The tall domino, dancing with the other flower girl, felt the strains of Espanita creeping up his backbone, and he said,
"There is something in the air out here that is almost intoxicating!"
The flower girl answered: "It'll do more than that for you, if you'll give it a chance. It will make you see things."
"I don't understand you," replied the domino in a dignified way.
"I mean you'd see if you stayed here long enough that what Jim Manning needs is help, not investigating."
"How do you know I'm not Manning?"
The flower girl sniffed. "I'm an old woman so I can tell you that no woman would ever mistake him for anyone else after she'd once danced with him."
"He is making a most regrettable record here," very stiffly from the domino.
"Shucks! Why don't you fire Arthur Freet? I warn you right now that he's trying to get his hooks into this dam."
