"Sleeping-powders are dangerous," observed Minetti, throwing his hat upon the bed. "So I fancied," replied Suvaroff, dryly. "Where do you spend your nights?" Minetti demanded suddenly. Suvaroff sat down. "Watching shadows in a wine-shop." "Ah a puppet show!" "No, not exactly. I will explain.... No; come to think of it, there is no explanation. But it is extremely amusing.
"She's nervous." "Bad things, sleeping-powders," said Nolan. "Get her to take some setting-up exercises by an open window and she'll sleep like a top." "Do you mind, if I go, father?"

"They don't understand you."
