HOW THEY TALKED POLITICS AT MR.

GWYNN's In accord with the requests of Mr.Gwynn, which with them had those graver aspects the requests of royalty possess for London shopkeepers, the President and General Attorney of the Anaconda Airline came to Washington.

The Anaconda president was a short, corpulent man, with dark skin, eyes black as beads, round, alert face, and a nose like the ace of clubs.

The General Attorney was no taller than his superior officer, but differed from him in a figure so spare and starved that it snapped its fingers at description.

As though to make amends for a niggardliness of the physical, Providence had conferred upon our legal one a prodigious head.
