[In an undertone.] I say, what the dickens have you come here for now?

Mrs. Fergusson.

You didn’t tell me when I should see you to-morrow.

Dickie.

Good heavens, you might have rung me up on the telephone.

Mrs. Fergusson.

Oh, I never trust the telephone.

Dickie.

How do you mean you never trust the telephone? Are you in the habit....

Mrs. Fergusson.
