you might be the child's mother."
"He's jealous because he's not an aunt himself. Isn't he, ducksey

"I do wish you wouldn't keep dragging the baby into the conversation; we

rather a farce."
"Hasn't Dahlia broken it to you?" said Myra anxiously.
"Simpson?" I asked, in an awed whisper.

play our best ball. We might----"
