He believed now that Miss Baxter would have done it much better.

He ventured a question.

"But how about Miss Baxter--when does she do something?
Is she going to be swept off the boat, too ?" "Baxter?
Into that water?
Quit your kidding!" "But isn't she here at all--won't she do anything here ?" "Listen here, Kid; why should she loaf around on the set when she's paying me good money to double for her ?" "You--double for Beulah Baxter ?" It was some more of the girl's nonsense, and a blasphemy for which he could not easily forgive her.
"Why not?
Ain't I a good stunt actress?
I'll tell the lot she hasn't found any one yet that can get away with her stuff better than what I do." "But she--I heard her say herself she never allowed any one to double for her--she wouldn't do such a thing." Here sounded a scornful laugh from Jimmie, the prop--boy.

"Bunk!" said he at the laugh's end.

"How long you been doublin' for her, Miss Montague?
Two years, ain't it ?--I know it was before I come here, and I been on the lot a year and a half.
