who made a hobby of maiTlago and

he managed to lie nt length "I must
ask my physician If I may first."
"Oh. I see." said Joslo.
"Hut." he hastened to change the
subject, "you're not drlnklnz. either of
you. I sincerely hope It's nut so very
bad."
Angle replaced her glass, barely last
ed. "Do you like It. JosleT'
To Josle's credit it must be admit

Tbo chorus negatived this suggestion
very promptly.
"Why don't yon try a glass, Mr.

slyly nudging Josle.
"I'm on the wagon I mean. I don't

wa deeply grateful for the diversion
afforded by tbe entrance of a third
customer.
