"Now, you take a pace back." "See here—when do we eat?" "Like a sea-going hack— "Stepped all over my feet!"
"Such a long intermish!" "Do you wish lemonade?" "She's like Dorothy Gish." "Yes, that's imported Jade."
"I could fox-trot all night." "And never grow weary!" "M-m-m! My face is a sight; "Slip me your puff, dearie."
"There's those two, cheek to cheek!" "Ho! See that man bowing." "Now, don't jump when I speak— But your ears are showing!"
"'Home, Sweet Home!'—You live far?" "Why you're really so kind,— But then Art. bro't his car; I am sure you won't mind."
