'We don't take in tramps,' said the woman
roughly.
'We're on
chanel bags a tramp,' said
Bradley, resolved not to be rebuffed, 'but we've got money to pay for our
accommodations.'
'This ain't a hotel,' said the woman, but less
roughly.
'Of course not,' said Bradley, in a conciliatory manner; 'but I
guess you won't object to get us some supper and give us a bed. We'll pay for
all the trouble we make. That's fair, ain't it?'
'I don't know what my
husband will say,' returned the woman, in an undecided manner.
'Won't
you ask him, ma'am?'
'He's gone
cheap chanel bags out just now. He
won't be back for an hour.'
'While you're waitin' for him, can't you get
us some supper? Then you can send us off if he ain't willin' to keep
us.'
'I'll do that,' said the woman. 'You'd better stay outside till I
get supper ready. There ain't much room here, and you'll be in the way.'
'Jest as you say, ma'am. I s'pose it would be too much to ask if you kin give us
a hot cup of coffee. We
chanel handbags outlet haven't
tasted any since we left 'Frisco.'
'I can give you coffee,' answered the
woman. 'My husband likes it, and we always keep it on hand.'
'Good!'
said Bradley, his face lighting up with satisfaction. 'We've rid far to-day, and
a cup of coffee will go to the right spot.'
Bradley and Ben threw
themselves on the ground near-by, and awaited with complacence the call to
supper.
'We're in luck, Ben,' said his companion. 'Who'd have expected a
hot supper out here in this lonely place?'
'I
chanel bags
outlet don't much like the looks of our landlady, Jake,' said
Ben.
'She ain't handsome, I allow, Ben; but if she gives us a good
supper, that don't matter. We must make the most of this, for it's uncertain
when we get another.'
'W'on't she give us breakfast in the
morning?'
'I didn't think of that. Maybe she will, and that'll be a good
start on our to-morrow's journey.'
In about three-quarters of an hour
the woman came to the door, and called the travelers in to
chanel bags for
cheap supper.
An unpainted wooden table was set in the
middle of the floor, on which was spread a simple but appetizing meal. There was
a plate of meat, which appeared to have been fried; a loaf of bread, and a pot
of coffee; but there was neither milk nor butter. This naturally detracted from
the attractiveness of the bread and coffee, but our travelers were not disposed
to be fastidious.
