I've got a recipe here which is used by the chef at Sherry's." "Go to it!" laughed Ned. "I'll take my chances on having canned meat for dinner." "You just wait!" roared Jack, as Ned dashed down to the spring. Jack stood a moment, pail in hand, watching Ned washing at the spring, and then went on to the fire, leaving Ned to proceed to the corral and entertain the guests.
And because Bourke was a diplomatist of sorts, Marcel acquired the knack of being at ease in every grade of society: he came to know that a self-made millionaire, taken the right way, is as approachable as one whose millions date back even unto the third generation; he could order a dinner at Sherry's as readily as drinks at Sharkey's. Most valuable accomplishment of all, he learned to laugh.
"When did you come up?" he asked. "Only yesterday," answered Honora. "New York," said Mr. Spence, producing a gold cigarette case on which his monogram was largely and somewhat elaborately engraved, "New York is played out this time of year isn't it? I dropped in at Sherry's last night for dinner, and there weren't thirty people there."
"They kicked me when I was down." Aided by Powell he made his way to a pump and there bathed his head and procured a drink of water. While both boys were recovering from the adventure all the lights in Mike Sherry's resort were put out and every door and window was locked. "He wants to steer clear of trouble," said Powell. "I put the blame on Lew Flapp," answered Dick.
If you dined gloriously at Sherry's and had a box at the play you made up for it the next night by a chop at Smith's and a cooling ride in a ferry-boat, say to Staten Island and back. Saturday you got off early and went to Long Island or Westchester for tennis and a swim, and lived till Monday in a luxurious house belonging to a fellow-clerk's father, or were put up at the nearest country club.
Francis laughed again, and shook his head. "It will do you good to guess. Come now, which Sherry's or the Plaza or the Ritz?" "Sherry's they're going to close it soon, poor old place!" "Then we'll celebrate its obsequies," said Francis, grinning cheerfully.
He divined the subject which she wished to discuss and dreaded the interview. The ethical side of the matter gave him no concern; but the same lack of stamina which caused him to shrink made it impossible for him to refuse. "Where shall I meet you?" he hesitantly inquired, "at Sherry's as usual?" "No," she hastily objected. "That has become rather too usual."
"Before we begin," said Titania, "just let me give Bock his present." She showed a large package of tissue paper and, unwinding innumerable layers, finally disclosed a stalwart bone. "I was lunching at Sherry's, and I made the head waiter give me this. He was awfully amused." "Come along into the kitchen and give it to him," said Helen. "He'll be your friend for life."
As they turned out of the avenue for Sherry's main entrance Susan realized that she was in Forty-fourth Street. The street where she and Spenser had lived! had lived only yesterday. No not yesterday impossible! Her eyes closed and she leaned back in the cab. Gideon was waiting to help her alight. He saw that something was wrong; it stood out obviously in her ghastly face.
At numberless counters they studied and counselled, and lunching at Sherry's they shopped on. And the shimmer and sheen of pretty things made life a glamourous mirage, in which Ethel could feel herself rapidly becoming a New Yorker, gaining assurance day by day, feeling "her type" emerge in the glass where she studied herself with impatient delight.
