"Put on that navy-blue dress of yours and I'll take you to the show." "Oh, I've promised Mrs. Hale to go with her to the Exposition to-night," she returned, apologetically. "You did, eh?" he said, studying the situation abstractedly. "I wouldn't care to go to that myself." "Well, I don't know," answered Carrie, puzzling, but not offering to break her promise in his favour.
"No, no! be a good boy, don't muss me up now!" She wore a plain, navy-blue skirt ... wore a white middy blouse with blue, flowing tie ... easy shoes that fitted snug to her pretty little feet ... her eyes never held such depths to them, her face never shone with such beauty before. I wore a brown sweater vest with pearl buttons ... corduroy trousers ... black oxfords ... a flowing tie....
" Cad," said he, catching her, " I believe you're getting vain." " Nothing of the kind," she returned, smiling. " Well, you're mighty pretty," he went on, slipping his arm around her. " Put on that navy-blue dress of yours and I'll take you to the show." " Oh, I've promised Mrs. Hale to go with her to the Exposition to- night," she returned, apologetically. " You did, eh?
She was tall and dark, with abundant black hair, richly waved above the ample forehead; and she wore a curious Oriental-looking navy-blue robe of some soft woollen stuff, that fell in natural folds and set off to the utmost the lissome grace of her rounded figure.
With huge satisfaction she donned her neat navy-blue skirt, edged with its orange band, and her blouse with its orange collar and cuffs. "You lucker!" sighed Nora enviously. "I'd just jolly well give everything I have to be in the match to-day. It's not much sport to stand by and cheer. Oh, don't think I'm trying to get out of coming! I'm going to look on and see that you do your duty.
He was above medium height, and had a splendid physique broad shoulders, muscular limbs, light brown eyes, short brown beard, and long curling hair. He wore a navy-blue sack-coat, large checked trousers tucked in the tops of his boots, a gray woollen shirt, and a broad leather belt. He was the only man in the room who had not taken off his hat.
"You thought it was soap I was giving you, and all the time it was Maple's dark bright navy-blue indelible dye won't wash out." She flashed a looking-glass in his face, and he looked and saw the depth of his dark bright navy-blueness. Now, you may think that we shouted with laughing to see him done brown and dyed blue like this, but we did not. There was a spellbound silence.
Excitement had tinged her cheeks and lips, and her whole face had a child's smooth, pink complexion. Wavy black hair and blue eyes revealed the Irish blood that had come from the mother's veins. She wore a traveling suit of navy-blue serge. Her hat, of latest style, was made of black velvet, steel ornaments, and ostrich tips. What artist could resist admiring a woman so fair and commanding!
The navy-blue silk was quickly made in the privacy of Daisy's apartment, and she was very charming in it, and attracted a great deal of attention, and drove the young Irishman nearly crazy with her smiles and coquetries.
Suddenly or had she heard it before, a whistle burst out upon the air, a sweet and clear succession of notes, the air of a familiar song: "Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home." Some one was at hand, she sprang through the vines, the briers catching the old blue muslin, extricating herself in time to run almost against the navy-blue figure that she had not yet become familiar with.
