when Al tried to give her
another drink instead she
spilled it all over her dress
and wept, so he telephoned for
a waiter.
"Wait," he said, "I'u get you
a whole turkey"
The waiter looked neither to
the right nor left. He didn't
seem to see the limp little Con-

lap while he gave the order. He
said, Eyes, sir. No, sir. I'll

there was a something in his

sneer under the Difference.
The girl who had cried for

When they came back to the

He's got a bum stomach. He'll

Really, he shouldn't drink at

Carter slipped his free arm
around Lalla, drew her to the
davenport beside him and Mary.

sharply.
At the sound Of her voice
Samson reused himself. What's
that? What's the trouble,
Lalla?"
"Oh, nothing. But I take ex-
eeption to what Sid said about
stenographers, that's all. Sid
