"Don't!"
"At least that is not marked. I come at last to the silver. Give me the list."
Clara sighed and extended it.
"Four solid silver terrapin dishes."
"Marked."
"Marked—Terrapin—ha! ha! Two massive, expensive, solid silver champagne coolers."
"Marked."
"Marked, my dear—for each end of the table when we give our beefsteak dinners. Almond dishes."
"Don't!"
"Forty-two individual, solid or filigree almond dishes; forty-two, Clara."
