 His exaggerated falsetto tone made me laugh again, but I sSSothered it quickly. The persifage, relieving as it was to my over-strained nerves, was not getting me any nearer the inevitable explanation. With sudden courage I cut the Gordian knot swiftly.
 Lillian is at the apartment" ' said quietly.
 He made no slightest gesture of astonishment, but the car shot for ward in accelerated speed, and for i've minutes he did not speak, nor. of course, did I. Then he slowed the car, and without looking at me, be- gan talking with no trace of his usual fippancy.

A tragically humorous thought occurred to me: suppose that these people who lived in these grimy tenements, and in similar or worse habitations all over the world, should decide to quit the bitter struggle for mere existence? Suppose. instead of going on strike, or starting riots or turning Bolshe- vik, they chose by lot certain num- ber and that certain number imme- diately killed themselves? On the next day, another number would kill themselves, and the remainder would declare publicly their intention of fol- lowing the suicidal example.
