across the table at each other. AS
soon as the dinner was over they
rushed into a quiet corner and de-
manded simultaneously:

your husband to bring you?"
How on earth did you manage
to make him Gomez"
ooh, / hadn't much trouble this
time" modestly replied the woman
in green and black. You know my
husband always reads his paper al

How awfully bright of you and
how nice you are looking. If that
scheme isn't copyrighted l might try
it myself some time"
Goodness, no; use it if you like.

And it isn't true at all!' He was
quiet for a minute or two. Then in
a queer voice he said: BY the way,
