Henrietta. O, Bob, Bob! You have more than that, I am sure.
Miss Roberts. Yes, I have another half dollar, but I wish to buy the book of Fairy Tales you told me of.
Henrietta. O, never mind buying the Fairy Tales! I will tell you all of them without charging for my trouble. Come now, be good and give the whole dollar, and we will have an iced pound-cake.
Miss Roberts. Well, if you will certainly tell me all the Fairy Tales.
Henrietta. Every one of them; twice over if you choose. And now, Marley.
Miss Marley. I know all this is very improper.
Henrietta. Just for once in your life try how it seems to be improper.
Miss Marley. Well then for this time only—Here are three quarters of a dollar.
Henrietta. Now, Tommy!
Miss Thomson. I have not resolution to resist. There are half a dollar and twelve cents.
