.
DEMONSTRATED COURTSHIP. When the Harvester saw the Girl coming toward the woods, he spread the rug, opened and placed the table and chair, laid out the colour box, and another containing the last luna. "Did the green one come out ?" she asked, touching the box lightly. "It did!" said the Harvester proudly, as if he were responsible for the performance.
"It is an omen! It means that I am to have my long-coveted pattern for my best candlestick.
It also clearly indicates that the gods of luck are with me for the day, and I get my way about everything. There won't be the least use in your asking 'why' or interposing objections.
This is my clean sweep.
