Mary said that would be just grand

wanted to put the cat out of doors.
While Henry was in this state of
mind a Washington clerk almost faint

unable to produce a permit to place
the governments money in bank.
The inspector cashed the check and
returned to Chicago. Henry went
right on making pies, thinking every
thing had been settled to the salts

the more he thought the more seri-

a warrant and Henry was arrested.
He will be tried before United

unravel the tangle of red tape which
binds him as the result of Mary's
ambitions for position.
