- INTRODUCING MR. IFF
- Pause.... "Beg pardon?"
- With dignity: "I was not intending to laugh, sir."
- Mr. Iff enquired in simple surprise: "Do you really care to know?"

- THE BANDBOX
- Then, confidentially, he said: "What the devil _now_?"
- III
- TWINS
- He addressed her in a diffident and uncertain voice: "I beg pardon...."
- A voice shrieked excitedly: "_Why_, Mr. Staff!"
- She shook her head at him reprovingly. "You don't _know_?"
- His eyes were blank. "And what, please, is the Cadogan collar?"

- QUEENSTOWN
- The girl nodded. "Very."
- But she hesitated. "I'm not sure I ought ..."
- Dissatisfied, knitting his brows faintly, he said: "I wonder ...!"
- Staff's eyes clouded. "Why ..."
- ISMAY?
- He nodded: "Yes."

- IFF?
- The purser stared. "What's that?"
- Manvers said: "This is Mr. Iff, Captain Cobb."
- Iff giggled nervously: "Oh, captain! the ladies--"
- VII
- STOLE AWAY!
- He stared. "Why?"
- From a deck-chair a woman's voice hailed him: "Oh, Mr. Staff...."
- Staff started. "What made you think of that?"
- VIII
- THE WRONG BOX
- She pouted prettily. "Can't you let that be? No, of course not."
- Coolly she inclined her head: "I did just that, my dear."
- He shrugged helplessly. "Proceed ..."

- He started violently, recognising the voice that answered: "Mr. Staff?"

- WON'T YOU WALK INTO MY PARLOUR?
- She gave him a look of contempt. "You know it!"
- In spite of her fatigue, the girl rose to face him. "What do you mean?"
- Hope flamed in her eyes. "You mean--you can't mean--"
- He shrugged. "There's the rub. She's left town."
