" Can I ? " I repeated.
He spoke not ; he brought his eyebrows still lower down, and solemnly shook his head.
"Can't I really?" I continued.
At last he spoke.
" You can," quoth he, " for a dollar." And, taking the bill of fare in his hands, without wasting any more of his precious utterances, he pointed out to me : " Each meal one dollar." The argument was unanswera...ble.
