Beware, My Lovely Page #2

I hired.

Ha ha ha! I believe

he's afraid of Corky.

He couldn't be. Now, hurry or

you're going to miss that train.

Corky, you bad dog!

Up! Come here!

That a-boy. I'm sorry.

I don't know what's come over him.

Glad you're here.

The name is...

Howard Wilton,

ma'am.

That's right. Howard

Wilton. Mr. Armstrong.

I'm glad to meet you. I know you're

going to be a great help to Mrs. Gordon.

I hope to be. I tried

to make friends with him.

Oh, he just doesn't trust

strangers. I'm sorry.

Well, nice meeting you.

Good-bye, Helen.

Good-bye, dear. And drop

me a card, won't you?

I'll do that.

Good-bye, Corky.

See him off to

the gate, Corky. Go on.

Oh, my.

Sorry, I'm late.

Oh, that's all right.

There's so much to do.

Oh, yes, the wreath.

Here.

Thank you.

Where does it go?

Uh, right

over the door.

Thank you.

The dog wasn't here

when I came yesterday.

No. He runs off

all the time.

Haven't seen a dog

yet that liked me.

You probably imagine

they don't like you.

That looks nice.

You ever owned one?

No.

Better come inside

and get started now.

Oh, give me your coat, and

I'll hang it here in the closet.

Thank you.

Where shall I

put this?

Oh, I'll take it.

Now, let me see.

Oh, yes, I think I'd like

the floors waxed first.

Floors are

my specialty.

Maybe I don't work as fast as

others, but when I've finished,

You know they've

really been polished.

That's good. Well, I'll

get the waxing things.

You shouldn't carry

that. It's too heavy.

Thank you.

You should have

let me get it.

Oh, I'm used to

carrying it.

Well, you won't

carry it anymore.

Now, uh, oh, yes, why don't you

put the rugs on the front lawn

and then they'll be

out of your way?

All right.

Need any help,

Mrs. Gordon?

No, thanks! I'm just

getting some boxes.

Mrs. Gordon,

if you don't mind,

I'd like to take my coat

somewhere else.

Your coat?

Yes. You see, I didn't know

it was a storage closet.

It might get dirty.

It's my only coat.

Oh, well, I have

a cedar closet upstairs.

You can put it there

if you like.

Yes.

Soon as I get rid of

these, I'll take it up.

If you'll tell me where the

closet is, I'll take it up.

Oh, it's the first door on the

right at the top of the stairs.

Wouldn't want you running

upstairs on my account.

Operator, 4892, please.

Yes, thank you.

Uh, hello.

This is Mrs. Gordon.

Would you get

Mr. Anderson for me?

Hello, Mr. Anderson? Uh, I've got

quite a Christmas list for you.

Thank you.

Very well, then.

I'll expect him.

Late this afternoon?

Oh, thank you. I appreciate it.

Bye.

Would you like me to

help you trim the tree?

Oh, no, thank you. I just

wanted to look at them.

I really think we should
