"That wasn't I, I saw in there " her thoughts blurred, "it's just a dreadful dream that wasn't Felice I saw oh, Dudley Hamilt I was so pretty that night! And now I'm just old like Grandy like Piqueur " After a million years or was it after one little minute? the car stopped easily. Like the dream that Felicia had hoped the whole dreadful day had been.
What we need is a press agent like Dudley Hamilt." "He's not a press agent " gasped the fat man. "He's the prince of press agents," answered Graemer easily, "he gets more publicity, favorable publicity, for anything he touches than any one I've ever watched work. Look what he did for the coal interests and look at that work of his in last fall's campaign "
"He always said I couldn't but, don't you think I do in 'The Juggler'?" she entreated Hamilt. "It's an actress-proof part, isn't it?" he bantered, watching her lazily. "Brute!" she pouted. "Perhaps he is complimenting me," teased Graemer. "Not at all," promptly answered the rude Mr. Hamilt. "You've all but ruined the play with your everlasting managing. It's a peach up to the last act.
Hamilt, because I've been wanting to have a talk with you for a long time. It isn't only about 'The Juggler' that I wanted to talk with you but about all of my productions. There are so many of them and I am so busy with them that there are a lot of angles of the game that I do not have time to touch.
"The druggist says that the Hamilt house stood where this apartment is being built, Madam. He says he understands that the elder Mr. Hamilt is dead but that the younger one has an office somewhere in Manhattan. Perhaps you could speak with him on the telephone " Speak with him! Her face glowed with sudden color.
"Let's pretend," she interrupted him, her low contralto voice trembling, "Let's pretend that I'm somewhere you can't see me I only wanted to tell you that I had your letter. I wanted you to know how happy it made me to have it. Dudley Hamilt " The receiver dropped from her hand; somewhere back of her the giggling grew fainter and farther away.
From beneath Louisa's ridiculous old bonnet her hair scraggled untidily, her pallor accentuated the dark circles under her drooping eyelids. Yet when she looked up at him, the glory in those tired eyes surprised him. "I'm going," oh, how she wanted to say "to Dudley Hamilt"! It took all her reserve to finish her sentence calmly! "To eighteen Columbia Heights."
I will be by the gate and you shall say, 'Here's a girl you used to know, Dudley Hamilt! And then you'll hurry off and leave it for me I can't pretend I'm young and pretty but I can pretend I'm I'm a little amusing and it will be the last night before I go to France that I do it so that if he doesn't find me amusing it won't really matter, because the next day I'll be gone and it will just have been a 'pretending' do you mind helping me?"
The Major had lost a wife and a daughter and he evidently had made up his mind he wasn't going to let the last generation slip away. So you can just about guess how popular Dudley Hamilt was when he broke into the Major's back yard. "The old soldier didn't take a chance. He abso-bally-lutely disappeared the next day. Took the girl with him, of course. Dud went around like a wild man.
The first two acts of that play Gad, it got me up till then, but the rest of it " he broke a bit off a crusty roll and buttered it carefully, "I can readily believe, Mr. Graemer," he added deliberately, "that you did write the rest of the play." "You have to give the public what it wants," suggested Graemer blandly. "No, you don't," said Dudley Hamilt.
