face ; that is the senior Secretary, Mr. 
Douglas.” 
“ What P The Mr. Douglas, who 
wrote that jolly hook 1 The World of In- 
sects ?’” 
“The same: now beside him you see 
a smaller, fair-haired gentleman ; that is 
the other Secretary, Mr. Shepherd, of 
whose collection you have heard so 
much.” 
“ But who is that lively-looking gen- 
tleman that sits behind him ; now he is 
busy taking notes; but a few minutes 
ago he was talking very briskly ?” 
“That is Mr. Westwood.” 
“What? Westwood of the ‘Intro- 
duction to Modern Clas — 
“Yes. But now look on the other 
side of the President, you will see a gen- 
tleman very bald and with a care-worn 
expression of countenance, who every 
now and then has some money handed 
to him, and he sends a slip of paper 
across the table in exchange ; that is 
Mr. Stevens, the Treasurer; it is a very 
anxious post that of Treasurer to a 
learned body.” 
“ But who is that little gentleman 
with a chin as hairy as Mr. Douglas?” 
“ That is Mr. Janson, so learned in 
Staphylines." 
“Then who is that now talking to Mr. 
Westwood, with long dark hair and with 
no whiskers?” 
“That is Mr. Staiuton; you will see 
he is always ready to laugh at a joke, 
and is a most hearty laugher.” 
“ Then who is that very pleasant- 
looking gentleman, rather bald, who 
solaces himself now and then with a 
pinch of snuff?” 
“ That is Mr. Waterhouse ; and he is 
not only pleasant-looking, but really a 
very pleasant person.”
