Stratton-Porter, Gene, 1863-1924

"Yes, in that event, he would," said the lady, "and the temptation is so
great, that I believe if you'll give me your address, I'll look you up the
next time I come to Multiopolis, which will be soon. I'd like to see your
Lily before I make any promises. If I thought I could manage, I could
bring her right out in the car. Tell me where to find you, and I'll see
what Peter thinks."
Mickey grinned widely. "You ain't no suffragette lady, are you?" he
commented.
"Well I don't know about that," said the lady. "There are a good many
things to think of these days."
"Yes I know," said Mickey, "but as long as everything you say swings the
circle and rounds up with Peter, it's no job to guess what's most
important in your think-tank. Peter must be some pumpkins!"
"Come to think of it, he is, Mickey," she said. "Come to think of it, I do
sort of revolve around Peter. We always plan together. Not that we always
_think_ alike: there are some things I just _can't_ make Peter see, that I
wish I _could;_ but I wouldn't trade Peter----"
"No I guess he's top crust," laughed Mickey.
