influence over him, and besides she
cttuld make things very uncomfortable
if she "was angry. He had at much
knowledge of Saratoga as of the moon,
and all Ufa Gusset kncv was that it
was fiisluonaole to go there, and tbat
a plentiful wardrobe was necessary.
However, they rentnred into the un
kiiowir hnks boldly, armed with
stuffed po'd&et-books and big trunks;
and oue day the hotel held their
names upon its register, and old Gus

wondering what on earth he bad oome

What a blessing it was, though,
after hours of solitude, to see two
