"My dear Etwald, if I did not know you so well, I should take you for a charlatan." "Doesn't it, really?" blazed Patricia, sitting up very stiff and straight.

So Patricia flung her whole self into the sparkling "April Girl," and at the finish had the reward of an ovation. The students clapped and the Eitels applauded with hands and feet, and cried "Encore!" till they were red in the face. Jen rose to his feet and stretched out one hand toward Arkel. Marriage is the only worm in the bud of Mrs. Johnson's life, and her laugh has a snap to it even if it is not very sugary sweet. "I'm busy, Griffin," she began, and then broke off as she saw the girls. "Oh, here you are," she said to Elinor. "I was looking for you in the modeling room.".
