Looking lovingly at him they raised their glasses and drank his health.
"Girlsh," said the man, beseechingly, "I allus trea's yehs ri', didn' I?
I'm goo' f'ler, ain' I, girlsh ?" "Sure," again they chorused.
"Well," said he finally, "le's have nozzer drink, zen." "That's right," hailed a woman, "that's right.

Yer no bloomin' jay! Yer spends yer money like a man.

Dat's right." The man pounded the table with his quivering fists.
"Yessir," he cried, with deep earnestness, as if someone disputed him.
"I'm damn goo' f'ler, an' w'en anyone trea's me ri', I allus trea's--le's have nozzer drink." He began to beat the wood with his glass.
"Shay," howled he, growing suddenly impatient.

As the waiter did not then come, the man swelled with wrath.
"Shay," howled he again.
The waiter appeared at the door.
"Bringsh drinksh," said the man.
The waiter disappeared with the orders.
"Zat f'ler damn fool," cried the man.
