CHAPTER x.

At all seasonable hours the streets of
New Haven are full of pretty girls.
They are merry girls, too, who like TO
laugh when there's any thing funny in
sight. Drane. with the bogus Mrs.
Drane upon his arm, passed some thou
sands of them, or at least he could have
sworn that he did, and they all looked
out Of the corners Of their eyes, and
grinned with the corners Of their
mouths.
1t is narrowing to be the object Of
this kind of attention. It suggests the
possibility of practical joker's placard
on ones back. or o black mark along
side ones nose. Drane investigated the
subject as well as he could by feeling
stealthily up and down his back, and
using his handkerchief with great vigor.
But for the life Of him he couldn't find
any thing calculated to create so much
innocent amusement.

five hundred. McMinnville has had
