MRS. HENRY B. GORDING.
Yes, indeed! Oh my! are you putting one down?
MRS. WM. H. LANE.
Yes, I think that man looks lucky over there with the glasses; besides I like him because his wife sits right by him all the evening.
MRS. HENRY B. GORDING.
(Smiling nervously and fumbling in her glove where she has concealed the money to have it conveniently ready.) Put one down for me, too; will you? (She smiles hysterically.) Dear me, I wonder what my husband would say if he could see me?
MRS. WM. H. LANE.
I don't know a single thing about the game; do you?
MRS. HENRY B. GORDING.
(With two small red spots coming into her cheeks.) Not the slightest. It's finished! I wonder who's won!
