But, Hiram, I didn’t make them. We have a maid to do the work here.
Mr. Benson
Yes, and by jinks, we haven’t had a good meal since.
Hiram
By golly, that’s right, there isn’t anything like home cookin’. Ye ought ter be back on the farm where ye can have eggs and bakin’ powder biscuits and honey for breakfast—a nice young fried rooster for dinner with good old white gravy, mashed potatoes, dressin’ and dumplin’s.
Mr. Asterbilt
Mr. Benson, here is my card. I’m running for commissioner of city improvement. Hope I may have your vote at the election.
Mr. Benson
If you are a Republican, you can count on it.
Mr. Asterbilt
