"Yes, and sixty more like it," replied
the editor.
Nothing more was heard Of Mr.. Nc
Carthy for several months. When he
eventually put in an appearance at the
office he had a large parcel with hllu-

the editor, seeing him unite the cord.
These are the sixty stories you
asked me to write,' answered his VS.

But 1 didn't ask you to write any

''You expressed your willingness to

not refused.
