CUNARD ® See Your Local Agent Life Mrs. Pep’s Diary (Continued from page 9) the evening in a book called “Meat,” by Wilbur Daniel Steele, about a child who was born with an excrescence on one side of its head which later developed into a horny surface which could be covered by his hair, and I shall not rest now until I can contrive to lay an in- quisitive hand on the forehead of one of Sam's cronies whose name I shall not set down here. February Awake betimes, longing 1 more than usual to be on 29th 4 boat bound for some balmy clime, being weary of letters from friends about turtle dinners served in gardens where there isn’t enough wind even to stir the candles, which is literally what Valina Griggs did write me from Nassau three or four days ago, the blasty day, in fact, on which the miserable dock officials would not let me aboard the outgoing Saturnia to bid farewell to Mary Lowe, Bill Fanshawe and Ethel Morgan, and had not Mary thought she had lost her trunk and been obliged to come ashore, I should never have been able to get to them the seven splendid detective stories which I had as- sembled. The day gone in collect- ing the tag ends of the month, and then Bob and Edith Banning for din- ner, during the course of which Bob did remark that I was the most nat- ural person that ever he saw in his life, whereto Sam quoth, “Yes, in- deed. And what a lot of different natures she has!" And I could think of nought but to call him a big cas- sowary, my pet epithet which I did glean from the writings of Frank Sullivan, but later I did manage to confide publicly to him that I should never in the world have married him had I not been afraid to be alone at night. Late in the evening to a place where good draught beer is the feature, and I did overhear one of the patrons say, “When my mother goes to a restaurant without her glasses she always orders a veal cut- let." So home and to bed, reading “Under the Greenwood Tree,” and minded by Dick's going nutting that I must order some filberts and Brazil nuts on the morrow, for we have had none so far this winter.
