The pretty room was exquisitely cheerful, a coal fire burning rosily in the neat little grate, but for its effect upon Canby it might have been a dentist's anteroom. He was unable to sit, and began to pace up and down, shampooing himself with both hands.
"Yisso," said Sato, delighted. "Ve'y so'y. Mis' Potter kassee nobody." "I will see him. "Wait. It's all right," Tinker reassured him soothingly. "It's all right, Sato. You go and tell Mr. Potter that I'm here and Mr. Canby came with me." "Yisso." Sato stood back from the door obediently, and they passed into the hall. "You sidowm, please."
Then Potter's expression changed; he looked queer. He clapped his hands loudly; Sato appeared. "Sato, take that stuff out." He pointed to the untouched whiskey.

Sato beamed upon him enthusiastically. "Yisso, yisso! See Mis' Tinker, yisso! You come in, Mis' Tinker. Ve'y so'y. Mis' Potter kassee nobody."
