She looked down on him thoughtfully, and he let his admiration of her free young poise show in his face. "I suppose things have changed?" she said. "Never was such an age of transition." She wondered what to. Mr. Ramage did not know. "Sufficient unto me is the change thereof," he said, with all the effect of an epigram.
"You are more than kind," he murmured. "But I think. . . ." Mr. Baxter waved his hand. "I mean no offence," he said. "But that man Ramage is one of the men who are going to ruin this country. . . ." "Funnily enough, Mr. Baxter, he seems to be of the opinion that you are one of the men who have already done so." The millionaire, in no wise offended, roared with laughter.
Ann Veronica thought the whole affair rather jolly. Ritter sold better food than most of his compatriots, and cooked it better, and Ramage, with a fine perception of a feminine palate, ordered Vero Capri.

Summer and winter alike, the gravest items among them all, the conifers, retain their values even in those New Orleans gardens.
This intercourse, which had been planned to warm Ann Veronica to a familiar affection with Ramage, was certainly warming Ramage to a constantly deepening interest in Ann Veronica.
