"How do you know!” inquired the girL
•'How do 1 know?** he repeated In a
whisper. "Why, by experience, of course.
That was the way with me when I first got
shaved.”
“When was that?*’ she asked innocently.
"Oh. before I raised my mustache,” be
returned, moving uneasily.
"What mustache?” she queried, a little
surprised.
"What mustache do you suppose?” he
retorted, turning red.
"Why, Charlie,” whispered the giri,
never saw any mustache. Do you mean”—
"Never mind what 1 mean,” hissed the
young man through his front teeth, and
became silent. There was lota of fnn in
