He ap- parently failed to notice that another ciient. somewhat younger, was staring at him with open interest, and he paid no atten- tion to the fact that in leaving the office the client paused at the door for onme last long look.

Blank, because that's my name. Glad to meet you.” That_is how the little incident be- man. How it ended is beyond the knowledge of a woman who had no excuse for staying after she paid her rent. * % % F you want to see a coming to- gether of church and state—as ex- emplified by Metropolitan M.
