went on 10 say that he found it much

girl love him. Moreover, he had a
rival, follow named Bill Pike. Slimsey
had watched for an opportunity to steal

with beaming glance. "How about

felt pretty sure that he was solid with
Katie, and he came very near popping
the question at the popcorn stand, but
to make certain, remembering tho unre-
liability of the sex, he invested more of
his capital in candy, hobby horses, lem
