The man has been fed out of the chafing-dish, and also with accidental cake, for men are as fond of sugar as women, though they are ashamed to admit it. Suddenly, without warning, the man misses an evening, then another, then another. Two weeks go by, and still no man.
And, filled with delightful anticipations, the four girls strolled down the sun-lit street. "Come in, girls! Grace, put your chocolates what are left of them over on the mantel.
