"Say," he said, "any time anybody puts anything over on you!" "And you?" "There you are!" he cried, eying her fizz. "Drink it down; it's good for what ails you." "Gawd!" she said.
I am beginning to feel snoozy." Craig had been eying the two, evilly. Set the wind in that direction? An idea found soil in his mind, and grew. He would put a kink, as he vulgarly expressed it, into that affair. He himself wasn't good enough for her. The little cat should see.
