Daisy. Lovely! But Jack's got whiskers and a beard.
Violet. So he has! Then why not this exquisite silver cigar-ash tray?
Daisy. Yes, that would be just the thing; only, unfortunately, Jack never smokes, and always walks out of the room if anybody else does.
Violet. Oh! That's awkward. This drinking-horn—what do you think of it?
Daisy (gloomily). I'm afraid Jack's a Blue Ribbonite.
Violet (after a pause). He needn't use it for drinking from. It would do for a flower-vase, if it had a stand. Anyhow, let's make haste and choose something.
Daisy. I would give him this lovely ink-bottle, only he uses a type-writer. Ah, I have it—a purse!
Violet. The question is whether Jack has it, not you.
Daisy (enthusiastically). Yes, a purse it shall be. Jack never has any money—but that is only a detail. Showy, isn't it?
Violet. Awfully pretty! Made in Germany, too, it says; that makes it so much more romantic.
