Merriam, turning to Hal. “It’s a ride for your health. Do you understand? It will be wholly for your health to take that ride!” Hal Hastings couldn’t help comprehending. With a sheepish grin he sat astride of Jack Benson’s back as the latter stood on all fours. “Go ahead with your ride, General,” called Mr. Merriam.
"Now see here " Merriam, his yarn cut off, made conventional objections, meanwhile provocatively filling his guest's glass with a high-ball that should have been sipped through ten minutes. But at Gloria's annoyed "We really must!" Anthony drank it off, got to his feet and made an elaborate bow to his hostess. "It seems we 'must," he said, with little grace.
