' Miss Mamie, I have come to night to ask you a question which I have long had in my mind to ask.’ Miss Mamie (expectantly > : ‘Why, I am sure if I can answer any question I shall be glad to do so.’ Mr Slowcoach : ‘Yes. I have long wanted to ask you something, but I did not know whether you would care to hear.’
Miss Mamie: ‘ You know, Mr Slowcoach, that I should be glad to hear whatever you might say.’ Mr Slowcoach : • Well, then, Mamie—that is, of course. Miss Mamie—do you think I look better in a stand-up or turn down collar ?’
