asked.
"On the contrary," answered
Nick. "Ju ' a ratall< n."

making another comment.
"He’s been banging around hare drunk foi three days,” h" addsd slowly. "Got a case on our primn

"I wish you’d toss him out,” put in Nora. "Hi.; wife is going crazy.” "That's too bad," said Dancer, with a show of sympathy. "I'll

Dancer took Polly Byinee by the arm. ns he made his way to his otllee in the back of the cabaret. "Some of his relations just blew in.” he whispered, nodding at the
half-recumbent Robert.
"What’ll we do. 1 ' asked Polly,

“I'll go on home.”
■'Wait!" cried David desperately. "I'll bring what you want. I'll meet you In live minutes.” They agreed on a rendezvous and
Robert hung up.
