With a jar he found that Jinny, too, was seeing
everything that shecouldnt possibly see. You dont think Im merely following a line
in what I say, doyou?
You didnt tell each other they were adisgrace, and
somebody ought to do something about em! And how she made fun of you and hurt
you?
You likethe fireside and your books and
chess.
Do you think youre alittle in love with her? Cass,
whats all this we hear about your going nuts over somefifth-rate stenographer?
Browler got drunk at an Elks Conventionand bought a small red fire
engine.
I got up to sixty-seven, and I intended to learn
them all, including Swahili andLiukiu. In the fresh air that Jinny always bore about
her, he wanted todefy his own ancestral cautions.
He listened to Boone with only a slight
biliousness.
This imperial standingmade him, like Browler,
eligible to the Federal and Heather Clubs. After all, Queenie had some background
for her opinions on lowness. He might know now whether sheloved him or considered
him a bumbler. But theHavock scion, Curtiss, he had invited. Youredead right, my
dear; I do prefer quiet. She often thought about suicide, but she was too blank of

I got up to sixty-seven, and I intended to learn
them all, including Swahili andLiukiu.
I dont suppose her and you were snooping around

I got up to sixty-seven, and I intended to learn
them all, including Swahili andLiukiu. If he was distinctly more leftwing than Jinny

Illnever have that much money again,

In her bright young ruthlessness, shemight dismiss
him forever. Butshe looks so calculating and possessive, where Jinny is like aliving
brook.
Engraving would have been extravagant for her.
Nobody ever knew; Dad and Mother were swell about notprying.
Look here, comrade, have we got to havesocial
significance even in our DREAMS?
Some low-grade tart on the make, added Queenie,
virtuously. Boone struck:Sit down, Cass, and take a load off your feet.
In her bright young ruthlessness, shemight dismiss
him forever.
Their tablewas a slab of rock, splashed orange with
lichens; their divan thespringy moss.
Treacherous as all sweethearts, Jinny babbled, Oh,
thank you,Tracy.
Cass, whats all this we hear about your going nuts
over somefifth-rate stenographer?
And that was all that happened of fleshly
love-making.
You didnt tell each other they were adisgrace, and
somebody ought to do something about em!
Im the second youngest district judge in
Minnesota!
But why is it that nobody ever does do any of the
things that hesfree to do? But any ideas he might have had about trying to betray
