It only occurred to me that, if I did not act swiftly, the poor girl would suffer a loss beside which the loss of a purse or vanity-case were trivial. Five seconds later I was on the platform. "Excuse me," I said, "I think...?" "Oh, thank you so much," said the girl. I made my way back to the carriage, and lit my pipe in a glow of emotion. "They are blue," I said to my immortal soul.
"This is mine," and Dotty went back to the jewellery counter and pointed out a silver-gilt vanity-case. "Well, of all ridiculous things!" cried Tod; "you might as well have let the fishermen keep your money!" "'Tisn't ridiculous at all!" Dotty retorted. "Mother told me I could get exactly what I wanted, and I want this dreadfully. I've wanted one for a long time.
"Damn the family!" said Lord Marshmoreton, stoutly. "There's one thing," said Billie complacently, eyeing her reflection in the mirror of her vanity-case, "I may glitter in the fighting-top, but it is genuine. When I was a kid, I was a regular little tow-head." "I never supposed for a moment that it was anything but genuine."

Natalie had raised her veil, and from a gold vanity-case was repairing the damages around her eyes. "Why don't you find something to do, something to interest you?" Audrey suggested finally.
So Dotty bought the vanity-case, and then the crowd followed Dolly to see what might be her choice. Straight to the bookshelves she went, and pointed to a set of fairy stories. They were half a dozen or more volumes bound in various colours and the set was ten dollars. "I've been just crazy for these books," she said, with a sigh of satisfaction.
