The telephone bell rang yesterday afternoon In a South Side apartment The negro woman cook answered lL "Hello." she said. "Is that you, cookie ?" asked man's voice at the other end. "I'm Mr. B ' cook, but 1 ain't no cookie." "Don't try to fool me. cookie, t know your voice. "Look beah. what you talkln' about?" "Now, angel pie, you fooled me once, dear heart, that way, but you can't do It again. You are by little weet cookie, aren't yon?" "You get away from that telephone. You ahe talkln' like a fool." With that the receiver was slammed on the hook with all the virtuous Indignation In-dignation of an Insulted maiden. The bead of the house was standing stand-ing near. Turning to him she said still fuming: "Some man wanted to know ef I wuz 'cookie.' An' he called me some-thin' some-thin' like 'angel pie.'
