to the ice-creamery. One would have imagined
that something more earnest in character
than ice-cream would have been required after
dose Oftragic opera; but no, the simple frost
was good enough for her. Over the dainty
dishes they grew fond. They had Just admired
q handsome turnout at the theater door,
''When get married mean to have just such
q turnout for my wife"
She gave gentle sigh and as the last faint
sweetness of o big spoonful of cream thrilled her
young and sympathetic palate she threw into
her eyes beaming glance and whispered:
''Give me the first ride in it?"
