But somehow she did not quite sue

a tall. flushed young fellow with a

she was bound to confess that she
was not able to feel just as indignant

could she send this valuable animal

into the middle Of the bicycle palh,
frisking and ready for romp. He was
just in time to collide with Miss Bar

Carleton ran out in perfect agony

The young lady was regarding her
