You want the carriage man to call your number. All right, Mitch. If you're out at lunch with Mr. Carnegie the next time I want a dozen number ten sheets I'll have you paged at the Union League Club." If the speaker liked this kind of blank verse, she had called up the right supply house, for Mitchell came back with: "Say, if I ever get your number, I'll do the calling, Miss Santa Fé."
"I'm gonna get the whole story out of Esther soon as I get back to town," she said doggedly. But she did not nor for many days after. Kirby heard his name being paged as he entered his hotel. "Wanted at the telephone, sir," the bell-hop told him. He stepped into a booth and the voice of Rose came excited and tremulous.
As I think of that view, so variously spacious in effect, I am back there, and this sunlit paper might be lamp-lit and lying on my old desk. I see it all again, feel it all again. In the foreground is a green shaded lamp and crumpled galley slips and paged proofs and letters, two or three papers in manuscript, and so forth.
I'll give her the once over," Mallow agreed. "If she's anybody in our set, I'll know her." The dinner had scarcely started when Gray heard his name paged and left the table. In the lobby Mallow was waiting with a grin upon his face. "Is that her?" he inquired. "That is the girl." "Girl? 'Arline Montague, eh?

The leaves were not paged or folioed. But on further collation I missed sundry of the Psalms, enough to fill four leaves.
In fact, it seems slightly indecent to them for anybody to want privacy." One of Thalvan Dras' human servants came into the room, coughed apologetically, and said: "A visiphone-call for His Valor, the Mavrad of Nerros." Vall went on nibbling ham and wine sauce; the servant repeated the announcement a trifle more loudly. "Vall, you're being paged!" Thalvan Dras told him, with a touch of impatience.
We'd got as far as the cheese and demi tasse when I noticed one of the soldiers a big, two-fisted husk wander past us slow and then drift out. A minute or two later Hartley is being paged and the boy says there's a 'phone call for him. "For me?" says Hartley, lookin' puzzled. "Oh, very well."
The first sheet and the last had been written very recently just before the boy had left his quarters for the last time to go on board the Malplaquet; the remainder had been set down at various times; and the whole had been connected up, put together, and paged after the completion of the last sheet.
