My Own Japonette: Truly I have risen in the world. Tonight I sat next to the leading Lady of Ben Hur all through dinner and listened to her prate stage talk for most of an hour. No she was not prating to me but I Sat next to her. Hotel is crowded with show people right now. It is no place for an honest hard-working salesman. One of the show girls is playing Isle of Dreams to a D'amour right now to an appreciative audience. I left so as to finish this letter before going to work. I day dreamed a good deal to-day and have felt rather blue. You letter had somewhat that effect on me. I almost thought there was a coldness about it but I am sure I was mistaken. Wasn't I? Time to go to work now. Sleep good my little love. Dahry
