Sherrill's great department store, for instance, did not approve of this sort of agitation. Certain stationers, booksellers and other business men had got "cold feet," as Mr. Jason put it, the prospect of bankruptcy suddenly looming ahead of them, since the Corn National Bank held certain paper....
"I have been a fool," said Carl steadily, "a very great fool and blind." Keela's lovely, sensitive mouth quivered. "Is it " she raised glistening, glorified eyes to his troubled face, "is it," she whispered naïvely, "that you care like the lovers in Mic-co's books?" "Yes. And you, Keela?"

"Later," said Philip, "when Miss Westfall returns to her house on wheels, I imagine he too will take to the road again and resume his charming erotics." "That," said the Baron with decision, "is most undesirable." "I agree with you!" said Philip feelingly. "I too have promised to be a guest at Miss Sherrill's fête de nuit!" purred the Baron suavely.
