Look here, Florrie. D'you know what I was doin' when you came in? Mrs. Madden. I didn't notice. Figgerin' somethin', I s'pose. Y' always are. Madden. This mornin' at the office I got called to the phone. The Excelsior Shoe Comp'ny said you cashed a check there yesterday for fifteen dollars. Said you bought a pair o' shoes... those, I suppose... an' had some money left over. Check came back to 'em this mornin' from the bank.—"No funds." Mrs. Madden. How'd I know there wasn't no money in th' bank? Madden. If you kept your check book up to date you'd know. Mrs. Madden. W'at right they got not t' cash my check?
