It was a case of disorderly conduct on the part of two girls, one being Mary, the delivery girl for a dress maker. and 8uq, who was assistant to her mar tn the restaurant business. The man In the ta*e was Jim Mobley, who runs a pressing dub of his own. It seems that Jim was stuck on the two girls, but to save his life he couldn't tell which one he loved has;.

And then he was fond of Mary because Mary had so. much styie ab'ut her. and when he walked down the street with her the othar boys Just envied him. But like all women, each wanted him all to herself. If Mary heard ot him going to see Sue she was pout ing for a week, and It was the same thing If Sue heard that he was going to see Mary. It was therefore up to Jim to so steer himself that fc* could be on friendly terms with both.
