THE NUISANCE 



(The story will soon take a turn.) 



A coward of the meanest type! I decided to 

 take a trip to Dayton, Ohio, for the express pur- 

 pose of giving the Nuisance a chance to prove 

 some of his stories. I was certainly ready to 

 back up my part of the aflFair. The deputy went 

 into the office and led the manager out to me. 

 I knew it was not safe for me to go to that office 

 without police protection, for he would say I 

 was "running after him" or something about 

 as foolish. 



Of all the nervous, white and frightened 

 human beings, he was the worst looking I ever 

 saw. He knew he was cornered. He pleaded 

 and begged for mercy like a child. He was no 

 longer the big bluffer, full of hot-air talk. He 

 was a flat tire, and a mighty flat one at that. 

 It was really funny in a way, and the court 

 officers had a good laugh at his expense. He 

 shivered and shook likea wet dog on a cold day. 

 He began telling the deputy what a fine girl I 

 was; he knew me, he said, since I was a child 

 (and that's a lie; he did not). He said I was an 

 honest, self-made, successful girl, as pure as a 

 lily, as honest as the sun. Oh, shucks! Such 

 a lot of josh! I said, "Stop that line of talk." 

 He rattled off like an auctioneer. "All I want 

 from you, Mr. R., is a clean, truthful statement 

 of my acquaintance and nothing but the truth." 

 Just imagine me being in love with a man with 

 a wife and seven children !

RAINBOW FREESIAS

 they grow for their own retail trade or for the wholesale market. Moreover, 

 the habit of plant is branching, each bulb giTincr two to three flower 



spikes with stems long enough for all floral purposes. The mixture offered 

 includes several shades of yellow, orange, lavender and pink, all harmonizing 

 with each other when bunched together.
