Come and see 'em.","What do you say, Mr. Sarby?" asked Etwald, turning to the lawyer.,"Well, why not? I wish the first to arrest the second.",CHAPTER V THE GHOST DANCE,"It's a good thing you two innocents have a responsible person like Judith to look after you," he said seriously. "I don't know what you'd do without a protector to play providence for you.","She got safely off, and then the model began to look queer, and in a minute she'd fainted. Howes brought her to with a glass of mineral water, and the class broke up. But the model didn't go. After Benton had made a small spicy speech of farewell—he's leaving, can't stand being sassed—she got up on the stand and gave us a bunch of monologues that were out of sight. She used to be on the variety stage until she lost her voice. I tell you, Kendall missed it.","Well, I haven't any complaint to make with the new arrangements," she said expansively.
