"What are these p.p.that I find noted in the bill--play or pay, hey ?" "Promises, of course, your honor." "Oh! then you desire fifty promises, to provide our dinner." "Nothing more, sir.

With that sum you shall dine like noblemen--ay, sir, like aldermen." I was delighted to find that this worthy class of beings have the same propensities in all countries.
"Here, take a hundred," answered Noah, snapping his fingers, "and make no bones of it.

And harkee, my worthy--lay out every farthing of them in the fare.

Let there be good cheer, and no one will grumble at the bill.
I am ready to buy the inn, and all it holds, at need." The waiter departed well satisfied with these assurances, and apparently in the anticipation of good vails for his own trouble.
We soon got into the current that was setting towards our place of destination.

On reaching the gate, we found that we were anxiously expected; for there was an attendant in waiting, who instantly conducted us to the seats that were provided for our special reception.
