keep us company.

The only respectable relation he had, and the only one at all likely to produce any good or salutary effect upon intending parents!
