"I'm not the style to be struck on a fellow that doesn't care for me."
"But he does!"
"Looks like it, doesn't it?" she said sarcastically.
"Yes, it does, or what would he be hanging around here so long for?"
"Perhaps to see Ada Grosvenor; I suppose she'd have him, red hair and all."
"Pooh! he never goes there; but he comes to your place though, too deuced often for my pleasure."
"He comes to see the boarder—he's a great friend of hers."
"Humph! that's all in my eye. He'd be a long time coming to see her if you weren't there, if she was twice as great a friend. What sort of an old party is she? Must have some means."
"Oh, lovely!"
"I suppose the red-headed mug thinks so too, as she is touting for him."
