I thought he would be sure to take some notice of me; but I didn't even know he was there till he set up that awful, unearthly howl." "I think it's very cruel to have turned the dog out into the cold," Bubbles said in her quick, decided way.

"There's nothing about dogs I don't know, Doctor--Doctor--" "-- Panton," he said shortly.
"Oh, Panton?
May I go out to him, Dr.Panton ?" There was a challenge in her tone.
Panton answered stiffly: "By all means.

But Span's not always pleasant with complete strangers; and he prefers men, Miss Dunster." "I think he'll be all right with me." Bubbles went and opened the door, and a moment later they heard her low, throaty voice talking caressingly to the dog.

Span whined, but in a gentle, happy way.
"He's quite good now," she called out triumphantly.
Varick turned to the company: "Will you forgive me for a moment ?" he said.

"I forgot to say a word to my chauffeur about our plans for to-morrow." And as he went through one door, Bubbles, followed by the now good and repentant Span, appeared through another.
"He's a darling," she cried enthusiastically.
