And that was just the way you felt about ft when It was all over, and the energetic Miss Marlowe had saved all the ambulances, and recovered from the wound, and reached the gladsome yum-yum stage of the proceedings. which was the signal to dive for your hatpins. “Poor geil!’ you echoed; “a good night's rest won't do her any harm.” For of all the hardworking Indies In the heroine business Miss Marlowe had Proven the clearest Utle to the reward cpveted by the harassed housekeeper who epitaphed berself In the Immortal couplet: Don't urn for me now, don't mourn for me — to do nothing for ever and ever!
