“No; I did it myself.”
“And is your headache quite well now?”

“I must have taken a chill,” said Augusta. “I have been like this, off and on, all day.”
“Have you had anything to eat, Gussie?”
“No; I could not eat. But I should like something to drink. My eyes burn, and I am awfully thirsty.”
“Oh, there are such piles of ices downstairs! I will go and fetch you a strawberry ice.”
“You really are a good little thing. But come here. Have you heard anything fresh about the Asprays?”
