"Take my muff," implored Marjory. "That yellow splendor lights up the whole street." "No, siree," declined Mabel. "If Mrs. Slater wants gloves she's going to have 'em.

It was plain that she had them very much on her mind. And when her hat tilted forward over one eye she left it there rather than risk damaging those immaculate lemon-hued gloves.
