Maid. I have sent some of the things to be pressed, but one of your dresses was slightly stained with wedding cake. One box was open.
Mrs. R. Oh, dear me, I thought something would happen.
Maid. I beg your pardon, but you have a most lovely trousseau, and please can I have one of those boxes of wedding cake to dream on?
Mrs. R. Certainly. (Telephone rings.) Please answer the 'phone. (Maid goes to 'phone.)
Maid. Yes, sir..... Yes, sir..... I am the maid, sir. (To Mrs. R.) Your husband is talking and wants to know if he would disturb you if he came up to see you a moment?
