lady, I know the city, inside out and outside in again. I been playing the
game with it since I can remember. You can't tell me anything I don't know
about the lowest, poorest side of it. Oh I could tell you things that
would make your head swim. If you want your boy dosed just sick as a horse
on what a workingman gets in Multiopolis 'tween Sunrise Alley and Biddle
Boulevard, just you turn him over to me a week. I'll fix him. I'll make
the creamery job look like 'Lijah charioteering for the angels to him,
honest I will lady; and he won't ever _know_ it, either. He'll come
through with a lump in his neck, and a twist in his stummick that means
home and mother. See?"
The woman looked at Mickey in wide-eyed and open-mouthed amazement: "Well

"If you don't believe me, try it," said Mickey.
"Well! Well! I'll have to think," she said. "I don't know but it would be
a good thing if it could be done."
"Well don't you have any misgivings about it being done," said Mickey.
