“They’re a regular Damon and Pythias, aren’t they? And we’ll have Flash for the Polar Bear, in the circus, and Tom for the Royal Bengal Tiger, the baby tiger, you know.” “Ef you could only see how you look, Betty. You must hev some eyebrows somehow.” “By heck!” ejaculated Mr. Wopp who sat in the front seat beside his wife and Betty.
