There was a really splendid young lady in attendance here, who smiled upon me so sweetly that I felt constrained to order a‘lemon squash. While I pondered, with one hand on the counter, the etili smiling barmaid opened conversation brightly. “Er you the genelmun what's ordud er ba wth?” she asked engagingly. I began to feel that there must be some kind of London joke about this formula.
