had been slmmering and steaming for
Years broke forth in one mighty Pro-
test. He pounded on the Table, just as
he had seen Mr.. Beefer do. He de-
nounced the Place as being worse than
Tramps' Boarding House. He called
for the Head Waiter in fierce and strid-
ent Tones. He announced that he would
register his Roar with no one but the
Boss. He had noticed chat a successful
Buffer always waves the Underlings out

that when Mr.. Beefer arose and De-

didn't do 1t just right. At any rate the
