And Sitaram, glad that he had been of service to both a customer and his friend, hoisted his bag on his shoulders and went his way. Mrs. Srivastava had to do some shopping. She

gave instructions to the ayah about looking after the baby and told the cook not to be late with the mid-day meal. Then she set out for the Pipalnagar market place, to make her customary tour of the cloth shops. A large shady tamarind tree grew at one end of the bazaar, and

it was here that Mrs. Srivastava found her friend Mrs. Bhushan sheltering from the heat. Mrs. Bhushan was fanning herself with a large

handkerchief. She complained of the summer, which she affirmed, was definitely the hottest in the history of Pipalnagar. She then showed Mrs. Srivastava a sample of the cloth she was going to buy, and for five minutes they discussed its shade, texture, and design. Having

exhausted this topic, Mrs. Srivastava said, 'Do you know, my dear, that

Seth Govind Ram's bank can't even pay its employees? Only this

morning I heard a complaint from their sweeper, who hasn't received

his wages for over a month!'

'Shocking!' remarked Mrs. Bhushan. 'If they can't pay the sweeper they must be in a bad way. None of the others could be getting paid either.' She left Mrs. Srivastava at the tamarind tree and went in search of her husband, who was sitting in front of Kamal Kishore's photography shop,

talking with the owner. 'So there you are!' cried Mrs. Bhushan. 'I've been looking for you for almost an hour. Where did you disappear ?" 'Nowhere,' replied Mr. Bhushan. 'Had you remained stationary in one shop, i might have found you. But you go from one shop to another, like a

bee in a flower garden.''Don't start grumbling. The heat is trying enough. I don't know what's happening to Pipalnagar. Even the bank's about to go bankrupt.
