But Bert had his own ideas. When Nancy met him down town a day or two later, to go pick the coat, she found him quite unmanageable. He said that there was hurry about the coat--they were right here in the housekeeping things, why t look at fireless cookers? In the end they bought an ice-cream freezer, and a fireless cooker, and two pairs of arctic overshoes, and an ermous oval- shaped basket upon which the blushing Nancy dropped a surreptitious kiss when the saleswoman was t looking, and a warm blue sweater for Nancy, and, quite incidentally, an eighteen- dollar overcoat for Bert.
