IN describing it afterwards to his cronies at the "Blue Unicorn", Albert Bulfinger always said that the thing came to him in a flash. "Just like 'that'," he'd say, attempting, as always without any success, to snap together two of the linked sausages that were his fingers. "There's somethin' queer about them bottles." That was his first thought when he stumped up the wide driveway of the house called "Stonehaven", and stood looking down at the three milk bottles standing in an alcove by the weed-grown steps. Nothing remarkable about those bottles—not the bottles themselves. Good stout milk bottles they were, with the entire legend of his name, address and calling, painted on them in fat red letters. "Albert Bulfinger. Milk, Eggs, and Poultry. T.T. and Grade A Our Speciality. iaa Judge's Lane, Northbrook, S.E. Tel. 04153." It made a nice red network round the bottles and served to give to the milk an added whiteness and richness. |
