"Well—what do you suggest?"
"Marry her, sir."
"Joe, that's a great idea! Shake hands! I surely will marry her—at once—if she'll have me."
"She'll have you, sir."
"Do you really think she will, Joe?"
"I'm dead certain, sir."
"Joe, shake again. I'll speak to her when she comes home. To-morrow's Saturday, isn't it?"
"As ever was, sir."
"Then, Joe—wish me luck; I'll ask her—to-morrow!"
