But only to think how kind and friendly a gentleman you must be! Mr Fledgeby found that he was skating round a board marked Dangerous, and had better cut out a fresh track. 'Let's get back to the dodgerest of the dodgers, said he. 'What's he up to in the case of your friend the handsome gal? He must have some object. What's his object?
When it was again and again reiterated, by means of printed dodgers shed broadcast among the homes, by Dalton's talks to the boys in the factory at the closing hour, even by Marie Sauzey's urgings over the wire from the central office, that every stringent need, or helpful offer, was to be communicated to her by telephone, they simply winked at each other, and, hanging up the receiver, whispered to any who happened to be present,

He loves a dodge for its own sake; being, added Mr Fledgeby, after casting about for an expressive phrase, 'the dodgerest of all the dodgers. 'Oh my head! cried the dolls' dressmaker, holding it with both her hands, as if it were cracking. 'You can't mean what you say. 'I can, my little woman, retorted Fledgeby, 'and I do, I assure you.
"Evening, miss! Going home early, ain't ye?" It was a miserable-looking woman in clothes that might have been stolen from a scarecrow. "Market full to-night, my dear?
