The latter, after recounting at much length the in- juries she had borne at the hands of her liege, lord and master, asked a few questions to satisfy her womanly curiosity about her new-found friend. “Live here?” she inquired of Miss “No,” was the reply; “I spend only a part of my time here during the day. My home is way up in Harlem.” “You're married, ain’t you?” was the next question. “No, I'm not married; and I may never be.” SODA FOUNTAIN When in need of a cool, refreshing soft drink.
