absent sigh.

I'm simply sick of It and the way
people throw 1t at me is tiresome.
They act as though they thought I'd

"Why?" inquired the literal girl.
"Oh, don't know" said the girl

"Of course" she continued. he is

with a number Of others and l can't
see why people should act as though
they thought-that is-well, you
know really they have such an air
of expecting that we're going to be

The literal girl looked puzzled.

in white, plaintively "Of course

to, but I've been made so tired of
him by all these people that I'm

Then why don't you tell him to
