his Nobs. The girls that danced past
stared at him till they pretty near cricked
their necks. He had wavy brown hair
and the cutest curly mustache. His big
brown eyes looked kinda sorrowful and
romantic; and, at that, he was so broad
in the shoulders he could wear lavender
spats and monocle and get away with it.
When Kitty got him all ribbed up to

brought the Count along to show him
dancing Of the better kind, where people
danced because they was young and liked
the idea. And l says that Kitty wasn't
really bad, but only a goat-grabber, and
that he was a poor simp to let her get his
nanny whenever she found life bit slow
for her.
"Why, this here Stefanovic," l says,
"he's real guy and got oodles of money.
He's easy to look at, even if he does doll
up like a count, and he's as stuck on
Kitty as you are. But, if it's any COM

But Bill wouldn't let himself be paci-

steal if they was starving. You must
have let it fall out of your pocket"
So the Count says that of course he
don't suspect nobody, and pretty soon
he drives us home, and drops us at the
end of the block where we roomed.
WHEN we get to the stoop of the house,
there was Bill waiting in the shadow,
looking about as happy as hearsc. He
says he wants a word with Kitty. So
sat on the steps, and for a long time |
hear him begging and apologizing, and
telling her all sorts of alibis about how
he come to put crimp in the Count.
"A guy can't help being stuck on

says he's nothing but poor man, but he
can grab off some real dough for himself

face was all twisted.

Bill full in the face.
Then they went to it siX-handed, and

couldn't see nothing but arms and legs.
1t was natural that the Count should get
