"Go ahead," said Koko; "there are about twenty thousand things to choose from in this shop."
"A present for a lady?" queried the dark girl.
"Yes," said Jim; "a wedding present."
"I know the very thing," she said, and took down from a shelf near by an ivory fan with forget-me-nots painted by hand upon it.
"Yes, very pretty," agreed Jim; "but--er--I should prefer some other kind of flower."
The dark girl fancied she understood.
"I have another ivory fan that is just as pretty as this one. I will get it."
The fan was brought. Upon the pure ivory was painted a little sprig of rosemary.
"'That's for remembrance,'" quoted Koko, softly.
And so Jim chose the ivory fan as a wedding present for Dora.
