Albert Puts One Over.

"Albert,” says his wife, severely, “I am very much grieved at your deception. You have always led me to believe that your Green Cloth club was a highbrow literary society. But this paper says’ ‘The chief of police has said that unless there is some change in the secretive tactics of the Green Cloth club the place will be raided. The doors to the place are always locked to those outside the pale, but the click of the Ivories can be plainly heard.’ ”

“Great Scott, Maria, they’ve got us wrong. ‘Click of the ivories,’ eh? Why that’s our officers getting their heads together.” But Albert went out silently and swiftly that he might be safe from embarrassing questions.
